HOWTO: Extracting SNMP data from an Alcatel Speed Touch Home without SNMP support » « WinXP on a Mac contest won, probably

I just created the page about ‘alcatell‘ — a utility born out of necessity. This utility enables one to easily extract information from the Alcatel Speed Touch Home modem — a piece of crap hardware that doesn’t support SNMP.

I created this utility so I could configure a UNIX host to act as a ‘proxy’ for the modem, by responding with values from the binary when it receives SNMP requests querying the modem’ss traffic statistics.
