Just in the case you have not heard the news of the past week,

There is a warning issued by the FBI about a potential malware threat to 
routers.

While I did try to dig deeper on this over the weekend, I could not 
obtain the grimy details.

But it looks like a sleeper so you might want to do due diligence and 
reset your router to clear the ram.

When I say sleeper, I mean it has yet to perform new duties so it might 
not affect anything now.

I'm clearing all of mine once a day till I find out more. Just a FYI.
