Every RuggedCom device starts with 00-0A-DC (http://www.coffer.com/mac_find/?string=ruggedcom). Even without the MAC, you really only have to search 2^24 possible passwords. And that's assuming they randomize their mac allocations.

And since the MAC address is visible in the ARP table and on the ethernet, if you're simply able to TCP connect, the MAC address is already given!
