Safe browser checks

Test one browser variable at a time.

Use the exact approved address, avoid old copied links and document whether the issue changes with a clean tab or another connection.

Browser sequence

  • Confirm the complete address before opening or entering account information.
  • Close old tabs and launch one new tab rather than repeatedly refreshing a redirect loop.
  • If an old destination persists, remove data for that site only after noting that saved session data may be cleared.
  • Read security, download and permission warnings; do not bypass a warning when the source is unclear.

Network comparison

Wi-Fi

Run one controlled test

Record whether the page resolves, redirects or times out. Avoid multiple simultaneous tabs.

Mobile data

Repeat the same action

Use the same verified address. A different result suggests a connection-specific issue, not a final diagnosis.

Record

Keep useful context

Note time, browser, connection and the exact visible message before asking for help.

Safety boundary: never send a password, OTP, recovery code or payment detail to someone offering to “fix” a browser route.

FAQ

Browser questions

Should I clear all browser data first?

Not necessarily. Start by closing duplicate tabs and retrying the verified address. Clear site-specific data only if an old redirect persists and you understand what will be removed.

Does switching networks prove that a route is working?

No. It helps isolate a connection issue, but the destination and page behaviour still need to be verified.
