Can you try to visit “about:addons” and click the “Check for updates” in the gear icon menu to see if it works?
For me it’s checking for like 30 seconds and then it says no updates found.
Not only the check should take only a second, but there are also updates I expect.
Plus it works fine in my ESR, so it feels like a bug in 107.
I have noticed similar behavior many times recently, though I haven’t checked if there are any updates I am missing.
Also just saw it working with 106.0.2. Then I updated to Firefox 106.0.3 and next time it failed!?! So maybe just a bit unstable?..
In the browser console I see all requests are timing out, for example:

There was a similar issue not long ago, but I can’t remember where, it was some GitHub repo that serves these updates and it had a wrong URL or something…
We are currently experiencing issues with add-on updates when the user has a relatively large amount of add-ons installed. We’re investigating the root cause of the issue and can hopefully fix it soon.
Thanks @juraj.masiar for bringing this to our attention and reporting the issue.
