We already know Netgear/Orbi is horrible at this part (login page/prompt/no valid SSL certificate/no changing admin user/etc.), but now this where it can't keep up with browsers security.

 

If you look at the attached image, you'll see when I got to my router it doesn't get a login prompt/pop-up, just unauthorized page and wants me to reset my admin password. I don't because I then just log in via iOS app or Chrome fine. In Edge, I have this site whitelisted, pop-ups allowed, etc. 

 

Any other thoughts from people using Orbi + Edge?
