Hardware 1... can you post this here for everyone? I found the passwords, and Kinky figured out how to put them to great use.

HACK TO USE WS WITH YOUR OWN ISP. NO HARDWARE CHANGES REQUIRED
===============================================================

Here are the steps to hack a virgin (as in unmodified) Websurfer to use your own ISP.

1. Connect everthing. Go through registration screen and provide information.
2. Be sure to choose "I'll use my own ISP" option.
3. In the next screen, enter all the ISP parameters. Set up atleast one user.
4. Now, hit Ctrl+Alt+M
5. In the pop-up box enter f1n9eR
6. You are in the Control Panel.
7. Change all *.websurfer.com URL in all the screens to something else (preferrably your own server, so that you'll know when the WS is trying to call home).
8. Go to the other settings screen
9. Change the Device ID from 0 to a non-zero number (e.g 1234). Save the settings.
10. Power off the WS and power back on.
11. You should now be past the registration screen.
12. Say YES to "Are you still using this number .... ?" question (if asked)
13. Choose a User, modify ISP settings if necessary and dial-out.
