Thought about how to deal with this problem many times myself. Only 
solution I can think of at this stage is to get a professionally signed 
SSL certificate for your uamip (e.g. 192.168.182.1) and run an ssl 
tunnel in front of your chilli process (e.g. matrixtunnel). This 
requires firmware changes though (if you use coova ap or any other 
embedded platform).
