Please be informed that firmware v2.5.0.38 and v2.5.0.40 were pulled out from the update server.
The newly released firmware v2.3.5.34 fixes the web SSL certificate (https). If you are having issues with firmware 2.5.0.38/40, please downgrade the firmware to 2.3.5.30 or apply firmware 2.3.5.34. Please see download links:

Why are they having such a hard time with firmware and this product? Its been 3-4 years since this device was released.
