D-Link DIR-655 Firmware 1.21 Hijacks your Internet

chronopunk writes: Normally when you think of firmware updates for a router you would expect security updates and bug fixes. Would you ever expect the company that makes the product to try and sell you a subscription for security software using it's firmware as a salesperson? I recently ran into this myself when trying to troubleshoot my router. I noticed when trying to go to google that my router was hijacking dns and sent me to a website trying to sell my a software subscription. After upgrading your D-link DIR-655 router to the latest firmware you'll see that D-link does and calls the hijacking a "feature".
