Funnily enough Google has been aware of this bug since the earlier v77 beta release and they even fixed it back then (<a href=\"https:\/\/bugs.chromium.org\/p\/chromium\/issues\/detail?id=992639#c59\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>), although while working on some HTTP auth changes the bug was accidentally reintroduced back into their &#8220;<em>stable<\/em>&#8221; branch.<\/p>\n<p>The obvious workaround for this issue, until v78 or v79 are released, is to simply use a different browser to access your router (Edge, Firefox, Safari etc.). Alternatively you could launch Chrome, then past this into the address bar (without the speech-marks) &#8220;<strong><em>chrome:\/\/flags\/#http-auth-committed-interstitials<\/em><\/strong>&#8221; and select &#8216;<strong>Disabled<\/strong>&#8216; (restart the browser after doing that).<\/p>\n<p>The bug mostly impacts Netgear routers, as well as some re-branded but still Netgear based devices used by broadband ISPs, although similar issues have been spotted on a small number of other devices too. Most people rarely access their router\u2019s admin page and so probably won\u2019t have noticed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anybody using the popular Google Chrome website browser, which since 10th September has been updated to its latest v77 release, should take note that if you own a Netgear and some other broadband routers then due to a bug you may be unable to login via the device&#8217;s web-based admin page (192.168.1.1).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[479],"class_list":["post-19470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-security"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
