It's a connection you establish on your very own network, so choose Advanced and then accept the security exception. No need to call Netgear - don't become a slave to the always raising expectations. Much more infrastructure and effort would be required to get a valid certificate - and definitively none for a generic or universal DNS name. Certificate policies do no longer allow to distribute private keys at will of the industry or us users.
Yes, I'm yet another user: So I have to point you to the fine documentation - Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX6000 Tri-band WiFi System (SXK80) User Manual on p.33 "What to do if you get a browser security warning".

Nothing I can do for you except of pushing Netgear again to create and distribute new self-signed certificates ... as I wrote in the post referred above. Not deep enough in the Chromebook world anymore, suspect a similar workaround might be possible. Say thank you to Google for pushing forward much to fast ....
You might have to go with the Chrome Beta and take controls of the extperimental features https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/10612145?hl=en
