Can't login to router on iOS

Question

I'm running the latest version of iOS on my iPad Pro, and I can't log in to my router either with the Nighthawk app or by trying directly with the IP address in Safari. In Nighthawk, I receive a message of Login Timed out as in the screenshot. In Safari, I receive no response and the login simply does not proceed. I have no issues in logging in from Windows 11 with Chrome.

Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:

Thanks. I disabled Private W-Fi Address, but still can't log in. The router will not accept my password and resents a screen to create a password.&nbsp;

Thanks. I'm not inclined to go through this convoluted process to access my router on my iPad. I can access it on my pc and Androids if I have to fix something.

Ok. Can submit a bug report on the iOS device and see if this can get it working:
