How Do I Mount the Cable Modem on the Wall?
How Do I Mount the Cable Modem on the Wall?
Before You Begin
Before you begin, choose an appropriate mounting place. The wall can be made of
cement, wood, or drywall. The mounting location should be free of obstructions on
all sides, and the cables should be able to easily reach the cable modem without
strain. Leave sufficient clearance between the bottom of the cable modem, and any
flooring or shelving underneath, to allow access to cabling. In addition, leave
enough slack in all cables so that the cable modem can be removed for any required
maintenance without disconnecting the cables. Also, verify that you have the
following items:
Two wall anchors for #8 x 1-inch screws
Two #8 x 1-inch pan head sheet metal screws
Drill with a 3/16-in. wood or masonry bit
