No, but I would appreciate if you told me if you find anything about it ;).

Here in Spain we also use the Alcatel DSL modems ;), as far as I know there
are to models for the Alcatel DSL modems, the Home and the Pro, the Home
version is just a bridge but it also has a CLI to configure it, the Pro
version is actually a router, that supports NAT, Portforwarding, firewall
and much more fun to play with ;), take a loot at www.alcatel.com, there I
found to technical manuals about the to DSL modems, in those documents it
explains how to enter the CLI, how to configure and how to reset to
defaults. Be aware that possibly if you reset it you would loose all the
configuration and it may be hard to recover it. I havent yet tried it, but
if I find something i'll post it to the list.. :)
