Re: Do I need a full-fledged WAN router to run a home web server?

Thanks for your reply!
I've checked out OpenWRT, but it's too complicated for me. I'm looking for a 
more or less out-of-the-box solution that just works!

This three-in-one device probably runs some kind of Linux and can be made
to run yet some other kind of Linux, this other kind including a web
server.

Take a look at OpenWRT: https://www.openwrt.org/

OpenWRT is a distro that is specifically meant to run on computers
embedded in routers, switches and various all-in-one device like the one
you describe. Fully open-source, it is infinitely customizable - provided
you have the time and the love it takes.
