 I think this may be a bug in seamonkey V2.46 Build identifier:
 20161213183751 because the very same login using the Google Chrome or MS
 Edge browsers work just fine - i.e. a successful router login.

 I can find no setting in about:config that seem to control
 authentication capabilities.

 My workaround is to use the other browsers, but I normally use seamonkey
 for everything.

 Have you seen this?  Ideas?  Bug report it?

 Thanks,

I seem to recall a similar problem accessing a Linksys E1200 a while
back. I can't remember exactly what fixed it but 'think' I resolved it
by enabling TLS 1.0 (Preferences|Privacy & Security|SSL/TLS). For certs
I have: 'Client Certificate Selection: Select Automatically', OCSP
unchecked.

There are also suggestions that turning off "Do not track" does the trick:
https://community.linksys.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/Firefox-cannot-access-WRT120N-setup-but-IE-can/td-p/366977/page/3
and
https://www.google.com/#q=Browser+not+authentication-capable+or+authentication+failed
but I don't recall ever turning on that in Firefox or SeaMonkey - might
be worth checking.

I'm not entirely sure why the build identifier would make any
difference; and since you've tried the safe mode, can you try it
with 2.40?  What about Firefox?

Re: SM 2.46 hangs trying to print

Probably. But SeaMonkey might do something a little differently or missing a 
code patch here and there. As said not the first time I experienced a print 
lockup after upgrading but overall its imho only Gecko code.

These are not used/set/reset in SeaMonkey code. -1 sounds like some sort
of default and is also used in Firefox.

Seems the print dialog and functions got a major update in Gecko 49
which corresponds to 2.46:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1189846

reading bugzilla id=1189846, it looks like these are major code changes 
related to printing, and much of it appears to be experimental.

Where are you, down under? As I type this my county has it's knickers in

Just at the moment, I'm house-sitting, or, more correctly, dog-sitting 
for my sister and her family as they visit the in-laws through-out 
Scotland and England. I've just been watching the evening news where one 
of the articles was about a Snow storm which has apparently been 
widespread over Europe. I don't know if it's effected England, though.


I'm currently in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia where today's top temp 
was about 37C which is about 100F. My previous home (Wodonga, Victoria) 
hit 39.5C, call it 104F.


Cross-posted to, and Followup set to, mozilla.general as I'm sure 
SeaMonkey doesn't need to know my current weather conditions.
