I don't envy Netgear. They sell home routers to people who hardly know the difference between HTTP and HTTPS. In this regard, I respect them for NOT making those people submit sensitive information by ignoring browser security warnings and/or accepting self signed certificates. I.e, not teaching bad habits.

On the other hand, making private keys publicly available is obviously far from ideal.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Again, I don't envy Netgear...
