I've been configuring new Access Points using 68.0.1 and on
initial access I would get
"Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead"
with "Advanced" button to bypass the error.

Automatic updated to 68.0.2 and now I get an error
"Security Connection Failed"
with only "Try Again" button.

Can this be fixed quickly?

TIA

I just checked and windows says that 68.0.2 was updated last week.
How was it that it was working fine yesterday, but not today?

I created a new profile and it works. It appears that Certificates have
something to do with the 'fix'. I tried deleting the old profile certificates
for that IP address (192.168.1.25) but it didn't work.

I don't really understand certificates, so I'm not sure what to do to my
old profile to get access to the access point again.

Any ideas?

Found a fix... googled SEC_ERROR_REUSED_ISSUER_AND_SERIAL and found
https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/Solution/Identify-upgrade-Firefox-Error-code-SEC-ERROR-REUSED-ISSUER-AND-SERIAL

1. Close all instances of Firefox
2. Delete C:\Users\%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\%profile.default%\cert_override.txt
3. Delete C:\Users\%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\%profile.default%\cert8.db
4. Open the web GUI to the controller and set exceptions (see below for workflow).

This fixed my problem!
