Your Internet access is blocked

Firewall or antivirus software may have blocked the connection.

Try:

Checking the connection
Running Windows Network Diagnostics

ERR_NETWORK_ACCESS_DENIED

Then I think the issue is with security restrictions in your browser, or PC firewall.

The router's UI pages are accessed via an HTTP site, not the normal encrypted HTTPS site and some security settings may well block access to any URL that begins http://

Although this sounds like the router is insecure, it is not. The UI can only be accessed from devices that are locally connected to it, it cannot be accessed from the internet, as TalkTalk strictly block this.

Sorry, but it is your PC that is causing the problem & without it in front of me, there is not much I can do to identify the problem. However, let's start with some basics, is this running Windows, which firewall is it using & which browser are you using? Have you tried a different browser?
