Hello All ,

Hope someone can help me on this. I am trying to access directly a device from Browser with an IP address. https://192.168.1.1 But i get the error : "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead"

Usually get the option of adnaced to proceed further. The Version is 130.0 (64-bit) and even set the about:config, security.dialog_enable_delay to minimum.

I have added the self signned certificate of the deivice to Firefox , but that is not helping, since i am accessing it with IP address and not FQDN. I cannot add it as exception in the exception list , since that setting also ask for DNS name.

Ip address access exception is no more available in this version , how can i proceed further and not downagrade to lower verion to support access via IP .


Regards, Zanoob

Sadly Firefox's paranoia is getting to the stage where it's adversly effcting its utility.

Showing a warning is all fine and dandy but given that it's my computer, my data and, ulimately my identity and my money that may be imperilled, it should be MY choice if I accept or over-rule that warning.
