How to access web interface on WAG102 with a modern browser
I am unable to open the web interface on our WAG102 access point. I've tried Microsoft Edge, IE11, Chrome and FIrefox. All report similar errors, associated with SSL/TLS. Is there any way that I can ...

I needed to reset some things on several WAG102s we have. The answer was to download and install Virtualbox (you could use another if you wanted) then go to
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/
and download a virtual machine with IE8.
It was fairly easy to get running and easily connects to the WAG102 interface.

We just experienced the same issue, and none of the snarky answers helped. However we were able to access the device using IE11 on a Windows 7 Machine by checking the Use SSL 2.0 and Use SSL 3.0 boxes in the IE - Internet options - Advanced - Security section. They are probably unchecked for a reason though, so uncheck when finished.

Seems very strange that this method would only work on a windows 7 machine, but I did what you did IE11 modified SSL options - I can ping my wg102 default 192.168.0.229 but I still can't hit it via browser.(on windows 10) I'm going to try on a windows 7 machine if that is the only issue I am going to be pretty puzzled.
