Abstract: Embodiments include a method for downloading data (e.g., audio files, video files, etc.) to a router. In some embodiments, the method includes receiving, via a web server residing in the router, information identifying data to be downloaded over a network from a remote device. The method can also include initiating operations for downloading the data from the remote device. The method can also include receiving, in the router, data packets from the network, where some of the data packets include portions of the data. The method can also include identifying those data packets that include data portions, and extracting the data portions. The method can also include combining the data portions to form a data file, and storing the data file in the router.
