After yesterdays triumph, today's #HomeLab adventure is firing up an old PlusNet ISP router (actually a rebranded BT DSL hub by #Sagemcom), upgrading #OpenWRT and then using it as a bridge to a mobile b/b hotspot.

The router is ancient, £15 s/h on eBay. All I've done so far is turn the power on so anything could happen, or not happen 

Kit from #ActionTec and #Sagemcom remotely ruined and required replacement.

Almost half of #Windstream’s #Kinetic broadband users found their home routers completely dead, thanks to a malicious botnet known as #Chalubo. This happened seven months ago, but has only now come to light—via researchers who dubbed it #PumpkinEclipse.

It has echoes of Ukrainian #ISP modems mysteriously self destructing, just before the 2022 Russian invasion. In #SBBlogwatch, we wonder if this was a test of something bigger.

‘Pumpkin Eclipse’ — 600,000+ Rural ISP Routers Bricked Beyond Repair

Daft name, serious risk: Kit from ActionTec and Sagemcom remotely ruined and required replacement.

Ok how does the #sagemcom #gigahub 5689E do 3Gbps wire speed #PPPoE encapsulation when I can't find a 10g #firewall that can do it with less than an i5 in it, at over $1k.

Anyone have a recommendation on a 2 port 10G box for firewall use that can run wire speed PPPoE?

Нашёл ревизию 3, пиздец. Ни usb, ни ftp, ни доступа в telnet. Как они такое говно делают.

Роутер нашёл вчера, оказывается, что на него есть прошивка OpenWRT с сайта 4PDA.
Роутер работает, что уже приятно, а то я хз сколько он лежал в том месте. Интересно почему его выкинули, а не продали. Остаётся только провод питания найти, а то от универсального адаптера питание ноутбук работает.

Ролик по прошивке нашёл: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVVFUyM_uGE

Приятно стало, а то мне нужен ротер на OpenWRT, надеюсь, что wifi работать будет 😃

sup people, our fricccccking home gateway thingy messed up* and i had to set up a separate router to provide WIFI

thank you #Telekom and #Sagemcom

*:it seems that almost any interaction with the wifi makes everything break Except! for the landline phone
so.... idk, we'll call the ISP tomorrow

also @ #Sagemcom
where are the kernel sources?? where is the firmware blob?? or am I unworthy of seeing them because I'm not employed by an #ISP?

this is what makes people hate capitalism (well. among other things.)

I think building #9front 's #Python with a #divergefs overlay in Bell Labs #Plan9 froze my raspi....
either that or our home gateway is doing a crappy job at switching packets on a simple fucking LAN
which, hopefully isn't the case
I really hope that #Sagemcom and #Telekom wouldn't do such a thing
because #Sagemcom and #Telekom already fucked up by not letting me ssh into the thing and not letting me set up static routes
they really, really fucked up
yay, I can still drawterm into it, but for some reason the static IP I set for it doesn't work??? I think this horrible #sagemcom router lost that setting when I unplugged it????
