Hi Lashn - what url are you putting in exactly? You should put in http://routerlogin.net
If you put an ‘s’ In front of http (so it reads https) then the browser thinks it’s getting an https connection which the admin panel doesn’t have (it doesn’t really need it because it’s on your local network)
Also you can ignore all those Dos attack warnings. It’s just internet noise. If you Google it you’ll see many threads on these forums explaining that it’s nothibg to be concerned about.

No, the Netgear designed "capturing" of routerlogin.com and routerlogin.net (and alternate domains for other product types like Wireless Extenders or Orbi) can't work the same way if https is used on the same (W)LAN. That's why they stick to http on all these devices (regardless of DumaOS or Netgear's OS/DK) and the users get the subject warning on modern browsers.

Spiking noise? Hardware issue on the voltage regulation. Time to file for an RMA.
I have no idea what you just said!
Is there any possible way i can make it http?
- Login would be the same for http and https. I would strongly recommend just using http. Inputting routerlogin.net in your browser should default to http anyway.
I would recommend doing a factory reset on the router and set up from scratch, setting a new admin/password.
