Update on Router Security issue

 

Security for your D-Link router
Various media reports have recently been published relating to vulnerabilities in network routers, including D-Link devices. Security and performance is of the utmost importance to D-Link across all product lines. This is not just through the development process but also through regular firmware updates to comply with the current safety and quality standards.

 

We are proactively working with the sources of these reports as well as continuing to review across the complete product line to ensure that the vulnerabilities discovered are addressed. 

 

We will continue to update this page to include the relevant product firmware updates addressing these concerns.
In the meantime, you can exercise the below cautions to avoid unwanted intrusion into your D-Link router.

 

Unsolicited emails

• If you receive unsolicited e-mails that relates to security vulnerabilities and prompt you to action, please ignore it. When you click on links in such e-mails, it could allow unauthorised persons to access your router. Neither D-Link nor its partners and resellers will send you unsolicited messages where you are asked to click or install something.
• Make sure that your wireless network is secure.
• Disable remote access to your router if it is not required (this is disabled by default).
