Re: hacked ps4 and network

 make and model of power line adapter would be handy to know this

 

 

powerline repeats the wifi like this eaxample 

say your router wifi is myrouter34686 

powerline wil likely be repeating this as yrouter34686 ext on your netork

because this has no password or wifi sscurity they can login here with zero problems the router now lets them connect 

 

change the router wifi and password then setup a password to the powerline this is likely unsecured

fyi if  there are telling you this then they are likely more bothered that they can see actvity as anybody actvely snooping wouldint

Re: hacked ps4 and network

What is your proof?

I have no idea if this is correct as it is from a Google AI search so it could be a load of rubbish.
 
How to Mirror TV to a Laptop (Wireless Methods):
 
Windows Built-in Method: On your Windows laptop, search for "Connect to a wireless display" or press Windows Key + K and select the TV from the list. The TV must support Mircast and be on the same network.
 

ES Share/AnyEx (Smart TVs): Install the ES Share or AnyEx application on your smart TV and download the corresponding PC version to allow the TV screen to appear on the laptop.

HDMI Capture Card (Wired Method): Use a USB HDMI capture card. Connect an HDMI cable from the TV's output (if it has one, rare) or a streaming device (like a Firestick) to the capture card plugged into your laptop's USB port. This allows the computer to display the video feed. 

In any event, you must change the BT hub's wireless password and its Admin password and make sure that your powerline adapters are also password protected.

Re: hacked ps4 and network

sorry thats Wifi Direct. They could have used Wifi Direct because with this they don't need your router or to be on the same network to connect to the TV. This is still illegal 

 

Whatever way they did it they are defenitely screen mirroring my bt tv and PS4 and maybe more devices. They've been doing this for a long time I will try my best to secure my network. 

 

BT chat advisor told me to reset all my devices to factory settings do I really have to do this?

https://www.bt.com/help/broadband/learn-about-broadband/learn-about-the-bt-hub-manager

From a web browser:

  1. Make sure you are connected to your Whole Home Wi-Fi network
  2. Enter  i192.168.1.254 n your internet browser address field
  3. Enter your Admin password then click Login (Admin password is printed on your wireless settings card located on the back of your router
  4. Select Settings then Wireless
  5. Enter your new network name and password and click on Save

Please note: when you Save your new wireless settings you will be disconnected from the network. Go to your device’s Wi-Fi settings

 

everything connected via wifi will now show  the new network connected using the same details you just changed

ethernet devices will connnect as  before

if yoo have a powerline adapter secure this with a password

 

 

change this not reset every device This a 5 minute job 

 

you need to do this or get them to send you aa neeed a router if you dont want to change SSID

Re: hacked ps4 and network

If they got onto our network will it show up on the hub manager pager or can they somehow be on the network invisible.

 I know for a fact these a holes have been screen mirroring everything on my TV and spoofing on my internet for a long long time how someone could drop so low in life is beyond me this is something I would never do even if someone paid me.

 

I have a ring door bell outside connected through a white wire which is plugged in to my socket.

And then there's another plug for the ring door bell which flashes a blue light.

Are these plugs safe to use?

Re: hacked ps4 and network

yes if powerline is likely unsecured look up   this is how there a getting acesss at least awitch this of untill you get around to change the wifi details and adding a pasword to any powerlines

while there in your network everything they do if they do anyway is done from the ip adress assinged to you from BT point of view it looks your doing it

 

stop delaying switch the router off untill you can change wifi details or get bt to send you a new router
