Hi there! Thanks for reaching out about the slow loading issue you're experiencing with Seabreeze.com.au on Firefox. Just to get a clearer picture—has this slowdown been happening only on Seabreeze.com.au, or are you noticing it on other websites too when using Firefox?

Sometimes, browser settings or network options can affect loading speeds, and since you mentioned it started a few weeks ago, it’s possible some settings changed or an update had an impact.

Let’s try a few simple steps first:

1. Clear the Firefox cache and cookies: Cached data sometimes causes slow page loads.
- Click the three horizontal lines (menu) in Firefox > Preferences > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data > Clear Data.

2. Check Firefox’s Proxy and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) settings:
- Go to Firefox menu > Preferences > General > Network Settings (at the bottom).
- Ensure "Use system proxy settings" is selected or try switching it to "No proxy" to test.
- Scroll down to "Enable DNS over HTTPS" and try toggling it off or setting it to "Max Protection" mode.

After changing those, restart Firefox and see if loading speeds improve on Seabreeze.com.au.

If you’ve already tried these or that doesn’t help, there may be more detailed tweaks we can explore, including checking for Firefox add-ons/extensions that might be slowing things down.

Could you let me know if these steps help or if the slowdown happens only on Seabreeze.com.au? That way I can guide you better!
