Hi Stephen,
Its a NAS Duo V1 running the 4.1.17 mod https://community.netgear.com/t5/forums/replypage/board-id/readynas-general/message-id/47827
, which I use to backup my Unraid self built NAS. I edited virtual.conf (both) the one in etc/frontview/apache
and one in etc/default/etc/frontview/apache.
The change worked as I no longer get the error ssl msg and got the correct response when I restarted frontview.
Since I only use it as a backup it's not a bit deal as I power it on once a week run a RSYNC from my Unraid server then
power off backup NAS with a curl script. I've tried chrome/edge & firefox all the same this site can't be reached refused to connect.
Cheers
Ken

The easiest solution I've found for accessing older browser based devices is to simply use a portable version of the older browser it requires. Firefox 52 ESR 32-bit has done well for me for all these including both my Netgear NAS units.
