The password is an 10 digit integer. You could brute force that on an
average machine in a couple of days.

Also:
The Home is wide open to the WAN in 'Bridge' mode, which means anyone
that finds the 'Expert' password algorythm can get into *any* speedtouch
home.
None of this affects the USB, but if you have a speedtouch home, be careful.
On the other hand, now I know the username of the 'Expert' user I'm
definately going to find out the password...
