At Defcon 16 we showed various modifications and techniques to gain free and anonymous cable modem internet access. During our last talk, the DOCSIS hacking scene was behind the cable companies. Thanks to the efforts of SBHacker and others, we our now ahead of the cable companies. This talk will analyze and discuss the tools, techniques, and technology behind hacking DOCIS 3.0. We will also cover new areas like hacking PacketCable and discuss all of the DOCSIS related arrests since our last speech. We will be releasing the Haxomatic USB JTAG/SPI programmer by Rajkosto & SBHacker and updated DOCSIS 3.0 hacked firmware for TI puma5-based cable modems at this talk.
