# IMPORTANT NOTE:
#
# As of asuswrt-merlin 380.67 Beta, you
# can now configure SSL certificates from
# the Webui, making these instructions
# unnecessary.

# First, enable SSH in the Administration->System tab.
# Then log in to the device.

# Verify that https_crt_save is off
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# nvram get https_crt_save
0

# Enable https_crt_save and verify that it was set correctly
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# nvram set https_crt_save=1
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# nvram get https_crt_save
1

# Write your custom key and certificate to the ephemeral file system.
# Note that these files will not be preserved on restart.
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# cat >/etc/key.pem
# paste in key
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# cat >/etc/cert.pem
# paste in cert

# Verify https_crt_file is empty
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# nvram get https_crt_file
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root#

# Restart httpd. When httpd starts up with https_crt_save enabled, it does the
# following: If /etc/cert.pem and /etc/key.pem exist, it tars them together and
# saves them in https_crt_file.  If they do not exist (this would be the case
# on reboot) and https_crt_file exists, httpd will extract the contents of
# https_crt_file. You can see how this works in the start_ssl function here:
# https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/blob/master/release/src/router/httpd/httpd.c
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# service restart_httpd

# Ensure https_crt_file is now full
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# nvram get https_crt_file
# ...snip...

# Reboot AP to make sure cert is put back on boot
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# reboot

after last command, the md5 was ef7ba5b1ec34074a56c1349653860d82 (as initial). I'm using: 3.0.0.4.388_24328-g1e6e634 any idea?

Same here. I am happy for everyone who managed to upload and activate their own certificate, but lost hope for myself.
