One of the weak points with domestic-grade ADSL routers is the fact that they store passwords in plain text.
If one is able to access the router's configuration by logging into the box (default p/w: admin/admin, admin/password, etc.), it is easy to save the configuration to a file on your system. Examining that file will normally reveal the ISP login/password. The first check I make when I take on a new client. Second is to recommend upgrading the hardware. -- Peter van Houten On the 21/05/2009 05:14, Don Ely wrote the following:
