Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:83.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/83.0

Steps to reproduce:

Updated to Firefox version 83.0.
I now can't get to devices by name on my internal network.
Examples - WD NAS - http://wdmycloud/
PVR - http://beyonwizt4/

Actual results:

Firefox converts the URL into a ".com" lookup and fails,
Examples -
(i) "http://wdmycloud/" is converted to "http://www.wdmycloud.com/" which fails.
(ii) "http://beyonwizt4:80" ==> "http://www.beyonwizt4.com/"

Expected results:

The URL as entered should be passed to the internal network's DNS resolver.

Please advise.

Cheers,
Geoff
