The SkyUser consumer website reports that Sky Broadband's (BSkyB) Netgear v2 DG934g based router modems have a security flaw, which given a degree of technical know-how, could be exploited to gain a customers username and password.

Most recently it has been discovered that the Netgear V1 DG834GT based routers may suffer from a similar vulnerability, albeit only if you use the hardware’s Wireless capabilities and default WPA Passphrase (i.e. the one printed on the sticker underneath the router):


Thankfully Sky has issued a new document explaining how customers can change the default password, which can be found linked at the bottom of the related SkyUser News Item.
