Find an image from a router with the same CPU and try to boot it.Some other page mentions that the BBOX3 is simply a rebrand of a Sagemcom F@ST 3864.Browsing theOpenWRT builds leads me to brcm63xxand consequently to theFAST2704V2-squashfs-cfe.bin. I willattempt to boot this via tftpboot. The assumption is that it is from a similar brandand seeing as tftpboot should boot from RAM and not flash, hopefully the device willnot be bricked.

Flashing with tftp

Some of the uboot commands are not running as expected. Performing gowith the address just seems to freeze the device. Perhaps the uboothas been tainted with.

To Try:

• Try reflashing uboot in CFE?
• Try all different images based on bcm63xxx
