Netgear Router Exploit - 10/8/2015
So, apparently my router has been hit in this recent exploit. I am unable to log into my gateway using my current password that worked the last time I logged in. This is done via Lastpass so I know i...
Did the reset cause I was all out of options. Worked as expected. Thanks for the idea.
Do not enable remote logins at all.. Also go through the router and add passwords in any place that accepts them..
If an option is greyed out but there is a empty password box, turn the option on, add the password, then turn the option back off!...
So these new forums, are they in MM/DD/YYYY format, or DD/MM/YYYY ? ....
An update for JNR1010v2 / WNR614 / WNR618 / JWNR2000v5 / WNR2020 / JWNR2010v5 / WNR1000v4 / WNR2020v2 is posted here

http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29959Since my Epic Fail thread has been quashed by the powers that be I will ask you again:

Am I to expect cricket chirps on difficult questions you find awkward? Am I beneath even contempt?
I knew the NetUSB flaw may have been limited to firmware with that functionality, being charitable Maybe due to modularity. But that was still a prominent flaw, no? What is it about the listed routers on this current flaw that makes them unique and excludes Netgear products not explicitly listed. I hear nothing but crickets chirping and that is not good. Maybe you guys can ban replies on this thread and make it go away too. That would be most convenient for you.
