Can't access Router homepage?

ten minutes ago I accessed my routers homepage to reboot it.  

 

Now I can't access it, it says "Access to the hub manager now requires a secure HTTPS connection  - Switch to HTTPS (button)

 

Click the button, nothing happens.

Yes you can access it. Just continue as browser describes: Hub Warning (plus.net)

Are you a little bit simple? First, that's not even the same message.  Second, which part of "Click the button, nothing happens" did you not understand Huh

@cjwinternet 

can you access the router if you use https://192.168.1.254/ directly ( and accept the certificate security warning )

It's got nothing to do with the security warning.  It's literally the image that I attached again below.

Edit, I fixed it

I understand that, I was suspecting that the browser wasnt handling the router generated force switch url and so suggested entering the https: url directly to eliminate the force switch link as the problem

Which is exactly the matter addressed! 🤣

Good! What was the fix? It might be useful to know.

No, you tried to address what would happen in the NEXT screen, when you change protocol.  It's only then that you would ever get the certificate security warning.  

And no, I won't tell you what I did to fix it.
