I can't comment on the Belkin stuff. As for Cisco IIRC, telnet is enabled by default, however it doesn't allow anyone to log in unless a telnet password is set on the vty lines and the login command is configured as well, and those are not set by default. So, you can certainly use a telnet exploit against them because the port is open, but you're not going in via the non-existant password.

Are we not talking about default settings here? How secure is a linksys or cisco AP out of the box? As far as I recall Cisco also enables telnet by default and if you Google for a default administrative password for any network device it won't take you 5 minutes to find it. -Steven
