MS Edge says it's disconnected from the internet in Developer Mode

This has been happening for a while, and I've been wondering why. I couldn't find anything else related to this, so I thought I'd ask. And yes, I have been connected to the internet while this happens.

Each time I enter developer mode in MS Edge, it says it's disconnected, however, upon exiting and refreshing the page it loads normally. Sometimes, this doesn't happen when just entering Dev Mode, but upon resizing the window (see image - "Dimensions: Responsive"). Doesn't seem to happen on Brave or Chrome, just Edge.

Things I've tried (but to no avail):

  1. Reset the browser storage
  2. Reinstalled Edge
  3. Updated to the latest

Solution

  • Well, based on the image you provided, I did some tests and I found that the reason might be this:

    By default, it chooses the option: No throttling enter image description here

    And then you may have accidentally changed its option to: Offline

    After this, when you close and reopen devtools, you will see the image in your post,like this: enter image description here

    So you just need to modify it to the default option No throttling to fix the issue.
