Enabling Remote Access on D6220

Hi Guys,

 

Just wondering if anyone else has had difficulties in being able to access their Netgear Router remotely. I've followed all the steps on the Netgear website but in both Chrome and Safari I am unable to access due to safety concerns. Is there a way to get around this?

       Firmware version?  Connected to what?

       Thanks for the helpful link.  I'd guess that there are many thousands
    of "steps on the Netgear website".

       "safety concerns"?  Care to elaborate on that?

     

       "unable" is not a useful problem description.  It does not say what
    you did.  It does not say what happened when you did it.  As usual,
    showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
    messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
    descriptions or interpretations.  Copy+paste is your friend.

      Sorry mate, don't usually use these types of forums. My firmware version is V1.0.0.62_1.0.62  

       

      Below are the Netgear Instructions I've followed as well as the error message I get in both Safari and Chrome when I visit the website specified in the Remote Management setting via the Netgear Genie. Usually in Safari you can override the blocking of a website by clicking on "visit this website" then authorising the website but this doesn't seem to work any longer.
