How is this possible and what should I do to stop it? Samsung Flip 4 phone, Samsung Smart TV. Looks like you have both hacked into mine, now i'll have to sign out, and make a new password, and change my router pass name/number. ( TOT have come before to help me do that using my laptop ) I think you should get Netflix for him also.

Unify Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Something similar happened to me when I was staying at a resort with a bunch of the same TV models installed in nearby bungalows. I was just minding my own business when suddenly my TV turned on and started showing porn. The fella next door had managed to pair his remote with my TV and the bungalows were close enough together that his remote worked my TV, via Bluetooth. No hacking was involved. I never said anything to him when I saw him, but let's just say his tastes were interesting. I unplugged my TV after that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Daley Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I guess you could just switch off the router no and then so he gets bored of it. It's not worth confronting him. You will end up with a bad neaubour. It doesn't really affect the wifi speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 The Russians are some of the best hackers in the world. Change your password immediately. That would be a good place to start. And mention it to the fool. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which didnt make any sense, as they would need his gmail / youtube sign in credentials. Turns out he omitted to say he used to live next door, and left himself logged in to the tv box..... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveAustin Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Forget all that, I would just get round there and beat the S out of him, esp being Russian (they all reckon they're hard until you get right up in their face).

You can delete any device listed and that device would need to sign in again. Better supervision should be done at network level and there is an app for android phones, not sure about other devices. It is called Net Analyser and will list all devices connected to the network and give the IP address and also some query options. If you identify any unwanted devices you should be able to log in to the router and block the IP address. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
