Does your WRT have USB ports? The usb-audio driver has been ported to
OpenWRT, so you could use a USB audio interface attached directly to
the WRT.

I haven't tried this myself yet, but sooner or later I think I will.
My "router" already holds my entire music collection on a USB harddisk
(exported via NFS and samba), so this would seem to be the next
logical step :)
