These HTTP requests show that the site fails to recognise Firefox OS devices as smartphones.

First, the request from Firefox OS receives the full page immediately:


GET / HTTP/1.1

Compare how the request from Firefox on Android receives a redirect to the mobile site:


GET / HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Mobile; rv:26.0) Gecko/26.0 Firefox/26.0
