Cfwd All Dest populates on its own

After awhile I can not receive calls. I check cfwd all dest and find 011972542935554 in the field. I delete it and everything works fine but it returns on its own later. model SPA122

To me, it seems like you are being hacked if the number is international. I might be wrong though.

Please rate useful posts.

This is definitely a hack. Get your ATA out of the DMZ for a start. Based on recommendations from my modem mfgr to help with QoS settings, I had enabled the DMZ and forwarded some ports. About 1 week later I started getting calls from 6197137209 in La Mesa, CA at all hours of the day and night. Always hang ups. Simultaneously, my DID was forwarded to: 972542935554 in Israel, 972544738856 in Israel, and 381608761044 in Serbia. I found those numbers in my CFWD ALL DEST. And boy, were those folks annoyed. La Mesa was calling almost every 10 seconds and it was forwarding to their numbers. I called my own number to see where it was going, so I got to (briefly) talk to the folks in Israel. Not too happy considering they were 9 hours ahead. As soon as I disabled the DMZ and port forwarding it seemed to stop. I added strong passwords to my ATA setup just for good measure. Good luck!
