I'm in the middle of a Netgear beta test of a new variant of their existing C7000B 24x8 Docsis 3 cable modem / router. Being a beta unit, it has an added ethernet WAN port for testing of the wireless router side of the unit without the cable modem side used. (They're waiting until after the beta test of the router features / stability before having the unit certified on the cable provider's networks. After we're done with Phase I we'll be testing it on the cable network in Phase II).
I have access to the eCos shell on the unit, but the 'shell' command for invoking the linux shell is not functional. Anyone that knows Netgear's equipment or combo modem / routers better than I do have a clue on how I might gain access to the linux side of this router (without JTAG/console access).
