The site should be visible on the latest version of Brave, as I've just tested it on my device.
Could you check that there isn't any plugin or extension on the browser which could be preventing the connection to the site?
If you're using an older laptop, then it's possible that the browser itself is too old and is no longer compatible with the Dropbox site.
Keep me updated with any progress!

Thank you, Jay.
These days I tried everything you said. Finally, it was the update of Brave. I had a bit older version. I was afraid to install it, as my laptop could stop working. However, I was lucky (this time).
- Jay4 years agoDropbox StaffOkay, so just to check, updating the browser to the latest version worked for you?
Are you able to access the site and all the pages normally?- miguelpersa4 years agoExplorer | Level 4
Yes, you are right. It was enough updating the browser. Everything in the webpage works fine now.
Any other option did not work. It seems there is something new in the web that is not compatible anymore with previous versions of Brave (v 1.23.71).
