Are you tying it out with commas or periods? as you used commas in your post.

with periods it should work 192.168.0.1

You can also try to prefix with the proper protocol (http or https): http://192.168.0.1

Thanks, but that didn't work either. I see I did type in commas instead of periods, but that was just in the message, not in the actual URL try; I also Copy&pasted it and it times out.

You can check the connection settings.

  • Settings -> General -> Network: Connection -> Settings

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

See "Firefox connection settings":
