### Windows thinks there is no internet connection, but there is one. [#315](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/issues/315) ### Windows thinks there is no internet connection, but there is one. [#315](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/issues/315)

The stats can take a little while to process, and this is just because it's being run on a low-power device! If you have something running on the pi that uses a lot of processing power, the stat calculations could take longer than usual. To fix the stats from timing out, edit `/etc/php5/cgi/php.ini`, increase `max_execution_time` and restart the `lighttpd` service.

### FireFox displays 'Unable to connect' instead of blocking the ad [#303](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/issues/303) ### FireFox displays 'Unable to connect' instead of blocking the ad [#303](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/issues/303)
Certain ad networks use iFrames in order to display their ads. Depending on your adlist selection the pi-hole can block these ads, however in FireFox there is an error displayed (instead of a whitespace). This can make it look like something broke. To fix this you can use a FireFox extention called uBlock, which can be used to hide those elements. You can find this extenion on the [uBlock github page](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock) Certain ad networks use iFrames in order to display their ads.
