This problem has been reported while testing Tail's "Download and Verify Extension" (DAVE), see https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/10686 In order to reproduce: 1. Configure Firefox to use a Sock5 proxy 2. Start a big (~1GB) download 3. Disconnect the proxy 4. Wait for download failure and reconnect the proxy 5. Try to resume the download Expected result: the download is resumed from the point where you left it. Actual result: the download can't be resumed and fails. A work-around monkey-patching Download Manager's code is implemented here: https://git-tails.immerda.ch/ma1/download-and-verify-extension/tree/tails-download-and-verify/lib/downloader.js#n30
