I operate from home and from the office, and use two networks for my internet access (office network has many security features, my home network is open and relatively insecure). When I switch from one network to the other, I have to close Firefox and restart, - otherwise I get "page not found".
This is a minor inconvenience, but it works fine.
My LAN setting is as follows:
Automatic proxy configuration URL is http://proxy:8083/
However, each time I do this, Firefox adds a fresh tab and uses its own default home page - the one you get when you upgrade from one version to the next. I have SessionSaver loaded as extension.
This is irritating, because now I have to also close down this new tab it adds in, every time I restart Firefox when moving from one network to the other.
I believe this is a bug, and I found noone else to have logged it.

This is probably rather a core than a Firefox issue.
See also previous similar reports for Camino bug 167900 and bug 327599.
