I will say that the easiest cable modems to hack are the Motorola surfboards SB3100, SB4100, SB5100 and I think there's a SB2100 aswell but i'm not 100% on that but if there is then i'd have thought that one too! to do these modems you need 3 simple programs and when the first person on here says that they want the files as they'd like to try it out i'll post them on here.
All other modems require soldering and cables and stuff which is still pretty easy to do if you're good with a soldering iron etc but the above modems only require a file to be loaded onto them through a TFTP server which you can host on your own PC and then it'll open up 2 other pages in the cables own internal web pages called hack and sniff which you can check out on http://192.168.100.1/
Anyway, let us know if anyone has a motorola SB series modem and would like to try it so that there's someone out there who can then vouch and backup what i'm saying is right!
Thanks for taking the time to read my thread! |
