Been swithering on this for a while . Its still in the early stages and only a thought I had while driving into work this morning
A New Idea to protect your Ambit 250 !!!!
The Joys of a 1hr drive to work , well it got me thinking about how to protect my new shiny and still working Ambit 250
This wont stop them as in the ISP detecting you are running a cloned Mac , But I hope it will stop them bricking our modems !!
How they brick you .
Simple they have access to your modem , via Telnet and upload a whole heap of junk to your modems 16Mb CMOS TSOP .leaving is unrecoverable , unless you de solder and have it re programmed .
I have managed to get hold of the Data Sheet for this chip and been having a look into it .
OK , My thoughts Pin 11 is the WE# “write enable”
Now making this logic High 3.3v should so will disable write to this chip .
Throwing this one to the table .
What’s your thoughts please .
