Rbs20 is sattelite ethernet is connected but no internet connection

I have an orbi RSB20 satellite that I have for ethernet for my iMac. it has been working fine until around last week when it decided to just not work overnight. I have been able to use the main wifi in the house but whenever I plug in the ethernet cable into my computer, it disrupts my connection with a "your connection is not private" on chrome whether I'm already on my wifi or have turned the wifi off. I have tried turning off the satellite for the entire day but the same thing happens. I also checked if there were any firmware updates on the orbi app but there were none. The parental controls on the circle app are also turned off. I would really appreciate any help.

    This appears to be a signal from the Chrome browser that it is not happy with a specific web site.

    What happens when all web browsers are closed, the iMac is restarted, and connected to WiFi?

        The Chrome browser does this.  What happens when you use Safari?
