Hey there, I’m new to the programming comunity and I have a few questions regarding my wifi router and the network in general. If this is not the right subreddit, please redirect me to the one best fit for this question. So i found an old router in my house, that I don’t remember password to. It is kinda old, but still functional nonetheless and just throwing it away would be a waste, so I made quite fun programming challange for me: I want to use python to make a password cracker for this router. I know I could take it to an expert, but where’s the fun in that? My question is that even possible? I might get timed out after like 10 tries, what libraries I use (I was thinking of windows api and then cycle for every single password) Might use threading to make it faster. Do I need any…

I might get timed out after like 10 tries, what libraries I use (I was thinking of windows api and then cycle for every single password) Might use threading to make it faster. Do I need any other knowledge? Oh and one other question while on topic - what is an ip adress? From all the tutorials ive heard its “internet’s way to recognize you” and you should never give it away to someone, but it seems really simple: 188.300.. or something. Seems really simple to find out anyone’s IP, esspecially if a lot of them are in use. I know this is a large request, so thank you for everyonr, who helps me out ;)
