Serious browsers don’t do it (Opera Presto, IE). I haven’t verified this with HTTPS enabled, but it’s worth a shot, especially if you’re doing remote admin as he said.įun fact: it’s your cr*ppy Firefox (and I’d bet Chrome does it too, but firefox is getting really low in terms of quality, like only unintelligent decisions were accepted there – no surprise – a big business-in-the-first-place corporation trying to pose as open source underground)!

I’m not sure how one would “use the updated IP address and port number” as the RT-N66U doesn’t tell you what those are at any point during the processĪnyway, if you do happen to find yourself in the above predicament, you can fix it by switching to a different browser on any machine on your LAN and accessing the URL the error message is at.The client this message appears on isn’t disconnected from the router (thankfully).I’m not sure if what follows is due to how most browsers handle HTTPS certificates or a bug on ASUS’ part, but enabling HTTPS can easily lead to this on your next login attempt: Yep, that’s your router locking YOU out of the house In reality, the odds of that happening are pretty small, and I daresay a compromised client is more likely to attack other clients on the LAN – which are probably set to allow access from other local clients – than it is to attack your router. Yeah, I know you probably think it’s a good idea to enable HTTPS login on your router so rogue clients on your LAN can’t steal your login info. ![]() If the title of this post means anything to you, then odds are you already know where to find the setting below: Trust me on this one ![]()
