Yep one and the same so that should not be an issue.

Ok quick thoughts;
1 - which browser are you using? (I only really tested it in firefox but heared from other both chrome and edge should be fine aswell)
2 - did you get the screen to re-enter your pass for the nintendo account?
3 - I one time had a weird thing with the cert, the file you download the file size is just the 3kb right? (I had to redownload it once)
4 - I have only tried it in Dutch and English ... not sure if other languages should work just like that (you can change the language in your nintendo account if you want to try that)

Hmmm seeing as 2 is a no.
Try a Incognito window;
1 - Login to your Nintendo ID using nintendo.com or nintendo.it
2 - Then navigate to https://bugyo.hac.lp1.eshop.nintendo.net/ashigaru/
3 - In Firefox it shows me if I want to use the cert then, which I agree to
4 - It should ask you to re-enter the password for the Nintendo account
5 - You should be in.

If not ... really no idea. It should work verified it just a minute ago.

It's not asking me for the certificate
UPDATE : Great Now it's Working!

Well no ;) if that was the way to get Switch games on your PC that would have been a damn right joke.
You can only browse the shop. Downloads and such are really out of the scope.

The type of access give me some things as I can see more actual release info then sometimes is available on the normal nintendo website.
And for me that matters :)

At least until we have a way to dump our own certs, after that it could be possible, but still not directly over the browser, and only to use them on our switch ^^

Sure sure as more gets known even tiny entry points like this can become something different ;)
Wished I could get access to the news channel feed though. But as of yet ... no real progress.
