Gold went Postal Today
My Gold's WAN port stopped working today. It appears that it may have been hacked because ISP settings appear to have been changed. I grabbed a screenshot. The WAN connection was set to STATIC IP and I'd originally selected DHCP settings for that.
Internet Unavailable - Please double check your internet settings, and try again. (10).
I'm really puzzled about this. Now I have to go thru and reset up a lot of configurations. These all need to be able to be saved somehow - better than what we've got or even separately. I'm going to have to redo all my IP addresses, port forwarding, etc. because the only way to recover from this was to set it up as new.
My trust in this product just went out the window.

Sorry about the problem. Can you please send the screenshot to help@firewalla.com? We can take a look.
Although, anything is possible on the internet, having someone hacked into the box and figure out how to change the firewalla system to configure a static IP ... is a bit difficult. Could it be possible that the configuration was applied to the wrong segment?
The only 'hack' experience we've seen are smart teens who figure out how to pair their phone with firewalla and mess with the configuration ...
