Hello ,
Does anybody here know to make it work the HTTPS?
on the administration-management tab, i have http and https both protocols selected , web gui management enabled , use https ticked , web gui port :4443. I have tried different settings with only https as protocol or different ports 443, 4433 with no success . https is crossed by two parallel lines , that means it does not work .

Never tried management from the WAN, but for management from within my network, I use https with no problems. I gather that the secret is selecting only one of http or https. Apparently things don't work if you select both. (I forget where in the forums I came across that.) _________________ 2x Netgear XR500 and 3x Linksys WRT1900ACSv2 on 53544: VLANs, VAPs, NAS, station mode, OpenVPN client (AirVPN), wireguard server (AirVPN port forward) and clients (AzireVPN, AirVPN, private), 3 DNSCrypt providers via VPN.

I've tried selecting https, save, de-selecting http, save, apply, reboot, and lost access to the router completely. I haven't tested it recently, mainly because I don't want to do a full reset and reconfigure to fix it. It could be that some devices require direct CLI nvram variable manipulation for it to work, but I haven't invested the time into it. I do know that you're *supposed* to specify the port and it is *supposed* to work when you browse to https://router.ip.address.here:spedified.port.number. here, but again, I haven't messed with it in a while.
