The problem is most likely from your network provider. I think you might have a very bad network or still, check to see if the date and time of the emulator you are using to run your application is correct if not correct it. Firebase is not suppose to give you that kind of error as firebase could also sometimes be accessible even when your device is not connected to the internet.
