Hey all, longtime lurker but new registrant for this question. Love the merlin firmware and I've used it on my old RT-N66u for years. I recently picked up an RT-AX86U, and have been reconfiguring it using the latest stable merlin firmware, 386.5_2. However, I've run into a snag. I prefer to have the router sign-in page use HTTPS, but when I set it up in System settings and download the certificate package (following the stock Asus instructions), all it generates in the cer.tar file is a cert.pem and key.pem file, no actual certificate. I could have sworn I did this on my older router without an issue.
Is this a known issue with the merlin firmware, or am I doing something wrong? I can't add either PEM file to Firefox and am stuck with a "this connection is not secure" message unless I add an exception. Do I need to add an exception or go through the added steps to set up LetsEncrypt, or am I doing something wrong here?
Help is very much appreciated Thanks. - Ryan
