Thanks for a reply.

Lead me thru this then. I type 192.168.254.16 into the regular old IE8
or Firefox, and I wind up on a local, home, weather-reading device I'd
installed a year ago.

If I however type that into the address bar of my nifty Tor Browser, I
get the aforementioned error message, and not the weather-device. Which,
BTW, hasn't a resolvable address anyway.

That I know of.

Please help me then understand where the Wiki pages tell me how to get
to my device by typing something different.

Again OB, thanks though for answering. I just need a little steering on
this one.
