My website is live, but Firefox won't show it

My website, www.bluecollaru.com www.bluecollaru.com has been verified live in MS Edge, and by GoDaddy And it's verified it's live on Chrome for Android and by isitdownrightnow.com

This happened just last night. If I type the URL directly into the Firefox address bar I get this message "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site. We can’t connect to the server at www.bluecollaru.com."

I have cleared cache, cookies, history, cleared the Managed WP site cache, had GoDaddy clear the global cache, I've rebooted router and WiFi, I have disabled all plugins, allowed cookies (although my site doesn't use cookies) I get the same error in Private Mode.

I can do a Google search and the site comes up - I click on the name and it works just fine.

Anything I haven't done?

@cor-el,

Thank you and I apologize - you got me to thinking about the www part not being in the address.

It turns out that there wasn't a CNAME record for www in my DNS manager.

Easy to fix, and it works.

Sometimes it's the simplest thing.

Omit the www. prefix and try this URL:

Thanks, but that's not the issue. Same results.

What DNS service do you use ?

The DNS Lookup service on the about:networking page resolves bluecollaru.com to this IP: 192.124.249.67

@cor-el, that up resolves to a sucuri firewall. I need to look at that.

The DNS 'A' record is also that IP address. I'm not sure how that works, but I'll look into it.

According to my GoDaddy account the site is using 

default nameservers ns01.domaincontrol.com

I'll update this thread in the morning with any results.

Thanks for asking the question and helping out.

If you have any other thoughts is be open to them.
