Secure connection to Readynas Duo v1

It has been a while since I did a local access to my Duo ( https://192.168.1.100/admin/ )

I am getting certificate errors now in Chrome (ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH); Firefox v63.0.1 (SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP)

 

The best I can do is to access the shares forlder insecurely.( http://192.168.1.100/shares/ ) Which is hardly enough to administer the NAS.

 

I think that the latest versions of the browsers are all implementing secure connections without any way to bypass it.

How do I fix this?

    Use http I guess (http://192.168.1.100/admin).  There might be some other security settings changes that might work (with firefox anyway).

     

    You shouldn't be allowing over-the-internet access to your NAS anyway, since it's been EOL for a long time, and isn't getting security updates.

      Latest versions of browsers are enforcing TLS even if I type http:\\ ...

      They are not finding a way for secure access to the device.

       

      I an not accessing the device over WAN.  This is over my internal LAN (my side of the router.

      The 192.186.x.x are locally available addresses anyway...

        They won't if you disable https on the Duo (which is an option under services).  Though the trick now is to get it to connect once, so you can do that.

         

        You could try using IE perhaps in compatibility mode, or temporarily installing an older version of FireFox or Chrome.

         

        FWIW, I am not seeing this issue on my own Duo and NV+, and both have https enabled.  FireFox and Chrome say they are up to date, though Chrome is version 70.0.3538.102, not version 71.
