Ok Thank you!!- There is a port number that is added to the end of the unifi.cdsolutions.net:XXXX ---- Is there anything I should be doing with that as far as SSL or with my DNS settings?? Im really the only one that uses the sites but just concerning all the browsers are showing not secure… I have a ubnt cloud also and ubiquiti integrated lets encrypt into the program so setup is VERY simple and shows secure.

Does your webserver have a 301 non-ssl -> ssl redirect in it?

For my configuration using NGINX that would look something like this…

server {
  listen 80;

  server_name domain.name;

  ... 

  location / {
    return 301 https://www.domain.name$request_url;
  }

  ...
}

That was it… I needed to open site with out the port at the end and get the default page. Now we are showing secure. Thanks!
