I think it might have been used as a proxy server myself. I never did get any "good" answers as to what they were doing. When I found one with "socks" enabled and i clicked on connections usually there were none in use. I did find one a few days ago that had about 20 active connections before I cleaned it up.

There would be a seemingly random high numbered port assigned to it. I had a few customer routers get hacked with this. Can you explain what they were doing by configuring IP > Socks? I thought maybe it was a way of creating a backdoor into the router.

I'm still a little skeptical that's the explanation. If nothing else, you'd think the blacklist would expire after 24 hours or something.
