Smile And Spectranet Modems Are Being Hacked by brandmaster: 5:36pm On Apr 25, 2019
Since the beginning of the month, popular 4G networks Smile and Spectranet have encountered a major data breach which left most of their modems hacked. Smile claimed the issue has been resolved but users keep facing the same issue.

This issue started on April 20, 2019 when most smile subscribers noticed their modem name suddenly changed to jihatsu, when you sign on this, it takes you to a page asking
It’s quite sad both companies haven’t issued a press release, some of the worries are as follows: is there is a breach of data? is there network connections secured? Is there a chance that users information leaked or been infiltrated by these hackers.
Right now the permanent solution is taking the modem to their office as resetting the modem doesn’t fix the problem.

There is a vuln on their router which is being exploited. Constant check up on sites which publish new exploits would have prevented this.
