SG2100 changing to http and port - cant login
-
Twice today I have tried to change to http and a port number, 8081 and 4848, just if there were a strange bug with the port number.
I save and get thrown out... accepted behavior.
Go to http://192.168.1.1:8081 get to the login screen try to login, my password isn't working. Not pfSense either.
I have tried making a console connection to change the password, it doesn't help.
At the end I decided to factory restore it.
That is where I am now again today.
Anyone else seen this behavior? Is there a solution other that to factory restore it? -
I have seen exactly that behaviour using Firefox for a site that it has a stored login.
Whenever I've hit it I have been able to connect from another browser without a problem.
It looks like it's just not sending a password rather than pfSense is rejecting it.

@stephenw10 That I will have to try! I have been using Safari mostly. Just another browser! Good catch! Thanks!

I can confirm this issue, I restored my SG2100 and first up I did change to http and port 8081. I was not able to login using Brave.
I was however able to login via ssh.
I changed browser to Midori (doing this on a Manjaro Linux install) then I was able to login and I got a log entry on my ssh session stating that a successful login was made.Now I tried to switch back to Brave, I try to login, I do see the same message in the ssh session that a successful login was made but the browser blinks and empties the login fields and does not login.
Starting a private window and trying to login succeeds. So this has to be some kind of caching issue.
I can confirm that it is a caching issue, deleting the browser cache does do the trick. After that I am able to login in again.
