Probably a browser thing. You don't need a certificate to get at the GUI. It is local.
Browser makers are getting ever more "helpful" as they try to protect us from ourselves.
Try a different browser.
- That‘s on each browser because the certificate is invalid. From security prospektive a valid certificate (for a secure connection with https) is needed.
The other point is, that I have to renew the certificate on the router because my browser setting allows only secure connection - for each browser.
Therefor, the question is not, how to connect to the routers admin GUI insecurely, but how can the certificate on the router be renewed?
Thanks for the help.
