School laptop is throwing a "your connection is not private" error

With this being a school laptop, you may not have the option of loading a different web browser (sigh).

Modern browsers have become almost fanatical about protecting us from ourselves.

• They throw a fit if we attempt to connect to a web site that is not encrypted, such as (http://orbilogin.net )
• They refuse to connect if they detect anything unusual about the SSL certificate supplied by the web site.
  (The most common complaint is about self-signed SSL certificates, such as the one Netgear uses on (https://orbilogin.net ) the encrypted version of the Orbi web interface.
  It is not clear (to me) what Chrome means by "website sent back unusual and incorrect credentials".

Most of the time, I locate the option, often in very tiny print, that says, "go there anyway". The browser opens the web site, logs my instructions, and never bothers me again.

Try internet search for Chroms "website sent back unusual and incorrect credentials".
