With this simple setup we can finally have access to the router console and see all the boot messages: Welcome to minicom 2.7.1ĭecompressing Bootloader. Remember to NOT attach the VCC pin because the required power will be provided by the standard supply. Soldered UART pinsĪfter this little soldering, we can attach a common interface based on the FTD232 and have a console access. Anyway, UART pins are the same of other boards and we need to solder 3 pins (Tx, Rx, and GND) and short circuit R62 and R63 as noted in the above link. We're definitely dealing with a slightly smaller memory chip. These boards have three types of EEPROM chip but none of them have this Spansion chip, only the DANT-V version has a Spansion chip but it's an FL129P, a 128 Mbit flash memory. They mention three board type: DANT-1, DANT-T, and DANT-V. Although the board perfectly matches to the devices described in that page, I noted a slight difference on the EEPROM chip. I didn't put too much effort in this because the nice guys of OpenWRT project did all the dirty job. This device has a flash memory module produced by Spansion (now Cypress) with the capacity of 64 Mbit (8 Mbyte). Obviously I'm interested in the EEPROM chip, because it's where the non-volatile data is stored and persists across reboots and shutdowns. Winbond W9751G6KB-25 Spansion FL064PIFįor the volatile data, the device uses a DDR2 SDRAM module produced by Winbond with the capacity 512 Mbit (64 MByte). There's also another Broadcom chip but its role is to manage wireless functionalities and, for now, is out of scope. Router motherboard with the relevant ICs Internal components analysisĪ pretty standard design for this kind of device, we can clearly see the main CPU Broadcom BCM63281KFBG and its two memory ICs ( Integrated Circuits): RAM and Flash memory.
Technicolor router tg582n serial#
Nothing too much interesting externally: for this purpose, common useless informations about wireless access code, serial number, mac-address, etc.Ī much more interesting view is the internal one: I was able to remove the two lower screws, under the rubbers and, with a gentle lever, the upper part can be unhooked giving access to the router motherboard.

My first device was the Technicolor TG582N distributed in Italy by Fastweb.
Technicolor router tg582n crack#
So what a great opportunity to open and try to crack them, without worrying about irreparable damage? Inspecting the device During last months, my interest in hardware hacking got an exponential growth due to the fact I had the chance to get my hands on some so-ho routers unretired from local Telcos.
