dump the modem via jtag open in an hex editor and search for the word password

If you didn't change the telnet password, it's also possible to log into telnet and view the GUI password there. As seen here, you can use the following telnet command:

read_memory -s1 -n16384 0x9fd40000

It should spit out something like this, with the username and password in plaintext.
Code:

haxorware's password location is dynamic that will not work everytime

If you forgot the password and you have a jtag, just do this

detect
erase 9FD40000 B0000

Then start over "clean"
