I cannot 'talk' to my gateway

more options

I can't 'talk' to my gateway. I logged in as admin, but that was all. I don't know what version of TLS my gateway supports and FFox doesn't support. What does that matter to sensible people? It's in the local network for goodness sake.

How can I maintain my gatway at 192.168.0.1 when FFox won't let me, eh?

Try putting "http://" at the beginning of the IP address. If the router can't be reached temporarily, it may switch to "https://" and fail.

Hi, ZK,

That failed. 192.168.0.1 fails. http://192.168.0.1 fails. https://192.168.0.1 fails. That gateway does support https. Is it that the FFox devs thought that deprecating TLS for local networks was needed or a good idea, or did they not even think of local networks? Duh?

The gateway screens and documentation doesn't say anything about TLS, so I assume it's TLS 1.

The gateway does work. I get to the Internet through it. I see no need to buy a new gateway. :-)

Fix FFox, please.

Does Firefox upgrade http://192.168.0.1 to https://192.168.0.1 ?

Does it work if you temporarily disable HTTPS-Only Mode ?

If I put https://192.168.0.1 on the URL line, it's unchanged.
