⚠ Vulnerable to Misfortune Cookie: Upgrade Firmware ⚠

In December 2014 it was revealed that some versions of this TP-Link model are subject to hacking if they are running outdated firmware and if the remote access (ACL) is set to allow remote access. We documented this vulnerability on the Misfortune Cookie Vulnerability page.

NCF Recommendation for this modem:

  • Upgrade the Firmware to the lastest version if available.
  • Also, Deactivate ACL from Access ManagementACL.
  • If there is no firmware update for your version, replace the modem.
