My wife and I signed up with Vonage VoIP service last week. They sent us a telephone adapter to plug into our DSL modem/router that would allow us to use our analog phones with Vonage. Since it's plugged in to our router, I found its IP address and scanned it with nmap. The thing allows http and ssh access. nmap said the adapter runs Linux with a 2.4.x kernel. I played around some with the web interface after discovering the username and password. I'd really like to view some of the configuration settings and maybe see exactly how OUR adapter translates analog data into digital data, plus I've never looked around an embedded system before, but the username used for the web interface is not an actual account on the adapters OS. I'd like to look around in there, but I don't the names of any of the accounts, and even if I did, I don't know the password. The only way I know that the username I used to get into the web interface is not an account on the system is because I can view the system log from the web interface. I own the adapter; it's sitting on my desk beside me. I just want to explore the filesystem. Is there any way I can get in? Does anyone know any tricks for doing this?
