File: for300-47106ef450c4d70ae95212b93f11d05d
Running strings on the file gives an idea of that this is a firmware-file for some router.
Binwalk will help us with the rest:

So here we have a lzma-compressed kernel, a separator and then a squashfs-filesystem... fair enough...
Extract squashfs
================
Extract the squashfs-file from the firmware-image:
# dd if=for300-47106ef450c4d70ae95212b93f11d05d of=squashfs.out bs=1 skip=983180
Extract contents
================
Extract the content from the squashfs-file:
# unsquashfs-lzma squashfs.out
Parallel unsquashfs: Using 1 processor
1376 inodes (1415 blocks) to write

Game over
=========
Look around and find the key...
# cat squashfs-root/home/dlink/key.txt
ewe know, the sh33p always preferred Linksys
