  • Tool for extracting PPPoE username and password

how many characters should be the password of the pppoe of Thomson tg585v7 (ogero)?
mokhtar wroteWhen my Ogero Technicolor TG582n router's LAN ports got fried taking with it my XBox LAN port (not sure if the cause was lightning or some power surge) I got no love from ogero customer support. I needed to change my router.

Going through the forum I found some older posts about how to get the PPPoE username and password, but the techniques seemed outdated and no longer applicable presumably because of newer firmware. (Please update me if I'm wrong or point me to the right post)

So I found my own way. I wrote a tool (chrome app) for retrieving the account details, and would like to share it here:

Can I use this tool to recover username and password , then hard reset my wireless router and then setup my custom SSID and password? or there is a tool to have login username and password "of the wireless router"

Mine is 18 characters.
Hey @313 It only extracts the PPPoE password. Not the router admin passwords. So yes you would have to reset your router and do a clean setup from scratch to have admin access to it.

Well the tool just uses the UPnP API exposed by the router. So Any router that supports the specific function that I am using will work.
If you can figure out which upnp library and version is used by technicolor firmware, chances are other modems using the same software will be possible to extract the password for.

mokhtar wroteExcellent. :)
It seems like your program works only for technicolor tg582n. Are you considering updating the list of compatible modems?
I'm not quite sure what you mean. Are you asking about the source code, or how I made and published a chrome app in general?
nas93 wrotethanks for the app, can you explain how to get it to work on chrome?

The app stopped working, it says error communicating with router. It worked a couple of months ago on my tg582n. Any updates?
I've been meaning to change my modem for a while now and thanks to Mokhtar's tool I successfully extracted the username and password. But since the password was only 8 sequential digits I'm doubting that it may be too good to be true.

Hence, I'm trying other methods of PPPoE extractions mentioned in the old threads to verify that the PPPoE credentials are actually correct before I buy the new modem. I managed to backup my configuration and snoop around the config. file. I found the password, but it's not Base64 encrypted. If the admins don't mind I'm going to post it down below to see if anyone could decrypt it on my behalf. I'm pretty certain that this doesn't breach any forum rules since the password is useless without its username.

Personally I just used a password revealer extension and got my PPoE password.
since you backed up your configuration, the easiest way to do it is reset the router reconfigure it with the sequential password you got if it works then that's it, if not then restore your backup and you'll know it was wrong.

Tried it on a Technicolor tg582n and it worked. Tried it on a Technicolor tg582n v2 and it didn't. Error 500 bad request.

Any solution for this.

I got this xml file but no username and password.

Just got my DSL, TG582n v2. Returning an error as well, any one have any ideas?
I only have the user/user login credentials. Emailed Mr. Refai's address and replied saying that since it's an unlimited plan they can't provide the credentials.

Anyway of getting username and password from MediaAccess TG582n v2?
Telnet does not work (Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed), and Internet Access is not clickable from the router admin page.

Hello. I Just had my ADSL 200 GB open speed installed using the Technicolor TG582n v2 modem. I have tried to extract my PPPoE by using the methods provided in this forum but nothing would work. I would be grateful if I could be assisted in this matter.
Thank you in advance.

I figured out a way for changing the admin password of the Technicolor TG582n v2 modem, you can also get the pppoe username, but not the password unless someone finds a workaround.

before you start backup your router settings

start by logging into the router using 'user' in both username and password
note down your WAN IP and turn on assistance then note the port, username and password provided by assistance
from any web browser go to > https://[your WAN IP]:[port] and login using the username and password provided by assistance (IT should be HTTPS not http)
now you have accessed the router via internet as admin.
go to management and change the admin password.
you cant reveal the pppoe password as I think it is javascript related

if someone have an idea about decoding the config.bin file that would be more than helpful
I managed to enter to PPPOE user name and password section but when i inspect the password i got this

<input type="password" name="uci_wan_password" autocomplete="off" value="********" class="edit-input span6" maxlength="128">

so when i change the input type to text it still ******** because the attribute "value" is "*******"

any idea how to get the password?

I did it and got the same thing. One advice is don't ever try to change the dhcp or static IP as it will break access to the router. The only way to fix it is to take it to ogero and get them to reinstall the firmware.
