And no more spooky behaviour of the STB I presume?

Reading this has got me all scared!

I would be screwed if someone deleted the data on my Synology NAS.

I am using a Netgear router for BT Fibre and have my Synology NAS, Vu+ and other devices connected.
My Vu+ is not open to the outside world (I think). I have done the following to secure my network:-

1) Synology NAS - Disabled admin & guest users
2) Netgear Router -Disabled WPS & Enabled Mac address filtering for Wifi devices

what more can I do ...... especially on the NAS side...

Thanks

As far as I know both NAS and STB (and any other device for that matter) will be safe unless you forward a port to them. This is assuming the device(s) is/are connected to a router, and not directly to the modem (internet).
The only safe ways to reach a device from the internet is via a VPN or ssh tunnel.

Why not just telnet your receiver and add or change the Password, The same thing happened to me about a year ago (no password) t£at deleted films and some photos which were on the hdd.

telnet your box and type
passwd -press enter
enter the required password -and press enter again
confirm the password -and press enter.
now its changed.

Why not use the VPN capability of your Synology to access your network remotely? Would give you simple and secure access to your Synology and VU+ if ever required. It's what I do.
