Can't login to 192.168.1.1 on Asus router

I'm getting this when I try to connect to the router:

ERR_NETWORK_ACCESS_DENIED

I'm pretty sure that it's Bitdefender Antivirus Plus who is denying me from connecting to the Asus RT-AC87U router. Turned off Windows Wirewall, used my iPad to connect to router succesfully was no hinder. Tried to manage exceptions with 192.168.1.1 and router.asus.com without any success.

The whole point of buying an Asus router is to use it. Experiment with firmware and so on. Why blocking it and not telling how to approve it.

What should I do?
