In the constant search for reducing the number of boxes and cables, I wondered whether it was possible to run MinimServer on a router - perhaps one running OpenWRT? In that scenario I would plug in my USB drive with all my music.

My router is pretty old but even so has USB sockets and a UPnP server - which I never used, and I could not go without MinimServer now. I have always assumed that the router would not be capable of handling a large music library...

Anyone had any experience of using it on a router, or any comments on whether it would be feasible?

thanks

Which router do you have? Are you comfortable using Linux commands?
