Now click my router link and go t a forced https page. Click on "Switch to https" link and get the Warning unsafe page.


 

I have had problems for ages trying to get a secure local connection to my Synology router...  This thread peaked my interest again and I re-tried setting up a self-signed certificate and new link on my desktop... no luck - kept getting the warning and insecure website message.

Then I tried googly what's wrong with my web page https connection - it said I shouldn't try connecting to a local IP address but instead use a domain name set up in the hosts file.  So I edited my hosts file - added "192.168.1.1  MyRouter" and change my desktop link to point to https://MyRouter/  ... Low and behold it sprang into life and worked....   Not sure if it's a Chrome specific issue, but it appears to be working on my local network now with a secure encrypted connection to my router.

Not really sure it's directly related but just in case it helps anyone.

I generally don't use my Hub2 router, just kept in a cupboard for diagnostic purposes if needed.  So have not tried it on a hub2 yet.
