Is my router insecure?
- ______-_-______ 5y agoIf you haven't flashed OpenWRT or something similar… most probably yes.
- kQq9oHeAz6wLLS 5y agoBut my homebrew OpenBSD router isn't supported by OpenWRT! /s
- hedora 5y agoDid you try unplugging and plugging it back in? If that doesn't work, you should be able to find a factory reset button. Look for a hole you can stick a paper clip in, and power cycle with the button depressed. Once you do that, call your ISP and ask for the default password. /s
- wepple 5y agoYes. And OpenWRT is hardly an improvement. Luckily, every other hop you traverse across the internet is untrustworthy too, so having a bad router shouldn’t worry you. Treat your home wifi like you treat Starbucks wifi.
