Router web portal unreachable

I cannot access router web portal (10.0.0.1) on Chrome from Macbook air M3 after upgrading to OS 27.0 returning error "*** is unreachable. ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE" no matter what I do.

I can access it from other devices. Thank you in advance.

If you have an add-on VPN app, remove it, and try again.


Does https://10.0.0.1 work? That’s with https, not http.


If you launch Terminal app, can you ping 10.0.0.1?

ping -c4 10.0.0.1


Also post your local IP address, as shown in Network Settings for your Wi-Fi adapter. It should be 10.[something], but might be 169.254.[something]

Okay, so the basic network is working.


What’s the router vendor and model?


Any add-on VPN apps? If so, remove those apps, and try again.


Given Chrome isn’t playing though (and Safari is), I’d also check for Chrome updates, and then ask Google support.

Have you got any other LAN sites you could open with Chrome? Printer or NAS maybe. That could isolate it to a Chrome or router problem.


I don't use Chrome, but if it's got the equivalent of Firefox's Troubleshoot mode (no extensions, no config changes) maybe try that.

Can you access it from other browsers on your Mac?

In Terminal can you ping it?


If so then it's a Chrome problem and you should contact Google.

My local IP address is 10.0.0.253 and Yes I can ping it succesfully.

Thank you. Yes I can ping it and I can access all other websites. I yes, I can access the portal from Safari, but I don't know what kind of Chrome config can stop this access.
