Ac87u: what screws to ceiling or wall mount?

[professordave]

hello,

What kind of screws should be used to ceiling mount an ac87u?

An amazon link to the correct kind of screws would be great!

Thanks in advance!

Rofl. I'm in the same quandary. Gave up looking for screws and Decided to try command hooks. I'll let you know how it works.

Hmm, not sure what command hooks are, but if they are "hooks" I am assuming this would not work for ceiling mounting, it would only work for wall mounting?

Wouldn't be appropriate for ceiling mounting.

If textured just use some drywall screws. Either available at your local Lowes / Menards or other hardware store.

I have the sticky strips holding a 24 port switch to a section of panelling & use the same for my Unifi Access Points

I wouldn't just only use Velcro. Over time when the adhesive gets older it might loosen and the router fall down..

You could also glue a small piece of wood to the ceiling with component glue, then screw the router under it with wood screws.
