Please consider Brown Fine Security: https://brownfinesecurity.com/ AT&T doesn't want their customers to modify their own devices. In this video, I show how hardware hackers can take back control of their devices through the process of firmware extraction and firmware analysis. Specifically, we take a look at the CDS-9010 LTE router and extract the superadmin credentials via the UART U-Boot interface.
