4 edits | Sagemcom F@st 2864 unlock on *nixWith all credit due to lawrenson and this thread (now locked), here is the procedure I followed to achieve the same results without the Telnet.zip file:
Download Config
curl http://admin:admin@192.168.2.1/save_rg_conf.cgi > download.txt
Edit Config
replace:
(telnets(ports))
with:
(telnets
(ports
(0
(port(23))
(ssl_mode(none))
(remote_access(0))
)
)
)
Post File
curl --data-urlencode new_rg_conf@download.txt http://admin:admin@192.168.2.1/replace_rg_conf.cgi
I would have added this to the other thread, but unfortunately, it's locked.
Also, this device contains a ton of GPL'd software. Shouldn't the source for this device be available ala WRT54g? Does anyone know who was responsible for the liberation of the WRT54g, perhaps they'd be interested in this also:
cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.16.26 #1 Fri Jun 15 14:52:40 CEST 2012
That's f'd up - did nobody yet notice this is a linux box? (IANAL, but it looks like Bell or Sagemcom may be in violation of the GPL....) |

kudos:2 | Yes we've gained access to it as well using this method but I've yet to manage to reflash it through the CLI. The ability to do so appears to have been locked out in the firmware |

... which would also be different violation of the GPL, I think. |

Anjou, QC | stupid question... what's to gain out of unlocking it? |
|
| Line stats, as usual. 
I'm assuming TSI would want firmware backup/updates to help provision gear. |

It's something that I looked into while first trying to find a way into the modem, knowing that it ran on OpenRG and therefore Linux. I ran into other GPL violation complaints involving Sagem, and seem to recall somewhere saying that they'll send you a copy of GPL'd code if you send a written request. |

Except that it seems TSI has little access to these boxes and knows little about them. They only see the radius activity. The box is pretty locked down to Bell. So yeah, a little more access would be nice.
*That's* why it needs unlocking. I'm a little bothered that in semi bridge mode it always has a default connection to Bell. The logs and stats suck. The clock is stupid. In general the box hides many of the control features we want and is a bit shady having a Bell back door. |

3 edits | So shall we request the GPL code and inform the FSF ? I'd really like to get rid of that bell connection and have a proper bridge mode... I feel vulnerable knowing I have a second open IP running crappy/vulnerable Bell code and letting them backdoor my firmware. Also, anyone heard of a class action lawsuit against this forced modem rental scheme? There are some in the US it seems...

No but the provider can see some stats from their end. When they see it all as good then we're at an impasse if there are stability problems. So until we have modem choice or can hack for stats VDSL is dead to me. |

Montreal, QC | It's possible to d/l to the jffs2 partition via tftp so we could probably d/l a binary to do things, but yeah, I get what you're getting at and it's a very sad situation.
Anyone knows how can they legally force the rental? |

I only get a box to re-enter the password. "admin" doesn't work for me. |

1 edit | This no longer works on the latest firmware.
For now we don't have any other way of enabling telnet.
I have an idea for another method that may work, no promises though since I haven't had much time to look into it or do any testing.
edit: Unfortunately the new method no longer works on the latest firmware either |

kudos:1 | Firmware needs to be pulled and examined.Dunno if anyone has done it lately.Could be they encrypted it but if its GPL'd just ask bell for the source or get the GPL group to file a lawsuit |
|
| Do you know how to pull the firmware? I happen to have one that's telnet-able. |

Brampton, ON | I was able to telnet in to my new Sagemcom this morning. There appear to be commands to flash firmware and do a variety of other tasks. |
