Routers typically don't use HTTPS for their own administrator web pages (because they don't have a real SSL certificate onboard)

 

This isn't generally considered to be a security issue because these pages are only accessible from the local network, and if there's a hostile actor inside your LAN then you've got bigger things to worry about.
