I'm trying to set a wireless D-Link router (DI-624M). I've followed each and every step the manual says (cables, IP, mask, gateway and DNS as suggested by support.dlink.com, etc). Everything would be ok until I try to use the setup wizard using Internet Explorer 7 with the URL http://192.168.0.1. When this logon pop-up screen appears I use "admin" as username and nothing as password, just as the instructions state.

Then I got the following message:

"The server 192.168.0.1 at DI-624M requires a username and password.

Warning: This server is requesting that your username and password be sent in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection)."

I disabled both Norton Internet Security and Spyware Doctor, set Internet Explorer security options to default and turned off its popup blocker.

Is there anybody who can tell how to set this "basic authentication without a secure connection" please?

Thanks in advance.

IE can't tell where you are going and is giving a generic popup message. If you x out or hit OK you get to the admin page of the router don't you?

Give a person a fish, they eat for a day. Suggest they internet search and they learn a skill for a lifetime.

I'm getting this same error message when I try to access certain rss feeds and a couple of websites. The only thing I can find online requires writing a lot of code. Is there another way of doing this, such as adjusting settings on IE?

Thanks txjen77 for your interest. Respect to your question I must say I really don't know, because in my case it was the router itself that was damaged somewhere inside. I took it to the seller together with its guarantee papers and he received it and gave me back a brand new one. I'm sorry for not being of any help to you.
