FVS336G How do I change the certificate presented from 192.168.1.1 (Default admin)
I have the FVS336G installed to load balance between two internet providers (small office) The admin page is SSL secured with a self signed NetGear CA certificate - After I add this certificate into...
Hi woodd,
The FVS336Gv1 does not have a console port whereas both the FVS336Gv2 and FVS336Gv3 does have a console port. However, there is still no option to update the admin certificate nor swap out the certificate file via a console connection.
As per the CLI reference manual, it says on page 6: "You cannot generate and upload a certificate through the CLI..." You may access the CLI reference manual here.

Hi scsailor,
Kindly answer the questions below:

b. What is the Operating System of your old laptop?
c. What is the current firmware of your FVS336G?
d. Did you make any changes on the settings of the FVS336G?
I look forward to your response. Welcome to the community! :smileyhappy:

Hi DaneA,
a. Have you tried using other browsers like Firefox or Safari?
I am using firefox 41.0.2. I've tried setting the about:config security.tls.version.min to 0 and also using the SSL Version Control to enable SSLv3 for a one time connection, but they both failed. (Btw, I also have the same problem with an 802.11 linksys wireless access point.)
b. What is the Operating System of your old laptop?
I had Ubuntu something.31 on an old netbook, but somehow it got updated when someone else was using it and now it fails with something.40. I can borrow another Ubuntu 10.04 based laptop that still connects. My failing laptops are a Windows 7 PRO plus a Surface with Win 10. The Win7Pro system runs OpenSuse under Oracle Virtual Box.
c. What is the current firmware of your FVS336G?
Gee, If I could connect, I could probably find out. :) Using the borrowed laptop I found "System Info"... Name: FVS336G FW Version: 3.0.5-25.
d. Did you make any changes on the settings of the FVS336G?
I'm not sure as you change a lot of things to accommodate various support scenarios. I didn't do anything so advanced that I didn't understand what I was doing (which is limited as I'm a kernel engineer, not a network expert). I certainly didn't do anything to mess with security or certificates. I setup things like routing groups directed to either one or the other of the ports as well as running load balancing.
As I mentioned, I'm more than willing to upgrade the hardware to a newer version if I could get a pointer (other than eBay which is not always that reliable.) In the bigger scheme, this hardware is a small part of the overall system setup. I like the dual WAN ports as I have both a standard telcom modem and a cable modem, and the later while faster gets bogged down with traffic esp. starting around 5pm.
And it allows interruptions from either one or the other as they depend on separate power souces for the network infrastructure.
Thanks for any help you can provide! My recreational email address is: sc50sailor at gmail.com if needed.
