Privacy Error notice

I just connected my new Netgear Router to a Spectrum Modem, and get a "Privacy Error" notice. I know this is because my browser is not configured correctly with https. How do I ensure my new Netgear Router uses https?

    Are you trying to reach the router's web ui?  Or are you trying to reach a different site?
