I can use the www. webstie but just not the https thats so odd
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?
- Netduma-FraserSep 24, 2018NetDuma PartnerLogin 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.- schumakuSep 24, 2018Guru - Experienced User
