| 1397145 | 2015-03-24 05:12:00 | Hi folks.. Went to log into my router last night to do some port forwarding and got a pink/purple screen with 400 bad request. The router is a Netcomm NB6plus 4WN ADSL2+. Been faultless for last couple of years. Clicking refresh and trying another two or three times and I get to the point of entering username :admin and my relevant password. Sometimes it takes me straight in and other times flicks me back to 400 bad request page. I'm using Chrome as the browser. AVG as the firewall software This is a relatively new pc - few weeks old and I haven't had the need to login to the router previously on this machine so not sure if its my machine or the router..Gateway appears correct in the router and the settings (that I understand) appear correct. I had the PC wired through a netgear switch so then plugged it straight into router and same issues - sometimes fine, sometimes not. All network traffic is stopped when I'm attempting to login in case that was swamping it.. In general, my internet appears 100% good - getting the normal up and down speeds from speedtest, no lag, good torrent speeds etc..Just never seen this bad request on logging into the router. Any clues or pointers to start me off re troubleshooting thanks? Ged |

| 1397147 | 2015-03-24 09:08:00 | I use to get this with a oldish modem, and refreshing seem to make it work. Wasn't a big enough problem for me to fix as its rare that I would enter the router. What web server is it running? Mine was using microhttpd I think. Tried updating the firmware to see if problems were fixed? Cheers, KK |
