Hardware setup includes:
!
Antenna Installation: connecting the antenna to the unit.
!
Physical Installation: where you physically place your unit.

of the unit, the threaded knob.
2
Screw the antenna connector clockwise on to the threaded knob
until firmly seated.

Wall Mount Installation
If you mount the router on the wall, you must:
!
Locate the unit as specified by the local or national codes
governing residential or business communications services.
!
Follow all local standards for installing a network interface
unit/network interface device (NIU/NID).
If possible, mount the router to concrete, masonry, a wooden stud, or
other very solid wall material. Use anchors if necessary; for example
if you must mount the unit on drywall.
To mount your router on the wall:
1
Print the Wall Mounting Template:
5.1”
[129.5mm]
The illustration is drawn at a one-to-one scale, which means that
when printed, it provides the exact dimensions required to mount
the unit.
