BT OpenZone Certificate Expired?

[stockhausen]

I seem to have a problem with either Firefox or BTopenzone.
When I am working away from home, I sometimes connect to BT Fon.
Yesterday I got the following message:

Your connection is not secure

The Owner of www.btopenzone.com has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.​

I am then offered two options, "Learn more..." or "Advanced".

"Learn more" adds:

support.mozilla.org uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is only valid for the following names:
btopenzone.com, www.btwifi.com, reg.btwifi.com, info.btopenzone.com, cdn.btwifi.com, btwifi.com, btwifi.co.uk, www.btopenzone.com, my.btwifi.com, my.btopenzone.com, info.btwifi.com, www.btwifi.com

Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN​

"Advanced" adds:

www.btopenzone.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate expired on 05 September 2016 00:59. The current time is 07 September 19:22.

Error code: SSL_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE​

Any suggestions as to what might be causing this, Firefox or BT OpenZone?

The issue is with BT open zone as they haven't renewed their security certificate.

Did you get the error as soon as you connected or after you had been connected for a while?

As soon as I entered the URL and hit [ENTER], before entering the login details.

Incidentally, this happens with both MSIE 11 & Firefox 48.0.2.

Before you authenticated with BT WiFi?

For some reason, the browser isn't always redirected to the correct landing page.

Many thanks, that seems to work.

Why is that the case and why did it change recently? Is BT or Mozilla to blame?

I wish I knew. :/

I've had the issue for several years, on many devices, including Windows, Android & iOS.
