Is that 8.8.8.8?

@mhbacks

What did you mean "proxyserver reset connection" ? Was this the message that display by Firefox?

Hi, at first, sorry for the late response. I think I need a vacation. I've been using the Socks5 proxy for years and wondered why it wasn't working. Unfortunately, after reading your comments and thinking about it, I realized that I put the same crap in the proxy field :facepalm:

I'm old. Thanks for helping me across the street. best regards, Max
