Hmmm...
I got a Firefox, PHP5, HTML project idea.

I always thought it would be cool to have a Firefox plugin that used PHP to do "Brute Force" Password attacks on routers.
After you have connected to/set up a router sometimes it may be necessary to have Admin access to change port settings or static DHCP.
It sucks if you forget the password after you changed it.
The IP address of the router can be found easily on the lan, but when you attempt to connect to the HTTP server, (to log on and change settings), you are greeted with this:


Do you think it is possible to run code that would:

1) have a selectable option for the "Username" field based on a list of manufacturer's  default "Usernames"?
Auto detection might be possible as well if the router uses the default name like in the pic above.

2)Read from a .txt, .lst, or .doc file, a list of words created by the user and input them in the "Password" field, one at a time.

3)Click "Ok".

4)(Where Firefox comes in) Go "Back" after getting a "403 Forbidden" error, and try the next word on the list.

There are a couple programs that can do this but they are CPU hogs, not specifically for routers and not (as easily), cross platform.
Being able to do it through Firefox would be supersweet and uberleet.
I'll help where I can...
It'll probably take longer than 4 days though...
Waddaya think?
