One could imagine that you could just use the ATA Vonage box creating some fake routes to your system ... so that if the box tries to contact gateway.com you could point that to asterisk and make it work using the current vonage setup. I would also recommend adding a rule to firewall that your ATA box cannot contact outside world .... only the asterisk server.

(I was more bothered by the lack of CallerID Name, but the 11-digit dialing was indeed annoying for local calls.)
The Vonage ATA-186 units shipped from Vonage before July arrived 'unlocked' either with no password, or a firmware version old enough to always allow #FACTRESET. As far as I know, the ones from Amazon.com arrived locked because no contract was yet in place.
Sometime around mid-July, Vonage pushed out v3.16 and password-locked *all* the ATAs.
If your box has been off-line since June, you should still be able to reset it with the process you described. If it has recently been connected, then it is not going to work.
You can find out by attempting the reset. If it says "PASSWD", then it won't let you change any config, reset the box, or upload new firmware without the password. If instead it asks you to confirm with "*", then you're golden -- you can reset it and then connect to http://<ip>/dev to reconfigure.
Vonage used to always charge the cancellation and leave you with the box. The option to return the box is new, and should address some of the 'green' concerns.
If anyone has a method for 'unlocking' password-locked unsubscribed Vonage ATA's, there are a lot of interested folks out there, myself included.
