It is very possible that the device or the ISP is doing a man-in-the-middle proxy, decrypting and then resigning https traffic. Don't do it.
You should be able to use the browser to investigate the https certificate you are getting - what domains it is valid for, and who the issuer is.

Thanks. Will check it later once I get home. Im pretty sure it was because of that "pocket wifi device" since when I transferred the SIM used in that device to my smartphone Im not getting any certificate error.
I am also using google chrome browser but not getting any error like this,did you checked if you get SSL error for bitcointalk only or other sites as well.
Thanks. Only for bitcointalk site and that error occurred only when Im using that "pocket wifi device". Are you using the same device also? If not then you won't have an error like mine.
Really want to get rid that certificate error since I like the speed rate of that pocket wifi device when use as broadband conncetion.
