Plug External Hard Drive to Wireless Router

I was wondering if I could simply plug exernal hard drive to my wireless router to share files in my home netowrk.

I know I could plug the external hard drive to my Mac to share files, but I would just rather leave it clean on my desk cuz it is a great feeling not seeing the external drive hanging in front of the computer

Does anyone know if that is possible? Is there a online tutorial that will teach me how to do it?

 

I have a Belkin MIMO Wireless
