Let’s Encrypt issue on 384.19

[Iwakan]

Hi.

My Ac68u has been working with 384.19 without issues and very stable. Today, after a reboot, the browser showed me a certificate error (not possible because I’m using lets encrypt that was renewed two weeks ago) because the router UI now is using the default certificate.

Everithing is configured fine and the .le folder in /jffs is present with all files and certificates as usual. The only thing is that in WAN -> DDNS the status of the certificate is “Authorizing”. Seems a bug.

Beta - Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta is now available

Introduction! To be able to generate certificates by the RT-AC86U itself, however for some reason it does not install automatically "or with an installation error" after validation! Guys I decided to Let's Encrypt as follows: 1st Factory reset and added a ddns from asus.comm.com I released...

Thank you Rafael.
So it’s confirmed it’s a bug and I’m not the only one. The problem with your workaround is that we lose the auto renewing capability.

Thanks for the workaround Rafael, I noticed the same problem today and after some googling It seems like this might be the problem.

This is Asus' response too.

Beta - ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

I don't believe an Asus router 'probes'. OE My OpenWRT shows just fine, so ASUS is doing something

The internet won't break on older Android devices in 2021, thanks to certificate authority's workaround

@RMerlin LE code is open Or closed source? Do you think the fix could be implemented in the next release? Seems that Asus is aware of the bug and working in a quick fix.

Thank you.

@Iwakan I'm sure RMerlin knew before we did. See the posts above yours. Everyone here knows too.

Thank you.

The fix will be included in the next code drop I get from Asus.
