If your FRITZ!Box 7360 router is not working as it should, dropping connections or not being responsive, you should first do a reset of the router to see if the problems persist. Other scenarios where you might want to reset your router is if you've forgotten the password or misconfigured it and can't get access anymore. This is often done using the reset button on the back of your router. You may have to use a paperclip to push a recessed button on the back of the router. Unplug the router, push and hold the reset button while you plug the power cord back in. Continue holding the reset button for up to 30 seconds and let the router boot as normal.

Some of these holes were simple bugs; even more alarmingly, others weren’t bugs, but deliberately-programmed security flaws.
For example, we’ve had: • A remote code execution hole in Cisco devices allowing a cunningly crafted web request to. • A Linksys bug allowing an external website to, and to enable login access over the internet. • “Joel’s Backdoor” in D-Link routers, where a simple change in the User-Agent string in your browser would.
• Sercomm’s undocumented ScMM backdoor interface that not just the login screen but the admin web pages too. • Sercomm’s patch for the ScMM backdoor, implemented by hiding the backdoor.
