How do I turn on the Security for my ORBI RBR50 ?
Continually get a message on our iphones and ipads that says " this man -in-the-middle attack seeks to alter a website's content to mislead or defraud ussers"

Well, that is certainly frightening.
- Is it on every web site, or only on some web sites?
- Is this Orbi configured as a "router" (the default) or as an Access Point (AP)?
- How does the message identify the Orbi as the culprit "in the middle"?
Hi Crimp On
The message says "Orbi WiFi network is compromised, The man -in -the- middle attack aims to alter a website's content to mislead or defraud users. "
This message will just pop up on our iPhones, iPads and lap top devices, sometimes when you just open the phone or ipad and sometimes when we are on various random sites.
Thanks for your help.
Are there any "non Apple" devices available? (or, can you entice a "heathen Android person" to come over - with "mask of course")?
