Allow VPN Profiles download from GenieApp when remotely connected.
If you generate new certificates ( due to Firmware upgrade for instance ) you are forced to restart your router immediately after this process. When the router restarts (now with the new certificates) your existing VPN Clients and its configurations will become useless, due to old certificates on the client side. This makes it impossible to establish a VPN connection to your freshly upgraded router, furthermore, the GenieApp which connects remotely without VPN, doesnt allow the download/configuration of VPN Profiles. Thus, you are forced to connect to your router locally. However, this is silly, since if you are abroad (on a longer trip etc.) you will never be able to do that.
Therefore, it would make sense to have an option in the GenieApp, which allows you to download your VPN profiles for Android/Windows etc..
