More info on this fon device:

It's not running vanilla OpenWRT, rather a crippled version that has
most of the advanced features hidden or disabled.  Basically you get a
web-based interface with quite limited features such as port
forwarding or level of encryption, etc.  Not being satisfied with
this, I Googled around a bit and discovered you can enable shell
access if you don't mind voiding your warranty:

BusyBox v1.1.3 (2006.11.21-19:49+0000) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
