TG582n config not usable from Internet Explorer 10

When I try to access the router config page, several problems, which seem to be Windows 8/Internet Explorer 10 related.
Firstly, after entering admin/[myPassword] it takes around 90 seconds before the router homepage is displayed. If I do the same on XP or Windows 7, I get the same page in a couple of seconds.
More importantly, none of the links on the 'Technicolor Gateway Homepage' work. Clicking on them has no effect. Again, if I do the same on an XP or Win7 PC, the links work as expected.
I wondered if it was a java issue as I didn't have a JRE installed on the Win8 box, but I don't have it installed on the XP or Win7 boxes either, and they work fine. I did try installing JRE both 32b and 64b, but still get a slow login and no links work.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Mark

I'm not going to change my browser, or my o/s; I just want help on how to get the router config page to work with my current setup. Hadn't realised it was necessary to spell out something so obvious when asking a question, but I am a newbie.

Just downloading and installing either will allow you to view the pages FAST.

As stated, I'm not, under any circumstances, going to change my browser so please don't tell me to. If you posted a problem encountered under Linux/firefox, I doubt you would welcome a response that told you to switch to a different browser!
I am simply asking for help with getting the router page working with W8/IE10. That must be possible.

I have tried Chrome on several occasions and even alternative browsers but keep returning to FF.
You stated that you had issues with IE I merely suggested you try an alternative but YOU are being very dismissive, SO NO MORE INPUT FROM ME HELP YOURSELF !. (IF you can)

Well I haven't got W8 or IE10, so I can't help!

Is "Compatibility View" enabled in IE10? IE8 (and IE9?) used to automatically enable this for local/intranet addresses, unless certain headers were set on the pages (or it can be disabled globally in the browser).

Compatibility View - good thought but unfortunately that didn't make any difference.

i'm on a demo firmware of 10.02b (which shouldn't matter). but both the metro ui ie 10 and normal one works .
I would suggest you try resetting your ie defaults .

Strange.
I'll throw a clean (MAPS) Win8 onto a spare PC and see how that pans out...
p.s. I was running from Desktop, not 'Metro'

Clean install of W8Ent demo worked fine with the router home page.
Back to my every-day PC W8Pro and after much faffing I did a reset to defaults on IE10 and that got it working.
Many, many thanks taras for pointing me in the right direction..
I've got a sneaking suspicion I may have set some over-zealous security settings but I couldn't spot them to un-set.
1 box incautiously ticked, or unticked... many hours wasted.
