I had been having bad FTTB connection for months, having to unplug the old Huweii modem numerous times to get connected again and again, so TPG gave me the new VX 420 and I also had serious issues trying to set up the modem, so in the end I called IT support who had to go in the back end to reconfigure a few settings first, however since then, I am still having issues.   My FTTB internet is dead slow and although I have the wifi connected to 3 computers of varying ages, I can only get the 5g connected to the 2009 imac and the 2015 Macbook pro.   AND I cannot get it connected to the new macmini, no matter what I try and so only have the 2.4g running on that and this is my main work computer.......AND in the past week that I have had the new modem, I have also had to turn it off and on again already 4 times to get any wifi at all!   This is ridiculous and I am at my wits end, so can someone please help me because TPG tech support can't anymore (they don't have a clue) and Tp-link refuse to help as they say it's my ISP's job to help....Sick to death of going around in circles.... ...

I WANT it CLOSED.   ...."The routers were attacked on TCP port 7547, which is used by the TR-069 protocol (also known as CWMP or CPE WAN Management Protocol)"   ..."For example, it is common knowledge that open TCP/IP ports are dangerous. When an ISP wants to access their customer devices on an open port, they should take steps to insure that only they can do so. Instead, we saw ISPs mis-configuring both the routers and their internal networks such that any bad guy, anywhere in the world, can get into the routers on port 7547."
