You can still use the web interface. I still do. Its my preferred why of managing my router.

maybe your device was reset somehow?
Have you tried a different pc and/or browser?

I have tried Windows, Linux, and MacOS, and I have tried different browsers. I always get the same page and the same error. It makes me think that there is something that the firmware update has broken. It is very frustrating.

Does it work through the app?
What are the led's on it doing?
the fact that it went to that page makes me think its already been reset (maybe unintional or from a power surge/failure)

Yes, it is a reality that I will probably have to accept.
I will go the app route - begrudgingly - if I cannot get anywhere with the web interface.
It looks innevitable! :(
