Can only access router through IE
How come I can only access routerlogin.net from internet explorer? I cannot access it through any other browser. If Big Daddy MS is phasing out IE then eventually I won't be able to access my router ...
Hi micselafey,
Good day!
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
First of all, we do apologize for the inconvenience of not getting back to you immediately due to the backlog in the system. Have you tried accessing the C6300 page using other devices maybe? Have you tried https://routerlogin.net? Can you provide us the version of your web browsers so we can check at it and see if we are having similar issues?
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
Regards,
Oliver

olympos1625 Oliver, this is caused by several <null> characters in the HTTP header placed by the router Web server. Newer/modern browers refuse to continue on errors or invalid information - IE11 does not care about the null's. Check the links referred above - and bang on some Netgear tables for not fixing this man year old bug....
I was actually able to once again access the router via IE, but who knows if I'll have problems in the future.
Thanks for all your suggestions.
Mike
