Mozilla Firefox keeps dropping my internet connection

I've had this problem for a while now, the time I try to play a video or any other media and share it on Discord or other application, my internet connection keeps dropping and it stays like that for about a minute (I tried to check it with my ping command to my router and it shows that internet completely dies with no response back). It only occurs with Firefox, it works perfectly fine with other browsers like Chrome or Vivaldi. It was fine a year ago, I didn't have this problem. I have ethernet connection, Win10 version 21H2.

Just the same, have your ISP check your service.

Let's do a hard reboot of the router and anything else between the computer and the web. Turn all devices off. Wait for a slow count of ten, then restart.


Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
