Was there a question about hackers accessing your CPAP machine. I am experiencing thi
On this day of December 24 2023, I have experienced hacker accessing my CPAP machine. I woke to very high pressure in my naval area to the point of a lot of pain. I’m afraid to put my mask back on. This is someone who also hacks my devices I own. These people live next door to me or are within 30 feet of my home. I have notified authorities but they retaliate and this time they did it with my Dream Mapper machine. This machine uses bluetooth technology.

Put your machine in airplane mode, it time to go silent. There’s other things we can do if they escalate these attacks but I think this should be effective. Keep us updated. Good luck! Be safe!

Interesting....... In order to pair/connect a device to the DreamStation by Bluetooth, they would need the 6 digit PIN code from the display and they also would have to physically press the control dial on the DreamStation to confirm and allow the connection. Unless they've entered your house to pair the DreamStation to their device, the DreamStation Bluetooth should be secure from anyone other than you.
I think I would download and install the OSCAR software and look for any changes in the machines settings during the night that could affect how the pressure was delivered. This could also be evidence of proof of any hacking. |
