I've noticed quite a few sites not working due to certificate errors on 6.2 (pro 6) with some apps (sickbeard, etc). Poked around with wget and the problem is that in /etc/ssl/certs I have: $ ls -a...

Well it's been a few weeks and this is probably not the best way to do this. It might be ok to just install it but I don't know what netgear did so I just wanted the missing cert files. I ran apt-get with the -d download only option.
apt-get -d install ca-certificates=20130119+deb7u1
That puts the right kit in /var/cache/apt/archives. You can unpack it to some directory you've created with dpkg -x.
dpkg -x filename.deb ~/certs
(I don't remember what the deb filename was).
Then it is a matter of restoring the missing files. I was being cautious and didn't want to overwrite anything. So I wrote a find/exec statement that would find links with missing files in /etc/ssl/certs and then copy the file. All the missing files were needed in /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla. So with hindsight I think you could just populate that directory without overwriting existing files and get all the ones that are missing. Make sure owner and permissions of the new files are the same as the ones already there.
