Fund out that adding certificates ONLY works if connected with "admin" user.
Connected with another user (type=Administrator, obviously) and get the above error.
I prefer disabling "admin" user logins and use other administrator users with names not unveiling their purpose ("admin" user name can't be changed)
I hope netgears reads and fixes this, it's a a shame.
Thanks train_wreck for breaking a bit the silence in my thread :)

This is definitely a bug, but I can't report it.
The firewall is registered but displays lifetime hardware guarantee only, no chat/phone/other support.
Is there anybody from Netgear monitoring these threads ?!

It's been a week since you first posted this, so the chances of an official employee responding are falling rapidly. I will say that I have received very little info about the numerous certificate-related issues I've encountered on the FVS routers; my thread several months back about getting cert-based remote access (Mode Config) working got no bites, as did other topics/IMs from before.
