Potential Security Risk - on local IP

I am trying to work with an older piece of equipment that has an internet interface, a local IP 192.168.1.x

When I try to connect with FireFox I get the error "Warning Potential Security Risk". When I continue the error message is "MOZILLA_PKIX Error Self Signed CERT"

Accepting the "risk" things seem to work for a while. However, after several timeouts and reconnects FF will not connect. If on the other hand I just let things run without making changes the connections stays up without an issue (until I start making adjustments).

Looking at the certificate (from ~2012) yes it is from the manufacture. There is also a "Finger print"

Is there anyway to bypass this warning/blocking to eliminate the FF/equipment interface from my troubleshooting problem?

Thanks, Lou
