The popular UK BT Home Hub 5 \ Plusnet Hub One router (they are identical apart from colour) has small feet on the bottom, but no way to wall mount it with screws.

Given that the height of a wireless router significantly affects the WiFi reception I decided to design one.

This bracket has two slots that the original feet of the router slide into (friction fit) and then two 3mm holes for screws above that. The bracket also gives enough space for the power, ethernet and phone cable to come out behind the unit and be routed down the wall, preferably in self adhesive trunking for neatness (eg. https://www.toolstation.com/mini-trunking-3m/p28509 )

Note: STL dimensions are in metres, you may need to downscale by 1000 depending on your slicer.

Notes:

This is a functional item so plenty of perimeters and minimum infill of 30% for strength. I printed in PLA+ but I'm sure other similar materials would work fine.
