So the network is just a typical home network (netgear modem, asus router with raspberry pi running Adgard dns server) and it got hacked. First I’ll tell you how I know I got hacked. Some things I noticed is my router admin page is very slow, Kaspersky picked up a exe running in a temp folder that I can’t access or even upload because I lack administrator status (I’ve tried everything to get into that folder and upload it to virus total), my modem is always 24/7 sending/receiving info, someone keeps on breaking my 60 digit WiFi password and 10 hidden ssid’s follow the channel my WiFi is on (now I don’t run WiFi). Now my issue is whenI connect any sort of windows device to my network a windows temp folder is created (that I can’t access at all) and thanks to Kaspersky I can see that it has and is uploading and downloading tons of info. Thanks for reading all of this and do you have any advice?

More likely Kaspersky is slowing your computer down…especially via a safe browser extension.

So, do you have admin access or not?

See the first point I made.

Reread that and see if it makes any networking sense…HINT: it does not.

Uninstall Kaspersky, reboot, use inbuild Defender. If really paranoid, run a free Malwarebytes scan.
Judging by how literally all of your posts are you asking hysterical questions about things that are neutral/uncertain if not innocuous, I’m guessing that kaspersky itself and/or something you’ve done is the cause of the problem. Try a better AV. If that doesn’t work, hire a professional, because you are clearly not equipped to deal with an actual cleanup of nasty malware.
Just curious, so once you noticed that your machine is compromised. You didn’t bother to take it off the network?
Here’s what I would do:
- take it off the network
- scan the PC (off network and not with Kaspersky).
- if any important file isn’t compromised, back those up.
- nuke the HDD/SSD. I would use Killdisk but format would probably do.
- reinstall OS and whatever you need after.
Best check all the machines on the network as well. Since you don’t exactly know how you got compromised, there are chances that other machines on the network are compromised as well.
