Apple TV Authentication Error

My Apple TV has a issue where I am constantly asked to log in.


And being shown the message “You need to log-in to this area on www.apple.com:80. Password will be sent in the clear”


I have reset my Apple TV and have reset my password and I’m still getting the message and can’t use the Apple Tv


does anyone have any idea what I can do to fix the issue

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 12

The Apple TV has no browser so it doesn't access any websites, and that link appears to be bogus.


I don't believe that error is in fact coming from the Apple TV, and that message is very suspicious. I wanted to see a screenshot to get a better idea of what was happening.


I don't have any issues posting pictures on the forum, what appears to be the issue on your end?
