NodeJS on WLAN Router (DD-WRT, OpenWRT, FreeWRT)?

[tiefenb]

Hello,

Would it be possible, to install NodeJS on a router?

Maybe on a http://www.dd-wrt.com, https://openwrt.org, http://www.freewrt.org
or one of these systems: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_router_or_firewall_distributions

That is really depended on the OS of your router.

Look at the architecture of the router and the memory constraints.  On most architectures a node process starts around 10mb of ram.  I know v8 builds on linux on i686, x64, and most arm variants.  There is some mips support as well.

Depending on what you're trying to do, raw libuv with C may be better.  It has fewer requirements and uses a lot less memory.  The API is somewhat close to node's since it provides most of nodes system primitives.  Also I made lua bindings for libuv (luvit.io) that expose a node-like API.  The lua vm is slimmer than v8, but still much more bloated than just using C.
