I am trying to address my Linksys router. The authentication is failing with the following error message displayed

401 Authorization Required Browser not authentication-capable or authentication failed.

I am able to address the router using Internet Explorer.

Ik had dit probleem ook. Vinkje weggehaald bij 'websites laten weten dat ik niet gevolgd wil worden'. Hierna was het probleem opgelost

English translation (This did work for me.):

"I had this problem too. Tick ​​away at 'Tell web sites I do not want to be tracked.' After doing this, the problem was solved."
