Constant problem: First time a link is clicked: server not found. Refresh page and server is immediately found.

Foxfire regularly gives me the error message: Server not Found -- BUT if I hit refresh, the 'not found' server opens immediately 99.9% of the time. This is really annoying. Happens multiple times per session, but not every time I click a link.

Maybe you have a problem with IPv6.

Thanks, Cor-el! I'll report back in a day or so to say if toggling IPv6 solved the problem but really appreciate your reply.

The solution worked! I haven't had the Server not Found error since Saturday so consider it a success. Thank you again, Cor-el!
