Strange redirect when accessing Huawei H112-370

I recently ordered 5G broadband from Three. I'm trying to get to the bottom of some issues but this one currently has me stumped.

The default IP address for the device is 192.168.8.1 which should allow me to access the router settings, however it instead gives me a 307 redirect to https://hirouter.net/. This happens regardless of browser/device.

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.8.1
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:83.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/83.0

I can get around it by accessing the page via https, but this behaviour seems unusual. It may be noteworthy that the device did not seem to be brand new. When it arrived there was another SIM already inside the device.

I think this may be because Firefox uses DNS over HTTPS now by default. The DNS response of 192.168.8.1 that it's getting isn't going to match what it's getting back from it's servers and is giving you an error because of that.

Only in USA uses DoH by default afaik.
 
I have the same issue, wrote more about it here :


On both Safari + Chrome on Mac. I had to manually add the intermediate certificate and force the OS to trust it :(
