This fellow, zoot, managed to get a shell, so it's already 'hacked' really. https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=152271#p...

its one of these all i know is with LBO limiting the access users can use its a bit of a disappointment lol.

LBO? Is that a Leveraged Buy Out or a Large Bowel Obstruction?! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LBO

Here's betting that if you crack open the case, you'll find some thru holes or even pins for UART and/or JTAG.

cheers, a

Sorry, oops.. see what you mean.. LBO = Little Big One.. I though it was some hitherto unknown firmware protection mechanism!

Somebody should update the LBO entry for Wonkypedia!

cheers, a

Maybe pop the lid and take some hi-res photos of both sides of the PCB. They will be very interested on http://www.openwrt.org
If the 2812 supplied by LBO is also running OpenWRT, then the GPL'ed source code for the firmware should be available

Here's some picssorry there not the best i cant find my digi cam so had to use my phone.

As for the origonal post it seams that them adding 8MS to the latency has solved the instability ive been getting 1 drop a day around 9PM that i can live with, 70/24 with 1 drop is much better than 50/15 dropping every 15-20 mins lol

Heh, thanks acpsd775,

That looks suspiciously like a UART port with four pins already installed! Oh my!

{GND, VCC (3.3v TTL), RX, TX}

Test with a voltmeter for GND and VCC (you won't need the latter though).. And then trial and error to find RX and TX.

With the pins found, one of those el-cheapo (£1.30) USB-UART converters would be fine to gain a serial port shell.. [1]

The UART port is driven at 3.3v TTL voltage levels, so can't be directly connected to an RS232 port on the PC. Many/most PCs don't even have RS232 these days.

The CPU and RAM must both be hidden under that shielding. CPU is dual MIPS-cored, Lantiq XWAY VRX288 though? [2]
The Lantiq XWAY Analog Front End & Line Driver VRX208 IC is shown on the right
NAND flash (Samsung K9F1G08U0D - 128Mbit, i.e. 16Mbyte in a TSOP48 IC package) [3]
WLAN controller (Ralink RT3062, or maybe the RT3052.. can't quite read it)
Not sure what that IC on the left is.. ethernet switch controller, presumably. Looks like it says Lantiq on it too??

With a cable, it should be unlocka-doable in a few minutes

Hope it's okay to post ebay link on TBB. No connection to vendor except as a former buyer. Not the fastest get rich quick scheme - selling £1.30 cables (inc P&P)

A bit earlier, Little Big One was added to the "disambiguation" wonkypage for LBO, and already it's been reversed!
They don't like it up 'em, Mister Mainwaring!
