Re: [App_rpt-users] Got a strange error in my AT&T gateway
Steve Gibson, the guy that gave us SpinRite back in the DOS days, has a much better port scanner. I wanna say his site is Gibson research Inc, or, GRC dot com, but research would help. On Jul 29, 2017 7:29 PM, David Shaw <shawpbx@gmail.com> wrote:
I saw your post from the att forum dated back in Sept 2016. So your router detected a php hijacking and blocked the packet. That's ok. But.. I would guess your getting attacked all around and over loading your router. If you have a consumer-grade router. I would call att and see if they have anyway of looking to see if your being attacked. Getting a new IP address should help. Login to your router check to see what your WAN/Public IP address.
Try powering off your Router and ASL Node for 3-5 minutes.
Some hackers testing your IP address and router.
The power off is to hopefully get a new IP address.
Google online port scanner. Find one a scan your router to see if any of your ports our open. It should show no port. Filtered ports are bad as well.

Hi all. I've been seeing a daily reboot of my AT&T gateway, has done it three times now. Looked at the logs in the AT&T box and I see several:
host=stats.allstarlink.org url=/uhandler.php hijacked
Anybody know what this might mean?
