How to disable SSH access to the router from the WAN interface?

(1/2) > >>

I just discovered that my D-Link DSL-2750U router is by default accessible on the WAN IP via ssh. How do I disable this?

This a serious security issue as the ssh login has the same default credentials as printed on the back of the router. I already saw 100's of login attempts on the system log in about 10 hours since the router is running.

--- Code: ---Fri Jan 11 14:16:53 2019 31 other username=admin password=admin fail
Fri Jan 11 14:16:54 2019 31 other username=admin password=cisco fail
Fri Jan 11 14:16:55 2019 31 other username=admin password=administrator fail
.....

--- End code ---

 Luckily the first thing I do when I setup a new router is to change the default password.

What hardware version do you have?

Current firmware?

GreenBay42:
Depending on the firmware and your region, log into the router web UI, go to Maintenance > Access Controls. Click the Services button.

Uncheck SSH and then click Apply.

There is no Maintainence--> Access Control page.
