Installing the router on a wall
CAUTION:
When mounting the router on a wall, position the router so the network interfaces face downwards, and
the sides with ventilation openings are perpendicular to the ground, as shown in
To mount the router on a wall:
1.
Mark the locations of the two mounting holes on the wall with a separation of 160 mm (6.30
in).
The holes must be level (on the same horizontal line.)
2.
Drill two holes in the wall.
3.
Following the marks, drill the two holes at least 22 mm (0.87 in) deep.
Verify that the holes are level.
4.
Insert an anchor into each hole so it is flush with the wall surface.
5.
Drive a screw into each anchor, keeping the screw heads protruding at least 1.5 mm (0.06 in)
from the wall.
6.
Hang the router on the screws.
