Work are chucking out a “Cisco 887VA-M” integrated services router.
Anyone know if I can install some custom OS/firmware via the USB on the back?
I expect this is just e-waste but maybe it has some use as emergency switch :)
You must log in or register to comment.
You can use it as a VDSL modem if you have FTTC internet
If it doesn’t have Gigabit ports (minimum), it’s useless. Judging by that USB 1.1 port, I wouldn’t hold my breath.
Anything Cisco that says FE is 10/100mbit.
FE for FastEthernet, right?
Yep.
Depending on how old it is it may be a good space heater.
Foot warmer for under your desk
Not much unless you want to learn how Cisco works.
Well it says it’s PoE
See if you can find the chinese backdoor on it.
