It would be good if they could do this - we're now running SysLogs which may help if the attack happens again.

As Admin says, I use a 2925, and have no issues at all in that manner.silverstreak_2006 wrote:

Perhaps DrayTek could add configuration change to Notification Object?BookIT wrote:

Hi
Yes, I've seen 7 routers affected with this issue (3220, 2925 and 5 x 2860). Draytek support were informed a few days ago but have yet to admit any issue. Config files etc have all been submitted. All differing firmwares too. It seems to be affecting the latest hardware so far - we manage around 150 devices of differing age and older models not being attacked.
The very first router that was attacked, password was reset, but the this was re-attacked two days later, so it's not down to weak passwords. Syslog show no admin login what so ever, then the configuration of DHCP/DNS changed (no user being logged in)!
The only way to stop this happening for now is to either disable remote management or set ACL's for remote management.
Hope that helps

Andy, can you confirm that some routers were running the latest firmware when they were hacked?

It was a mix bag, however, none of the 7 were on the latest/greatest. A couple were on close to latest.

We had this happen this morning to one of our 2860 that was on an older firmware and " Allow management from the Internet" was disabled.
This is very concerning.
