Details on Qisda’s multimedia router have been ‘leaked’ by the American Federal Communications Commission as the device was getting its classification permits to be released. Qisda’s upcoming router (unnamed, so far) will have a host of multimedia features, like watching video and playing music on your wireless router, without a computer.

The Qisda mystery router will come equipped with speakers and a touchscreen. Users will be able to access media stored on it’s internal RAM memory, but unfortunately, not on the local network. You’ll also be able to watch YouTube videos, and tune into Internet radio channels, or old fashioned FM radio if you want.

As for the wireless routing end of business, the Qisda mystery router is capable of 802.11n and will come with one Ethernet output port. The cherry on top is the mystery router’s ability to double as a radio alarm clock. No pricing or release date info came out of the FCC’s report, unfortunately, but at the right (low) price point this gadget could be a nice gift idea, but with just one ethernet port, don’t expect this thing to replace your Linksys WRT54G hub anytime soon.
