Hacking the HooToo HT-TM05

cryptographrix/HooToo_HT-TM05-hacking

Summary

This repo contains a basic script that downloads the current firmware for the HooToo HT-TM05 portable router and lets you access and modify everything.

What this actually does

1. Downloads the firmware zip file from the HooToo download site (ZIP)
2. Unzips that into the actual update file, which is a stub of sh and initrdup.gz (UPDATE)
3. Splits the UPDATE file into start_script.sh and initrdup.gz
4. Gunzips initrdup.gz into initrdup
5. Creates ./mount and...
6. Mounts initrdup into ./mount

Anything you want - eventually you'll need to reverse the process:

1. sync and unmount initrdup
2. gzip initrdup
3. cat start-script.sh initrdup.gz > fw_...
4. zip fw into HooToo....
