Opening router shell

Telnet to the router ( see Router Memory Dump for details on how to do this )

Switch to the system subsection, and open a shell (pretty easy)

  • system

  • shell

Wireless Broadband Router> system

system> shell

Temporary setting log_level off

 

 

BusyBox v1.01 (2005.09.07-07:38+0000) Built-in shell (lash)

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

 

/ # 

 

To retrieve a file from the router use tftp to send the file to your tftp server (you need to set one up)

 

tftp -p -l fileName -r xxx  192.168.1.nn

 

From there you have some more powerful tools to examine the files. 

 

Useful linux tools

  • strings

  • hexeditor

  • objdump

 

openrg seems to contain the http server for admin
