Re: Web Admin access - HTTPS; what about SSL?

It's a self-signed certificate, meaning that you'll have to tell your browser to accept it, either temporarily or permanently. In either case, the encryption still works, and that's the main point of making an https (TLS/SSL) connection to the router. Since the router's userid and password are supplied over an encrypted connection, it makes you much more secure against eavesdroppers. I also change my web server to use a non-standard tcp port, so that the people / worms which are always checking out ports 80 and 443 will be left in the dark.
