May 15, 20251 yr Assistance please turnt my server off today due to electrical work in my house and upon turning back on I'm getting the error Possible Hack Attempt the syslog shows the IP for the router but shown differnet invalid usrs login attempts, any idea what this can be ? Provider is Vodafone and it does have secure net so not sure if it's this causing it As far as I'm aware Plex is only thing that can assess outside my network via UPnp, I have no interest in access my server outside the network other than plex vault101-diagnostics-20250515-2307.zipvault101-syslog-20250515-2206.zip
May 15, 20251 yr Author Adding update have rebooted and fix common problems no longer has alert and logs no longer being spammed but still looking for advise on this to see what caused it and how to provent it thanks in advance for the help
May 16, 20251 yr Since you say the address appears to be the router it is possible that it is some sort of security feature built into the router?

July 1, 20251 yr Could this be the (weirdly common) IPV6 devices being public and completely open without you knowing issue that many routers have by default?Actually finding an open IPV6 service is quite hard as there are an incredible number of them, but there are so many devices in people homes just running completely open to WAN, no NAT no Firewall and that's just how it is with IPV6 on so many routers, and the more ISPs enable IPV6 by default, the more this will become an issue.
