How to turn switch into hub in embedded linux(netgear dg834g)?



Netgear dg834g is an adsl router with 4-port-switch bridged with wi-fi
interface. I want to record my VOIP conversations by sniffing the traffic
to/from ATA connected to the switch. I think of connecting my laptop to
the switch and running erhereal on it to acheave this. How can I degrade
switch into hub? I read that I could overflow arp tables for the switch
to failover to hub(repeater) mode. Is there any more gracefull way from
within router itself? The box is running linux 2.4.17(ifconfig, brctl
commands available, and access to /proc).
