Chrome and Firefox block access to RV042G Web Configuration Utility

[mwcorg6326]

When trying to access the RV042G web configuration utility via Chrome or Firefox browsers, both deny access because of a weak ephemeral key error, reported as  ssl_error_weak_server_ephemeral_dh_key.  I am on the latest version of the firmware - v4.2.3.06.  Is there some setting in the router unknown to me to fix this issue?  Or is there a workaround other than loading an old version of the browser software?  Or is some fix in the works that will come out in a future firmware release?

I'm having the same issue (RV082). It works with Internet Exporer (v11) even though I get a certificate warning I have to approve first.

In Firefox you need to go to about:config

In there search for these two settings:

security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_128_sha

security.ssl3.dhe_rsa_aes_256_sha

You need to change the values to false. A recent firefox and chrome update has made these by default true.

For Chrome:

Currently you need to run Chrome with the current options:--cipher-suite-blacklist= 0x0088,0x0087,0x0039,0x0038,0x0044,0x0045,0x0066,0x0032,0x0033,0x0016,0x0013

Just run Chrome.exe followed by the previous options.
