1. Belkin Wireless Router Updates

Is your router doing more than just connecting you to the Web? If you have the Belkin N600 DB Wireless Dual Band N+ router, you might be vulnerable to a cyber attack, according to the CERT Coordination Center at Carnegie Mellon University, which identified several potential issues that hackers could.

Hiya guys n gals, i set up my network a while back i figured i was pretty secure but i was running on a unsecured network. Well it finally happened someone hacked me if you can call it that. Basically my network was called 'omarius' and didn't have a password. Now when i got back to my house i tried.

Well it finally happened someone hacked me if you can call it that. Basically my network was called 'omarius' and didn't have a password. Now when i got back to my house i tried to connect and my netowrk name was changed to 'omarius is hacked with security:)' and there's password set to it. So basically i phoned up belkin and i think they didn't get what i said but yeh they told me to type this into my browser 192.168.2.1 and when i type that in it says address is not valid. While i'm on the phone i'm thinking well i'm not connected to the internet so how they hell can it load the page!! So yeh basically anyone got any ideas?? My son is just starting his GCSE coursework now, so any responces would by greatly appreciated!

Thanks alot, All the best. Update: more details:( basically i have reset my router like you all told me to do but its getting onto the ip address because when i try to find it through the whole ipconfig /all thing there isn't a number next to the default gateway. Now the reason i'm on the net is because i have connected my modem directly to.

More details:( basically i have reset my router like you all told me to do but its getting onto the ip address because when i try to find it through the whole ipconfig /all thing there isn't a number next to the default gateway. Now the reason i'm on the net is because i have connected my modem directly to my laptop but to access this special number i have to be connected to the internet through my router. I'm guessing i have to use a wire to do this but when i connect it to my router then to my pc i can't connect to the internet to access the ip address.

So basically i'm stuck as to how to get onto this special site for my router. Or am i wrong and i don't have to be connected tp the net to do this? Sorry for rambling please help! Best Answer: You have one great advantage over the hacker: You have physical access to the router. Here's what to do: 1.First some prep, because once you start this, you don't want to give the hacker a chance to grab the router back. Find out the router's local IP address (see below for details). 2.Have a computer connected to the router by a LAN port.

3.Have your browser up and the router's IP address in its address window. 4.Find out how to reset the router. Usually, there's a little button or hole on the router that you stick a paperclip wire into and hold it there for about thirty seconds.

This should set the router back to its factory defaults. (If this doesn't work, try it again while powering on the router.) Okay, here we go: 1.Reset the router. 2.Log into the router's admin pages by entering its default local IP address into your browser's address window. 3.Find the router admin page that permits or denies wireless administration (not wireless web access). DISABLE WIRELESS ADMINISTRATION IF IT'S ENABLED AND IMMEDIATELY SAVE THE CHANGE. Unless they're really on top of things, that should keep them from grabbing the thing away from you again. If it doesn't, repeat the steps (now that you know where the appropriate page is) some other time of day, to catch them off guard.

Now for some steps to keep them from using the connection at all. 1.Find where the SSID (network name) broadcast is enabled.

Disable that. 2.Find the router's SSID. Change it from the default. You'll have to define it on all your wireless machines, but the hacker won't know it. 3.Enable WEP or WPA encryption. 4.See if the router has a way of saving its configuration to your hard disk. If so, do it.

It's a great way to get back up in a single step. Now for finding the router's IP address. This should work, but because the router's been hijacked, it may not.

If it doesn't, try 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.0, 192.168.1.2. Even better, research it from the router's documentation or the manufacturer's website from either a cabled-in machine, which doesn’t use the WEP key, or a machine on another network).

1.Click on the Start button. 2.Click Run. 3.In the text box, type in cmd and press Enter. 4.A black 'DOS box' window will pop up. Type into it ipconfig /all and press Enter.

5.A bunch of seeming gibberish will fill the screen. On the line next to 'Default Gateway' your router's IP address should appear. Tell us some more. Upload in Progress.
