Hated the music loved the video : >

[Tricking DSL modem]

You can remove the guts of it ... put an arduino like board inside it and use it to turn the leds on and off or whatever

As for using the modem's hardware to do that ... well it is possible but it would require lots and lots of trial and error, debugging or having very detailed reference of it

[ophcrack questions]

i have a question too ... is it possible to run ophcrack without the tables ? as a normal bruteforce app ?
