NOVEMBER 6, [On Honor of Day of the Dead], we will be hacking DOCSIS 2.0 [(sorry no dinero for DOCSIS 3.0 cable test modem) If you have DOCSIS 3.0 bring along?]<br><div class="gmail_quote"><br>Bring your cable modems (and corresponding firmware [see reference list below] or just come to watch us build a Linux cable modem test distro right on a Motorola SB5101!  <br>

<br>NOTE:  I only have 1 JTAG programming adapter, which is not USB (slow) so be sure to bring any programming adapter equipment that you might  have. [USB Available on EBAY for $30.00 or so..]<br>
<br>We will follow up  this hackfest on the following Tuesday PLUG Security Team Discussion at JCL Cowden Center with a deeper analysis and evaluation of the diagnostic device we created out of the Motorola SB5101 at Gangplankhq.com to include current Cox equipment utilizations for DOCSIS standards 2.0 and 3.0 (channel bonding), speeds, and security that effects us all, however hidden behind a management interface for a cable modem, that we purchased, but for which we do not have password or general access....(scratch head.....wait, where is the ownership??).  <br>

<br>This is a great opportunity to learn about telecommunications (TDM, TCM) standards for DSL, telecommunications legalities verses internet data laws,  privacy the FCC way, and your legal rights with regards to equipment you own, and finally the Cox Cable Acceptable Use Agreement.  <br>


<br>It&#39;s all just a wonderful excuse to hack a perfectly useless (hobbled and crippled by design)  DSL &quot;modem&quot; with a sweet little Linux stack firmware that morphs it into a nice &quot;router&quot; that can blow the top off all previous conceived network performance.<br>

<br>DOCSIS 2.0  HOW FAST....??? We will let you know after our build at Gangplankhq.com on Saturday November 6, 2010 Noon to 3PM.<br>DOCSIS 3.0  4 down 3 up bonded channels which equates to:  160 MB down; 120 up (see Broadcom and TI Competition for these chips/modems (on Linux Open Source)<br>

<br>Motorola&#39;s  SBG6580 3.0 has both a serial port and a USB port, but removed from shelves due to firmware bugs.  We don&#39;t have one, but I know you can get one for fairly cheap? <br> <br>I will be using a Motoroal SB5101 (no bonding sorry).  <br>
<br>Finally, we will demonstrate how to return the Motorola to it&#39;s former state in order to sell it on Ebay, Craigslist, or return it to Fry&#39;s Electronics &lt;/joke&gt;.<br>
<br>Bring your firmware; we will all linux it!<br><br>References: <br>DefCon 18 Video Presentation:  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBieFU2dkDA&amp;feature=player_embedded#at=16" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBieFU2dkDA&amp;feature=player_embedded#at=16</a><br>
