The router has been designed such that it can either be placed on a

desktop or mounted onto a wall.

LED indicators denoting network status and activity, are situated on the

front edge of the router for easy visibility. Moreover, two plastic feet

support the router in a standing arrangement, thus minimising desktop

clutte r and ensuring better orga niz ation when setting up the hardware.
