[The Netherlands]How to mount WAX214 and WAX620 without supplied materials on a ceiling?

I would like to buy mounting materials for a WAX214 and a few WAX620, because I have none.

I found a product called the Ventev Large Wi-Fi AP Cover - Clear, W128098062, but that's not easily procured and/or expensive (read: more expensive than the device/mount) and overkill. I just want something that makes sure it keeps hanging to the ceiling.

 

I saw some people with 3D-printers making their own, but in a more sane world, there would just be a button on a webshop saying "people who bought this product, might also be interested in these mounting systems". 

 

In short, please reply with URLs to preferably webshops in The Netherlands or shipping to The Netherlands in the EU for reasonable options. That is, something actionable.   

  • Customer service needs a new product for them to be willing to help, but the mounting is just a few screws depending on the mounting surface (e.g. concrete wall will require plugs, etc.).

      Any adhesive also needs a way to easily remove it (if you know how), which that adhesive doesn't offer.

    Challenge Netgear Customer Service (by phone, or  https://www.netgear.com/support/contact.aspx ). Specify exact model information, as there are two versions of the WAX214 models in the field.

     

    Worst case? Not so lovely: A piece of wood or Acrylic and two screws might do the job.
