External attempt to my Hopper blocked by ISP

[jsmit86]

I got a message this morning from my ISP that they blocked 4 connection attempts to my Hopper3 from 89.248.163.78 in the Netherlands.
I have never seen anything like that before. Weird.

You would be surprised how many things try to attack or access all your internet devices each day.

Remember the safest network is one that is unplugged.

I never set up invisible Captcha on my Xenforo Forum. I am in Project Honeypot (Not so good) OMG!!! Mine is small, has much less traffic, and every day I'd delete over 30 spambots who joined, bypassing email and two-factor authentication in CP/Users/.
Since adding Invisible Captcha, I've had 3, ever.

I can only imagine what a site like this gets

That netblock has been doing sketchy crap for years.

Looking at ModSecurity we had over 200 blocks today.

Looking at the firewall close to 1,400 blocks today. Todays top blocked country is China. Congrats China.

Why would your Hopper 3 be visible on the Internet?

It has a server in it for Dish Anywhere.

Sure, but doesn't that use Dish's servers as a go-between? My Hopper's IPv4 address is non-routable, and unless it initiates the outgoing connection, my Router won't pass traffic to it.
