Hi all, I'm with merlin 386.14 and since a couple of weeks I cannot access anymore SSH.
If I reboot, I have access for few seconds but after that is stops the connection.

I can access my Web-if as usual and everything seems working as expected a part the fact that some script like the the reboot e-mail notification are not anymore doing their job (this is why I discovered the issue).

I suspescted a hack and I tried to change the Admin password but the router di not recognise anymore the original password even if the same could be used to access SSH (for very short time) and to access Web-if.

I made a full dip restore of factory settings and after that restored a backup from July which was quite stable.
Everything has been good for 1 week but now again the same issue even if now I can change the password in the Admin page.

I checked the post mount in the Jffs but I do not see anything strange:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
swapon /tmp/mnt/Entware/myswap.swp # Added by amtm
. /jffs/addons/amtm/mount-entware.mod # Added by amtm
# cru a sa1 "*/10 * * * * /opt/lib/sysstat/sa1 600 1 -S DISK"
# cru a sa2 "59 23 * * * /opt/lib/sysstat/sa2 -A"
/jffs/scripts/spdmerlin startup "$@" & # spdMerlin

What can be the issue ?

I'm on the way to reset again the device but I suspect that someone is hacking the my router even if I do not see any evident issue within the net a part the missing SSH.

I have a DDNS and may be someone can track my IP even if it chages quite frequently frommy ISP.

Thanks in advance to whom will provide a feedback
