??? What does this mean any one knowThis Connection is Untrusted i get this when i need to get in to my router menu
You have asked Firefox to connect
securely to httpps:// 20.20.20.5, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
Normally, when you try to connect securely,
sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
What Should I Do?
If you usually connect to
this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
Technical Details
20.20.20.20 uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed.
The certificate is only valid for dlinkrouter
(Error code: sec_error_untrusted_issuer)
I Understand the Risks
If you understand what's going on, you
can tell Firefox to start trusting this site's identification.
Even if you trust the site, this error could mean that someone is
tampering with your connection.
Don't add an exception unless
you know there's a good reason why this site doesn't use trusted identification.

Explain? Your router's menu? You mean your typing in 192.168.0.1 and its rerouting you to that IP? Thats not good, and me thinks it has nothing to do with your router. We don't need the quotes. Need more info on the background

:) Yes to Access the router menu 192.168.1.1 mine is not the default

So your typing in 192.168.1.1 from a wired connection to your router and its redirecting you to 20.20.20.5? That ip belongs to "Computer Sciences Corporation" out of Virginia. Are you doing this from work? Do you have a VPN? If not, there is a possibility you have some kind of infection infecting your host files or doing some kind of DNS redirect. I am thinking there is a simplier explanation though. Or atleast a less alarming one
