My Netgear Nighthawk BE19000 Tri-Band WiFi Router (RS700S) arrived. I am upgrading from a Nighthawk AX6600. That router is moving from my living room to my guest bedroom in order to support my new Ubiquiti security camera system. The BE19000 is now in the living room.
I thought the setup was a breeze. I decided to mount it above my big screen tv.
I ordered the custom mount for the router from Netgear. Netgear customer service told me the router has 12 antennas. Then suggested to mount the router at around 6 ft. I would have mounted it at 7 ft, but the power adapter has a maximum reach of 6 ft.
Either height would be fine. I've tried a variety of heights and haven't really noticed much difference. the only time I usually see a difference is with things like appliances blocking the signals.
