Hi there tek-ians!

I am unable to remove this frigging adware which has infected either my router or wifi switch :(

It just doesn't go.I have tried many anti virus,anti malware and for the heck of it formatted my machine. 

And that's how I got to know it may have affected my router or wifi switch. 

Now I can't login to my local address as it doesnt accept any of the user name password combination.

Help ? :(

Couldn't download from that link so tried looking for it in chrome webstore. Thanks. But any idea of how to completely remove it?

i would do a complete reformat. boot into windows install and delete all the partitions on the hd.

If you think it's on your router you should get a new one.

Will try that/

I haven't done it before, but I think reinstalling the routers firmware would be the next logical step:

Edit: but without an infected PC.

XD. If it gets insanely hard, it could maybe just be an easy issue. You are welcome.
