@Topcat39 Ignore the 'not safe' bit and continue. The imposition of HTTPS for router logins is another ill thought out 'safety' ploy by people who really should know better, but...

As I am not with PN these days, I haven't seen this in action, but you are perfectly safe to continue.

It is a 'real thing', and not a scam, but it is ill thought out and badly implemented.
