Random Chrome Router Connection Alert

Hello! Bitdefender gives me an alert sometimes when I browse Chrome to an IP: 192.168.8.1, which is my router IP address. This happen randomly when i dont have my router IP website open. The router reset didn't help with the issue. Can something else send a 192.168.8.1 IP connection request? Might I be compromised? Multiple AV scaners show that my system is clean. Also, all of my extensions should be clean

Ok disabled it, but why does Malwarebytes browser guard mark the page as malware/trojan?
