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?

Edmund

Yes it does work for SM 2.40, and no it does not work in the latest FF 
50.  What do you recommend now?

 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?

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.

This might be bug #435013.  See
.  Currently, there
is no work-around; and I do not see any indication that a fix is being
developed.


Probably not since it's clear-text instead of https:

A username and password are being requested by http://192.168.0.1


I'd check javascript is enabled & cookies are allowed, then try
disabling addons or starting seamonkey in safe mode.

Lee



No joy on Lee's suggestions.  Identical symptoms.

David Ross's pointer to bug 435013, I think, does not apply, as Lee 
pointed out.  Not a cert issue.


I'll wait to see if other suggestions come in before filing a bug report.
