[VoIP] Asterisk on Wyse Diskless 941G "Thin" client terminal

[John Novack]

I have a similar HP 5515 with Linux already on the flash. It also was a 
thin client for Citrix.
Unfortunately, at the moment I am not smart enough to go very far with it.
I am still having problems getting an ASUS router configured well enough 
to run Asterisk.
John Jones and Paul Wills have successfully done that, but we had other 
items to cover at the show and didn't get to the router configuration.
