This is gonna sound dodgy but bear with me lol.
I rent a student house out with 3 other people and we have a supplied thomson DG585 ADSL2+ modem router for our included internet. However, theres 2 massive issues with this router:
1 - our landlord has forgotten the password for its login, so we can't change the SSID or turn uPNP off
2 - the default SSID on this type of router is directly related to the defauly WEP key on it, ours included. Just tried a WEP key cracker on the 4 other default thomson routers in range and I could gain internet access on all of them -.-
My landlord is on holiday until mid january and I can't play games like killing floor and BF3 with uPNP enabled as I suffer constant disconnects to it. Due to the security issue in tow, is it possible to get through the Admin password (which my landlord doesnt even know, told me numerous times before)?
