can I back up an iPhone wirelessly to an external drive plugged into our router?

I know I can back up to iCloud, but I was wondering whether I can plug in an external drive into our router's USB port and back up an iPhone (5S) to it wirelessly.

Thanks!

Aside from iCloud, you can backup to a computer with iTunes. Copying data to your network storage of an iPhone is a huge pain and does not work very well.
