It does bother me and I'm sure it will bother my many Customers. I don't see it mentioned anywhere in the documentation that the device has a "back door"  :(

Thanks Ron.

Mine is now also having a little back door chat with 24.6.168.77 - whoever that may be?

Let's just say I won't be doing any telephone banking with an Obihai device  ;)

If the outgoing packets were in ASCII format and human readable, then I may not be as concerned, but as they are encrypted and Obihai haven't bothered to advise users in the documentation, it worries me.
