Re: alternatives to the WL-520gU

In that case, what about a SheevaPlug:

Re: alternatives to the WL-520gU

That's an interesting question. I've had a quick look at what's available right now, but the 520gU is still widely available and one of the cheapest options. I think the problem is that the market for routers with a USB port is just not very big, so very few new models in that category are released,...

Re: who is using USB mass storage?

No, can't say I have any stability issues with my USB stick. This actually sounds like the flash memory on the stick is wearing out, which happens because flash bits can only be written to a limited number of times. You could try a different stick, as better models sometimes have a feature that spre...

Re: Maybe a Dumb Question?

If you follow the tutorial to the letter, I believe you will end up with an internet radio player only. However, the basic setup (OpenWrt on a wifi router with a USB sound-card and MPD) will play almost anything. What you want is definitely possible, as this is in fact pretty much how I have set thi...

Re: how to make a proxy configuration?

Apparently there is a set of proxy settings you can add to your mpd.conf file (although I have never tried these myself): http_proxy_host <hostname> Use to specify the proxy host used for HTTP connections. http_proxy_port <port> The port that the HTTP proxy host uses. http_proxy_user <username> If t...

Re: Ultra Noob Needs Help - MP3 folder

You must first mount the NFS share on a local directory. Teh command in your case would be something like: mount -t nfs 192.168.0.102:/music /remotemusic Where you have to make sure that the "/remotemusic" directory does exist on your wl-520. From that point on, the NFS share can be access...

Re: Help! Stuck at /etc/init.d/network restart

Try this: - In /etc/config/wireless, change the option "network" for the wifi-iface to "wlan" - In /etc/config/network, add a block identical to the "config interface lan", called "config interface wlan", and set the ifname option to wl0 Then restart the netwo...

Re: Making the Asus WL-520gU portable.

I think I know what you're trying to build, and you should probably ask this question on a DD-WRT specific forum. This one is dedicated to an OpenWRT-based internet radio/music player.

Re: AAC+

This depends on the package you use. MPD can play AAC(+) streams when it is compiled with support for an AAC-capable library (FAAD and/or FFMPEG, I believe). Run 'mpd --version' to see what your version of mpd supports.

Re: Automount NFS drive?

This is the script that automatically starts mpd when the router boots. It also mounts the usb drive and the NFS share that contains my music: /etc/init.d/mpd #!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common # Copyright (C) 2006-2008 OpenWrt.org START=99 STOP=99 NAME=mpd start() { # Delay so other boot scripts finish runni...
