I can not connect to non-secure (just http:) web GUI pages used on device settings. I have tried a few of my local devices.

routers, modems, etc. have straight http insecure protocols. I get can not connect to server messages. The are addressed as local ip addresses.

Where can I whitelist or bypass a required https: where it is http: protocol.

Thanks.

Traced problem to the "temporary" installed (with update) safe browser add-on.

This add-on needs a manually available for entry white list such as the IP addresses of my web based GUI device screens.

It also does not give messages for some pages it blocks such as money.cnn.com for whatever reason.

All access problems went away by disabling this add-on (which i did not know it had been automatically installed). I will enable it when it offers a user entry white list.
