It's a self-signed certificate, (generated and?) loaded during the initial device installation.
In general, any browser does allow to accept (I don't say trust or the like) a self-signed certificate. The only exception might be with Enterprise-managed or -operated systems explicitly allowing correct PKI-signed certificates or similar.

I never change or set certificate.
As of writing, Netgear does not offer the ability to update or replace the certificate and private key on the WAX6xx nor on the WAC5xx.
