Why do I get so many security alerts? Additional screenshot in comments
Dell XPS 15 9530, Windows 11 Pro 10.0.22631, x64, 13th Intel Core i9... I could go on. Hopefully that's enough info.
This is a sub for asking tech questions right? Apologize if not.
You're viewing a single thread.
Nah, this is not really a tech support community, but whatever. (Unless it is a tech support community? I always thought pcmasterrace was supposed to be a hair on the sarcastic side.)
It looks like a self-signed cert that is on your DSL modem (The subdomain was 'dsldevice'....) and I am guessing you are trying to use the web interface for your modem?
If you aren't making a connection to that device (which would have an IP address in 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x or 172.16.x.x) and you are trying to browse to an external site, then:
- There is no internet connection and your device is injecting a local address for an external DNS query to give you a hint that you need to fix yo' shit or
- Your device is super old and cannot handle HTTPS correctly. (Unlikely)
- Your DSL device is hijacked and is doing an MTM attack on a HTTPS connection. (Highly unlikely, but you never know.)
Do regular web sites work correctly, or does this happen regardless of the site you are attempting to browse to?

I just came from the "Is my PSU broken?" thread here. This sub is supposed to be like the reddit sub, but honestly whatever gets posted here is fine with me. As long as it is PC related. I just like seeing something...anything...posted. I am not going back to the other place and want it to work here.
I am more than happy to help with tech support here as well as read snarky sarcastic PCMR material if it happens to show up. We just have a lack of it atm.
