I think I'd tend to agree wondering if it is worth it.
I get errors if working on the website with the pages held on my PC. There's also the warning padlock if you visit your modem/router. However the effort involved in sorting it if it is just you on your LAN can be a pita. Youre not trying to prove to customers that youre keeping any financial transactions or customer data secure and establishing a secure encrypted connection between your webserver and their browser.
Yes, you do need a registered domain as you need to set a CNAME & set up the DNS server also iirc the max time for letsencrypt certs are 3month, so you'd need to remember to redo every 3mth. Setting up SSL may be a piece of cake for some, but I was more than happy to let my webhosts sort it all for the main site.

How much bigger is the 2.5G ONT to the 1G? Identical size, fitted on the same backplate, still working fine. |

I believe they're exactly the same size.

I mean sure if you have malware on the network it can snoop your login password without SSL. But then if you have malware on your network it could also be a keylogger on the PC or just brute-force the login. So SSL seems kinda redundant at that point.

I continue to use http to avoid this hassle, also as I have custom cgi scripts my server probes on pfSense to monitor router activity. thanks, thats helpful, and give me pause for thought |
