Freeradius and Astaro: Questions

Hi All

I've recently started using Freeradius to authenticate wireless clients and as part of the proxy (authenticating users for HTTP sessions etc) using Basic user Authentication

I have the following questions:

1)When I enter the credentials to my browser I get a warning message indicating that the credentials will be sent over unsecure channel (attached pic).My understanding is that during the Radius handshake there is no plaintext/unecrypted information sent (a secret is being used in the form of MD5 algorithm)

2)Users need to re enter their credentials every time they close their browsers. Is there a way to avoid this? (i.e credentials stored on their browser cache?)

Thanks
