I’m trying to screen scrape a linksys device that I have, but because  
it doesn’t have a valid certificate, I’m getting errors.

I’m using Mechanzie, but would willing try something else…can  
someone point me in the right direction to make some thing like that  
work?

I’m writing a client app similar to ddclient. Thanks.
