NOTE
Linksys is not responsible for damages incurred by unsecured wall-
mounting hardware.
Follow these instructions:
1. Determine where you want to mount the router. Make sure that the wall
you use is smooth, flat, dry, and sturdy. Also make sure the location is
within reach of an electrical outlet.
2. Drill two holes into the wall. Make sure the holes are 82 mm apart.
3. Insert a screw into each hole and leave 3 mm of its head exposed.
4. Position the router so the wall-mount slots line up with the two screws.
5. Place the wall-mount slots over the screws and slide the router down
until the screws fit snugly into the wall-mount slots.
