AFAIK, the R7000 doesn't have an ssh server. To be safe, you should reinstall firmware to wipe out anything that may have been installed by a hacker. You should install the latest firmware in order to pick up the fix for the big security vulnerability that was publicized last week. Download the firmware here.

Hi Clithes,
I had tried factory rest but ssh server on my r7000 still be enabled. Does ssh server default setting enabled? Or someone hacked my r7000 and enabled ssh (dropbear ssh server)
