[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk on WRT54GS - Slightly OT

I took the precompiled packages for OPENWRT and just configured them. I 
tried first with the WRT54G and mounted volumes via NFS for the binaries 
and the VMAIL folders and even that worked.
But as I wanted the system to be my home system with stand-alone features I 
decided to take the WRT54GS for that and it's working great. As companies 
like SIPGATE.DE are offering German localized (PSTN accessible) numbers for 
FREE, I'm almost able to dump my ISDN lines (which is still not possible in 
Germany, xDSL connections ONLY in connection with POTS or ISDN-lines - for 
consumers) ...

PS:

I made a simple script for the installation of my WRT54GS. First I 
downloaded those ipk-packages on a local linux or windows-box with FTP and 
NFS access and then I ran that script on the WRT which was already running 
on OPENWRT ...
Also, I used WINSCP later to access the WRT directly from a Windows box.

Maybe the following script can give you some orientation. The ASTERISK 
configuration (main topic here)  was business as usual ...
