Placement Tips
• Do not place anything on top of the router. It could be damaged by
excessive weight.
• Do not obstruct heat dissipation holes on the sides of the router.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight or other heat source. Keep area around
router adequately ventilated.
• Place the router on a flat surface.
Wall Mounting Tips
The router has two wall-mount slots on its bottom panel. When mounting the
router on the wall, please ensure that the heat dissipation holes are facing
sideways as shown in the following picture for safety reasons. Linksys is not
