Hi all,
I'm hoping I might be able to get advice on this please.
I have an Asus RT-AC66U I bought 2nd hand in January and twice now I have discovered the DNS has een manually added after I set it as automatic.
The router logs indicate something happening at around 5am when I would have been fast asleep.
I've looked into various DNS changer type hacks and run scans for malware etc. No PCs would be on at that time, possibly mobile phones if anything.
I have the latest stock Asus firmware installed, a long complex password on the router as well as default user id changed. Web access is allowed and I use the Asus android app. I can't figure out where this is happening or if this is a new security exploit even?
The new fake dns is different both times but still same provider in the Netherlands.
I can supply router logs or the IP if interested.
I tried Asus support but they were immensely useless and sent a standard unhelpful reply. I'm thinking about going to Merlin instead now does that work with the android app all or is there an alternative?
