As we know Routers are vulnerable to attack by the way they are configured. Like having credentials already defined
over the internet can allow cyber criminals to compromise our security by the brute force attack. Another major concern is when
an attacker use entry point to infiltrate our network. A normal home router contains services such as Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol(DHCP),Domain Name System(DNS),Trivial File Transfer Protocol(TFTP),Telnet and so on but they do
not run any protection software such as anti-virus. The more and more use of non-Internet features such as network storage or
voice over IP into the routers raises many security concerns. In this research paper, we investigate the issue regarding these
cases and importance of these devices to be secured. We conclude by suggesting ways to protect routers from botnets without
users interaction, which is possible with the use of ISP,
