The Not Secure warning appears because MyFiosGateway.com uses a self-signed SSL certificate instead of a publicly trusted one. This does not mean your connection is unsafe, it only affects browser recognition.

• Self-signed certificates are common for local network devices like routers.
• Your connection remains private and secure within your home network.
• Verizon Fios has used this method for router login authentication since 2005.
