Bad security leak Brightbox routers.

Had a couple of Brightbox routers given to me to play with today off 'Freecycle' www.freecycle.org , did a bit of searching found this, (see below) tried it and I can confirm that they give a lot out if you ask.  :o

I understand that blog write-up was about the original BrightBox, not the current BrightBox2.

Of course, in all probability, the two you had acquired probably are the original devices.  :-X
