Netgear Nighthawk X6 R8000 Mounts

thingiverse

After buying a new router, I discovered that it wasn't designed to be mounted on a wall. It's unclear why Netgear chose to place the mounting holes in such a way that the router must be set up upside down. Netgear didn't sacrifice aesthetics, so the orange holder shown in picture 1 is used to determine the optimal angles. Picture 2 shows the router with all four black holders installed. The holders come in four versions: side, bottom, and two different widths - 15mm and 25mm. Personally, I prefer the 25mm version, and they must be printed in black, of course. The side brackets are spaced 235mm apart, the bottom bracket is spaced 115mm apart, and the side holder is 95mm below it. See picture 3 for details. The holders are secured with 3.0 mm countersunk screws.
