> You probably want to look into a Linksys NSLU2 (slug)...<br><br>Aye. Only I want to be a wireless router as well - there's not enough<br>holes in the slug to plug in all those ethernet cables ;-) Besides,<br>I've already got a slug-equiv NAS box which works fine. I want to
<br>switch it off.<br><br>I think there's a gap in the market for an embedded 'one box' that<br>handles all your<br>broadband/LAN/wifi/voip/print-file-lamp-server/iTunes/uPNP/cellphone-backup<br>etc etc needs.
<br><br>Needn't be big or powerful - 32 or 64MB Broadcom/Arm/Mips should be<br>able to do it. Then we could even plug in a USB TV tuner and get it to<br>be a mini-backend.<br><br>Unless someone makes one already. My Maxtor NAS and router do all
<br>this, but that's two boxes with two plugs.<br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">

I've got a custom built machine that does pretty much everything except for the routing. I'd think with a couple ethernet cards and a switch you could pretty much accomplish everything you were looking for, but I don't think you are going to save much on power consumption.
<br><br>I'm sure somebody can jump in here and correct me if I'm wrong, but I've never seen such an all inclusive beast.</blockquote><div><br>I have the WRTSL54GS. It's linksys wifi router capable of running linux , but with a USB port. I use a USB hub and have some external USB cages, seems to work fine...
