OMG - I had the same thing happen to me back a few years. What I did was completely destroy ALL computer equipment with a hammer. The weird part about it was it keeps coming back now even 10 years later. On May 29, 2016 3:23 PM, "Percy Blakeney" di99in5@gmail.com wrote:
I did just that. TWICE. I now have a total of 5 phones, 3 laptops, 2 desktops 2 printers, and I'm now on my third router/modem. Whomever, whatever this is knows how to get into the firmware. I know this sounds crazy but it's true. I'd give anything for someone to come here and see for themselves.

Given what you've said, you might want to replace all of your electronics. The router, and all computers and other devices that have been connected to it, through wires or WiFi. Maybe also change ISP.
That may seem extreme. For computers, it might be sufficient to replace HDDs/SSDs. But smartphones, you should just replace entirely. The concern is that malware can be hidden in other components, not just in HDDs/SSDs.
Also, be very careful about transferring files from old machines. If you must, transfer individual files, not entire folders. Ideally, you would scan each file for malware in an intermediate throwaway machine, running a different OS. Maybe OSX, if your other machines are Windows and Linux. Or Windows, if your other machines are OSX and Linux. You can use USB flash drives. But use a given one only for a given pair of machines, to reduce the risk of transferring malware.
