This is all the work of Brian Capouch whom I met at Astricon 2006. He's a professor at Saint Joe's University in Indiana and runs a wireless ISP business. He uses the WGT634u as his wireless clients and runs Asterisk™ on them for phone service. Basically, if you have a clean Netgear WGT634u router, then you can use the web interface to upload the openwgt-0.06a.img file. After this completes, then your router will be running OpenWGT. In order for it to start up asterisk you will need a USB thumb drive with the first partition formated as an ext3 partition. On this partition you need to unpack asterisk.tar.bz2 on to it. You will also need to install asterisk-1.2.13_mipsel.ipk. This can be done with the ipkg program. I put the file on the thumbdrive and installed it from there. When the thumb drive is inserted and the router is powered on, then asterisk should start automatically. The root password is getlostman and the default ip address is 192.168.2.1 on the LAN ports. The WAN port is set up to get it's address from DHCP. The wireless is not configured by default, but can be setup by editing the config files. Hopefully for anyone that is looking around for a solution this is of some help. The files are included for registered users to download. I'm looking at doing this with OpenWRT that offers some upgrades over the OpenWGT platform.
