Can hackers get into the admin login from outside the lan? My password is currently 123!! Should it be changed?

some providers let you share your wifi to randoms for a fee also. like you pay a lesser bill to them for providing this service, not sure if you'd have to opt out of it or not?

It's not that likely unless your router is ancient.

If you have to stick with 123 type passwords so them as something like 1two3.

Only an issue if a LAN device gets compromised or WAN configuration port is open which is not a normal default

Ta for the advice everyone.. Changed it to a harder one to guess.. Why they set a password to 123 is beyond me. Checked the literature and a factory reset will bring 123 password back.. 'Geeez'

Whist your at it email me your paypal account name and password saves me that hassle of hacking it and installing a keylogger.

You NOW might just want to change ALL your passwords on All your accounts, as you think you've secured you router.
