That it doesn't accept your password? (Tomato router)
I'm racking my brain, because I know I accessed my router settings a week or two ago, and I have a vague recollection I might have changed the password, but I also remember having to access the router, because my connections to Newegg were timing out. I had trouble logging into the router then, too, but after I finally got in, I found out why - LoadAve was like 5.0/5.0/5.0. Which is pretty weird... unless, the router CPU was running a crypt() function repeatedly, because someone had a remote login to my router, and was trying to bruteforce the password.
I noticed that SSHd and TelnetD were set to "Enabled", but I thought that by default, they didn't allow access from the WAN?
I think I disabled them, and maybe I changed the password. Maybe I'm OK. But I still wonder if I was hacked. Though, my Access Point password hadn't been changed.
