streaming vu+ solo2 when im not at home

[judge]

Not really if authentication is setup.

Yes, really.

I think I have done it with your help. on my mobile via 4g I was just entering the vu+ solo2 IP address

Big mistake. I now have full access to your box.

 

[arnie2014]

Yes, really.

Big mistake. I now have full access to your box.

you don't know iv disabled my ports

and how could you access my box, when you don't even know the IP address etc

is their any way to secure my box

 

[arnie2014]

well if its so unsecure people doing this im sure plenty of people watch their boxes in work or whatever, how would somebody secure their box please.

Use a VPN.
I've cut out most of your IP address just to show you...

 

[arnie2014]

ok thank you,
please tell me you haven't done anything to my box, how the bloody hell does somebody know how to access my box,

I mean how would you know my WAN ip and etc, shit wow, that's scary that is I actually never realised how easy it could of been for somebody to look at my box

Authentication is not switched on after a Software upgrade.

Well Done.

Ofcourse I haven't. Just logged on to show you how easy it would be for anyone to find it & use it as they wish.

Well Done.

Web authentication isn't the best method to secure any box.

 

[arnie2014]

could you please help me to secure my box then please. I know you said setup a VPN right? would this make my box secure so only I could access it when im out and about?

 

[grahammcm1888]

Kinda defeats the purpose to be honest. My authentication is back on now. If people can get around that then thats pretty poor.

you don't know iv disabled my ports

Box is still open by the way, only a matter of time before a script kiddie finds it.

eh? I don't get it, how can it still be open when iv delete the open ports and stopped forwarding on my router arghhh?

Yes, but you'll have to do some reading up on VPNs.
Best to terminate your VPN on your modem/router, so you'll have to do some reading up on that too.
Most Android & IOS devices can start a VPN session, so more reading up to be done there.

Way out of the scope on a satellite forum, so try looking at some network expert sites.

To get back to your question (although this is probably the last thing you are worried about) have you downloaded the VU player app. You will not be able to play via a webpage on your phone. Well I cant on my iphone , not sure about android,etc.

Have you rebooted your router?
I've just turned on your box to prove the point.
Note time of screenshot.
Removed most of IP again so others don't find it as fast.

 

[grahammcm1888]

Whos ip address is this mine does not have 158 in it?

ok just rebooted my router now, please can you now tell me if my box is secure again, or should I say my ports are shut thank you

 

[arnie2014]

its mine, its obviously my default one, Im guessing I should change it to make my network more secure?

@arnie2014 the OP that you seem to be helping set-up an unsecured box.
