Firefox currently blocks port 10080 to protect against a presumed security threat. Linksys routers use port 10080 to allow users to log in to the guest network so Firefox has rendered Guest Network logins to be unaccessable forcing router owner to allow "guests" to log in to the the primary lan and potentially cause issues with the very network they are trying to protect from outside issues. Firefox needs to provide a way for guests to log into the guest network within their software... particularly in the ios and android versions of the Firefox apps.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

Should not be up for a discussion or for a vote it needs to be implemented like yesterday where a user can accept the risk and continue anyway. When a website has a problem with the security certificate you display a warning message but the user is able to accept the risk and continue why was this not the case with this port?

It's better to be ignored by Linksys support team. Their ARE many 2-3 year old "HELP ME" forum posts regarding this problem that have directly involved their staff, and they aren't shy about blowing people off, but somehow I expected more from Firefox than a snotty "Kudos" and discussions about finding a fix for this rapidly aging problem.

Yes....over 20 years with FIREFOX and for some reason, I thought there would be more  serious professional consideration going on here....Sad, Sad, Sad. 🧐
