Enabling 2FA on Remote Controller with Firefox Browser
Enabling 2FA on the RC Enterprise Pro, RC Pro will require a setting adjustment to the Firefox web browser, and will require logging in more than once.
You may see an error stating "Unable to Process Request" and the Dronelink app will state that it "Failed to send verification code."
This can be solved by changing a setting in the Firebox web browser. More info from Firefox here and in the error message from Dronelink.
See screenshots below on settings to change.
In the Firefox app, open Settings from the bottom right.
Enable "Open links in apps" and log in again.
