3. run the command "ps"
4. scroll through the list to find the "pppd" command, it will look something like: 5175 2365 root S 3304 1% 0% /usr/sbin/pppd nodetach ipparam wan ifname pppoe-wan lcp-echo-interval 10 lcp-echo-failure 5 lcp-echo-adaptive set PEERDNS=0 nodefaultroute usepeerdns maxfail 1 user PPPOEUSERNAME password PPPOEPASSWORD ip-up-script /lib/netifd/ppp-up ipv6-up-script /lib/netifd/ppp6-up ip-down-script /lib/netifd/ppp-down ipv6-down-script /lib/netifd/ppp-down plugin connstate.so mtu 1500 mru 1500 plugin rp-pppoe.so graceful_restart /etc/ppp/pppoesession_vlan_wan nic-vlan_wan host-uniq SOMMESTRING
5. The username and password are passed as arguments to that pppd command, so copy them down and do with them what you want!

Any idea for the DGA4135?

If the router firmware is based on customzied OpenWRT, you can try:

uci show network.wan.password
uci show network.wan

Thank you very much

As someone else has said, for the model Technicolour 4135, the password for user 'engineer', is under the sticker on the back of the router. Took me a while to work out, but all good now. I bought a new Router as the Trooli one was blocking outgoing for certain Apps, which can be fixed by setting the Firewall to 'Low', and the wireless was a bit flakey, as well as the switch being very temperamental if it had a hard power down. Good luck!
