You can accept this in the browser and continue. It's just the browser letting you know that the HTTP connection is not using HTTPS which is not required when your on the LAN side of the router/modem. Just continue, it's ok.

Also tried the ip, http://routerlogin.com, http://www.routerlogin.net, http://www.routerlogin.com, I verified that my password is correct. Username is of course admin. I tried logging in from IE, Chrome and Firefox. Different versions of the same message.
Please help.

Thank you all for your help, but I give up. When I put in routerlogin.net it now asks for my user id and password. As soon as I do that I get an unauthorized message. Next time I need a new WiFi I will try another company, maybe one that just sends me an email that I can immediately connect with to update firmware.

Be sure you are entering in the correct PW for the admin log in. If your not sure. Factory reset the modem and walk thru the setup wizard with a web browser and this time write down all important information. Its not that hard.

It might also be worth pointing out that pretty well all router brands, and makers of many other things, have exactly the same routine for accessing the controls on their devices.
And as you point out, you have to get things right. If someone is entering the right details and it does not work, then look for the underlying problem.
Login failures are invariably down to getting the configuration wrong or to something else on the network getting in the way. Browsers are good at blocking access. Operating systems can do it to.
