Question for computer wizards
« on: 08 October 2025, 09:55:02 »
I've taken delivery of a new laptop because my old laptop does not support Win 11.

When I try to access my router settings, Edge says access is blocked as its an unsafe site.

I've put the 192 etc into trusted sites but still can't get access.

Any ideas, I've searched the internet but none of the solutions seem to work.

You normally get a continue anyway button....try firefox for example, see if that gets you in?

No continue button.

I'll download Firefox later and see if that works.

I've tried Chrome and get the same result.

Thanks.

Just tried my router on a brand new 11 (25h2) install, and i only get a warning in the address bar, nothing to click, it just works, so sounds like youve amended something to be 'more secure'

Are you running third party antivirus / firewall?

I'm using Norton, but always have, no problem on the Win 10 machine.

Never interfered before on all Win 10 machines.

Just tried Firefox - same problem.

Checked the settings in Norton, cannot see anything that's blocking it.

Checked the settings in Windows Seurity, again cannot see what's blocking it.

Presume your PC date and time are accurate?  that can have some strange effects if out.

Its weird, not something Windows does by default, nor can I think how I would make it.

So....Is it all insecure sites, or just your router.

Try http://example.com/
 and I mean that site specifically, despite the name.

If I enter http://bthomehub.home/ then I can get into my router.

Unbelievable!

I've always gone in using 192 etc.
