Privacy of ISP's customers

[Alcides <alcides.hercules () gmail com>]

Hi List,
I'm presently working with a semi-government ISP as a security consultant.
The ISP is a local telecom big fish. It has provided Internet access to 
the customers via phone lines, it's using DSL.
The customer has DSL router as a CPE. ISP people configure it with 2 IP 
addresses; one local and one global, and implement NAT for security. And 
the router is configured using both ie Global/Private IP address in a 
browser.
I recently have been asked to find out loopholes in the mentioned system 
where the customer's privacy is not taken care or can be compromised. 
Now when I started my activities impersonating a normal customer, I 
found that:
1]I can nmap and discover open ports on my and neighboring IP addresses.
2] This included HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMB, NB-SSN etc services listening 
for incoming connections.
3]When I try to connect to some customer's HTTP port, I'm taken to 
his/her DSL-router(CPE) config. page, Configuration password is asked 
but is blank.

Now my questions:
1]What kind of tests can be carried out in order to find out what level 
of access can other customers gain and
2]What degree of impact can it have as far as the privacy of the 
customers is considered.
Thanking you,
