Hack Correlation

I recently had to work with a home fiber router that was supplied by the ISP,  the FiberHome AN5506-02-F. Compared to the previous internet access solution, which was based on a cable modem and required the user to use their own router, the new solution has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantages would be: integrated WiFi, security and firewall. The disadvantages: only one LAN port available (@100Mbps), only 2.4GHz (@150Mbps), outdated software, locked-down interface, no easy way to expose a second router. The unit is very similar to the AN5506-04 model (  http://flytec.com.py/download/files/AN5506-04F-manual.pdf ), except it has only 2 UTP ports, only 1 phone port and no CATV interface. Exposing the inner router To get around the issue of the (old) router not being accessible from outside, the solution is to add that router into the DMZ setting. This is needed for things like web hosting, ftp server, some chat clients, torrents, etc. You can log in with ...

I bought one of these cheap 'wireless drives' from Amazon:  https://www.amazon.de/I-ONIK-70752-i-onik-WIFI-Cloud/dp/B00I16C1K2/ Currently (early 2017) selling for 15E, I think I paid 12E including shipping. This post will focus on basic features and some early data. Later posts will go into some reverse-engineering, featuring a great YouTuber, LiveOverFlow . If you like reverse-engineering you will surely enjoy his tutorials. By the time you read this he will have probably published his first video showing you how to get into the device. He also discovered that a very similar device is being sold under the Strontium Mobile Wifi Cloud (Sri-CUBa-3KW) moniker in US and India. However that one is advertised as having a 3000mAh battery while this one only has a 1900mAh one. Edit The excelent video from  LiveOverFlow  is up:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxE2ITDWsNE

This is a quick update to some projects that I've been working on. My txtr Beagle PC software fork has received an updated version. Changes and tutorial here: https://github.com/ligius-/jbeagle In Germany youtube gets to screw us twice - most music videos cannot be viewed and ads are shown on 90% of the videos. The iOS and Android youtube players cannot skip those ads. Here's my solution to that - buy a TL-WR841N router and give it as a present to some close friend in another country. It's a decent router and my custom firmware adds VPN server support so you can get rid of those pesky ads and private 'law' agencies monitoring* : https://github.com/ligius-/WR841N-VPN Afterwards just set up a normal VPN connection - works with Windows, iOS and Android, out of the box. For Android I recommend VpnROOT instead of the stock feature. *Those so-called agencies are private companies monitoring your traffic for 'illegal' content. They have automated softw...
