Ik zal deze topic maar beginnen met te zeggen dat ik door een "domme" handeling de modem vermoedelijk verneukt heb.
Het gaat om een Alcatel Speedtouch Home modem (PSTN) die een hack naar pro ondergaan heeft in het verleden. Welnu, telnetten naar de modem (10.0.0.138) lukt niet meer alsook naar de webinterface browsen en tevens werkt ook de reset-knop aan de achterkant niet. Ik heb al gezocht naar een oplossing en die deels gevonden op onderstaande link:

I had the same problem on 2 such units. The reset button on the "ST Home" model appears to do nothing. All instructions I have seen have all said that when the reset button is pressed, the "Power" LED should change to amber to signify that it is actually resetting back to default settings.
I tried for days to get these modems to reset (as it appeared that someone had set passwords on them, and I couldn't get into them to configure).
Eventually, I removed the "mainboard" from one and checked the functionality of the reset switch. The push button switch appears to function correctly (based on the multi-meter readings). I still could not get it to reset to default (and get rid of the password request).
Keep in mind thet the "mainboard" is likely to be the same for both the Home and Pro, and I started to think about the "default reset" procedure for the "Pro" units. The only apparent difference, is that the Pro models have the set of 4 dip-switches, and the Home models have just the one push-button reset switch. The mainboard in the "Home" model still has the 8 connectors (or rather the solder points for them) on the board for the 4 dip-switches and the 9 connectors for the serial console port.
By looking at the layout of the dip-switches and the serial console port for the Pro model, you can easily see which "pair" of solder points on the board need to be bridged to perform the "Pro version reset". This procedure did reset the defaults (and maintained the "Pro upgrade").
This method is not for the "beginners", but it did work on my 2 modems. You will need to dismantle the modem by removing (in my case, at least) 4 "torx" screws that were hiding under the barcodeed serial number sticker under the modem. You don't really need to remove the mainboard from the lower casing, as you can access the connections from above.
I hope this helps a few people out, as I have seen this issue on a few boards before.
I think that, as a part of the upgrade process, the reset function is changed to the "Pro" and therefore disables the push button reset option. I don't have acces to another of these modems at the moment, but the next time I have one, I'll upgrade it and test the reset, and then revert to "Home" and see if the reset option is re-instated.
Good luck.

Nu was mijn vraag, omdat ik niet beschik over een echte pro-versie, welke van de soldeerpunten op de printplaat ik dien te "shorten" of te bruggen om zo een reset teweeg te kunnen brengen ?
Ik heb een paar foto's genomen van de printplaat:

Kan iemand mij hier bij helpen (door bijvoorbeeld op 1 van de foto's aan te duiden welke soldeerpunten ik dien te bruggen) ?
