Good evening fellow miners! Just wanted to let you know that Ive had another S9 hacked today and the controller is ruined and I ran out of the replacement controllers Cry

Firewall is set to medium, if I set it to higher level then the miners dont connect. Not sure what else I can do to stop this guy from stealing my coins and braking my hardware.

If anyone is interested here is the address that this bastard puts instead of my pool settings and his wallet address.

The controllers can not be hard reset, the address can not be changed. BEWARE AND KEEP YOU NETWORK SAFE¡

Good night and mine on! The block is coming soon!

Its more likely that the attack is coming from one of the computers on your internal network rather than from outside.

Unless you have forwarded ports to access your miners from outside your network, or worse, your miners have public IP addresses, the most likely cause of the hack is a compromised windows computer on your network.

I was thinking about that bro and it probably was the case because I have the whole family connected to the same network and everyone is browsing different sites and places which are probably arent safe, and I cant control all of them. I have my modem setup pretty safe and the WiFi isnt even visible and it doesnt have any ports open as far as I know and isnt controlled from the outside but I did have a not very secured 5G Netgear router hooked up to it which I disconnected and hopefully now Ill be safe. So far no more machines have been hacked.

And gladly it is just my home network where I just got several miners working and not my actual farm!!!

And no, nobody uses windows in my house, its all phones and tablets.

Thanks.

Mine on! I can smell that block already!!! Wink
