Cant establish secure connection

Trying to access Google classroom for my daughter and keep getting error messages. The attached is the message on safari but also get similar messages with Edge (your connection isn't private - NWT::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID)

I am guessing it is something to do with router or armor security settings because if I hotspot the mac to my phone it connects to the link.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    try using googles dns at 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4

    or cloudfare at 1.1.1.1

    it could be a dns issue with your isp

    What modem do you have? 
    What firmware is on the router? 

    Do you have armor activated? 

    Does any other device have issues or just the one? 

    doe sit happen over wifi or wired?
