Here's Belkin Wireless Router Question

[liberalpress]

Everyonce in a while I can't login in to my router.

I get an error saying it's being administered by 140.6.20.0

That's a DOD IP

Anybody know how I can stop this?

1. Um...

If the DOD has taken over your router, I deny even being here on the same board as you. Good luck with that. We never spoke.

2. Wait!.....did you log in from a wireless connection?

Who are you? I don't know you!

3. Seriously...

I called Belkin support and they claim they'll have a "supervisor" call me within 48 hours

4. well

1. Disable remote access to the Router.
2. DoD Computers being used by worms or hackers is not unheard of; interesting and remarkable but probably not important.

Edit: and of course the IP can be faked; do you have WEP activated?

5. Actually I remember..

...hearing or reading something about it a while ago. Hackers were trying to acquire acces to wireless nets and spoofing DOD addresses.

7. There should be a reset button on the outside of the...

router. Reset it and then reconfig it.
