I'm having major problems with my apple products. I keep getting redirected to other sites and apps when I click on links when browsing safari. I'm to a point where I don't want to use my apple products. It first started on my iPad. Then, my MacBook and iPhone. I have the newest versions of each product. Is this a virus? How can I stop it?
MacBook, iOS 4
Double clicking the Home button and swipe Safari upwards. Go to Settings/Safari and clear History and Website Data. Open Safari and test.
Safari - Clear the history and cookies on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
I am using an iPhone 7S and this crap seems to happen to me all the time. I don’t even have my phone connected to WiFi, as I have unlimited data. So what else could the problem be?
I get constant trash we I do a google search, websites are giving me amazon gift card redirects, and just all out sending me 10 or more sites within a matter of seconds.
Hope this helps.

Best.
If it's happening on several different devices, the router/modem has likely been hacked.
Reset it to defaults & set a new access password, or meantime, test using a different wireless network.
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network ▹ Advanced... ▹ DNS
Under DNS Servers you should have one or more numerical addresses, such as “192.168.1.1” or “10.0.0.1”. What are those addresses?
It is VERY annoying that Safari redirects me to a region language when choosing a page. I do NOT speak Thai....I want the Englisch version - for which my whole Mac is set to!
