ALL
The Mini 3G Broadband Router should be mounted only to a wall or wood
surface that is at least 1/2-inch plywood or its equivalent. To mount the
unit on a wall, always use its wall-mounting slots.
Figure 9: Wall Mounting
To mount on a wall, follow the instructions below.
1.
Mark the position of the two screw holes on the wall. For concrete or
brick walls, you will need to drill holes and insert wall plugs for the
screws.
2.
Insert two 20-mm M4 tap screws (not included) into the holes, leaving
about 2~3 mm (0.08~0.12 inches) clearance from the wall.
3.
Line up the two mounting points on the unit with the screws in the wall,
then slide the unit down onto the screws until it is in a secured position.

URFACE
To keep the Mini 3G Broadband Router from sliding on the surface, the unit
has four rubber feet on its base.
It is recommended to select an uncluttered area on a sturdy surface, such
as a desktop or table. The unit can also be protected by securing all
attached cables to a table leg or other nearby fixed structure.
