WPN802v2 browsers say connection not secure
WPN802v2
Windows 10
I cannot log in to the access point as the browser (e.g.) reports that (e.g. for Edge) :
'
The connection for this site is not secure
192.168.0.231 uses an unsupported protocol
ERR_SSL_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH
'
Is there any workaround for this please, or do I have to bin this otherwise apparently perfectly working piece of kit?
I can make a wireless connection to the device appearing as 'NETGEAR' from my android phone.
Holy jezz, that thing is 19 years old. Its time to retire it and get something from this decade. Its on old b/g router with super slow speeds. Unless you're on 2-6mbps dialup/dsl, this thing is bottlenecking big time. Get ride of it.

Thank you plemans! I get the hint.
I kind of feared the truth, always reluctant to add to the world's pile of junk.

I'm not a fan of throwing things away either but since b/g, you've had wireless n, then AC, then AX, then AX 6ghz, and now BE, You're so far behind that if you have any decent speed at all, you'll see a massive performance boost with an upgrade.
