When attempting to access / sign a document sent to me by an originator, I receive this error from Firefox:

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to na2.docusign.net. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

  • The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
  • Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

I receive similar errors in Chrome and MS Edge. As a workaround, I accessed docusign.com and clicked on the Access Documents link at the top of the home page. That link took me to docusign.net and generated errors as well. This is not the first time I’ve seen this error. Docusign did work for me at one time, but recently this is a problem every time I receive a doc to sign. Firefox “more info” doc suggests this is a site certificate problem. Any ideas about underlying cause that the end user can fix? OS is MS Windows 11. Tested this on my laptop and Surface Pro tablet.

Thanks,

Robert

 

Hello, @NexusNet 

 

Welcome to the Docusign Community!

 

This type of error most of the times are related to something (firewall/Malware protection/Protocol filtering) between your machine to the servers.

 

First, try to use for example your mobile device not with the WiFi, but the phone network, if you can connect so it’s not a problem related to the servers. You can also try a different network (your home, a public spot) to access the documents, again, if the error does not occur, the problem is with the client side, not the servers.
