Note that the timeout is set to 5 days. Please make sure to provide the information asked when filling the issue. It's hard to help without these details. After how much time do you get a disconnection ? What browser are you using? On what OS ? Are you accessing the web page through a reverse proxy or directly via the IP of the machine running the container ?

I apologize for the brief initial report; I was submitting it from my phone. The disconnection occurs within just a few minutes if there is no activity in the Firefox Docker browser. I'm using Microsoft Edge, both the latest version and version 121.0.2277.112 (Official build) (64-bit) specifically on Windows 10/11. Interestingly, I've observed that the timeout issue doesn't arise when I have my security camera feed running within the Firefox Docker container. Additionally, I've taken the precaution of adding my domain to Edge's "Never put these sites to sleep" list, considering the possibility that Edge might be terminating the tab where Firefox is running.

And are you accessing the web page via the IP of the machine running the container ?

Also, did you try with another browser ? From another machine ?

Accessing via host/domain name. Tried using chrome/edge from home and also from work. Same issue. I've noticed that even with the live camera feed running it still disconnects "Firefox - Disconnected". Have to reconnect after a few minutes every time.

From what I understand, you are accessing the container through a reverse proxy. There is a high chance that the reverse proxy is the one terminating the connection.

I experienced the same timeout issue through a reverse proxy. Is there any solutions to the problem? Thanks.

I know from another issue report that this is due to the setting of my reverse proxy. Do you happen to know how to adjust the setting if I am using Synology's embedded reverse proxy service? Thanks

Try to increase the Proxy send timeout and Proxy read timeout settings.
