Chrome Certificate
After the latest updates with chrome, The certificate is not secure and I get this: This site can’t be reached The webpage at https://192.168.x.x/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved ...

Here is the solution I found:
We found a fix. Delete the user's local state file located in C:\users\(username)\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State. After deleting it the issue went away. Let me know if that works for you.
EDIT: Confirmed this is also happening on MacOS. Need to go to Library/Application Support/Google/ and Delete the Local State file from their as well.Thanks Everyone.

chrome --force-fieldtrials=RSAKeyUsageForLocalAnchors/DisabledLaunch does not work in my pc, and I can only connect with safari in my iphone.
There has no firmware update so far, may I know if there has any workaround?

Perhaps I am not doing it correctly. Windows 11 Pro. trying to open https://orbilogin.net or https://192.168.1.1
Entering URL: https://192.168.1.1/--force-fieldtrials=RSAKeyUsageForLocalAnchors/DisabledLaunch
Results in this:
Opera:
Firefox: https web site opens after warning about self-signed certificate.
Edge:

Heya CrimpOn
Looks like you are mixing several different issues and models. The --force.... is a parameter to be passed to Chromw on start-up from the command line, not magicallly added to any URL.
Around the Christmas days, I've posted refering to what I understand are Netgear people able to read and understand the problem here. Almost three months later Netgear is -unable- to create and distribute self-sighed certificates with the new mandatory (by more and more modern browsers) inlcuding the new certificate attribute. If Netgear is unable to read, unable to listen, and obviously not even able to ASK in case they don't understand.
Fits perfect to the new nightmare they caused with distributing untested beat (or more QA-code, under the flag of an SSO idea) to some RAX50v2, and more RAX4xv2, ....
I'm serously disappointed: Even the CTO (I've sent emails, PMed on LinkedIn, ...these days) keeps silent and does not show any signs or a reaction.
Reagrds,

...no idea what for I'm wasting my time here. There is -nothing- coming back from Netgear, they are simply abusing the free knowledge.

Hi James_MA,
Try using Firefox to update Firmware (Online update) and a factory reset is required after installing the patch firmware. Let me know if this fixes your issue.
NOTE: You can save a backup config file and restore it once the factory reset is done.
Kind regards,

Factory reset after firmware update doesn't correct the issue either

I am having the same issue with a customers router as well. I have tried accessing the management interface from multiple computers using both EDGE, CHROME, and OPERA all at the latest version.
Will this problem be fixed as even after a factory reset it does not fix the issue? If not do I need to suggest to my customer to move to a different product?
