Orbi RBK853 Mounting Hole Size

I have the RBK853 and the router and two satellites each have two mounting holes underneath the base. Does anyone know the thread size?  I don't need to buy the entire wall mounting kit, I just need the thread size.

 

Thanks for your help!

  • I reached out to a wall mount manufacturer and they said the screw is an M4 x 12mm

    I hope this helps other people looking for this information.

  • Does anyone have any thoughts?  I actually opened a ticket with Support.  Their response was that they needed to contact the appropriate department and would get back to me in 24-48 hours.  So far, as a new Netgear customer I have found this community so much more knowledgeable and efficient than Netgear support.

     

    Back to my question though...

    I realize there are wall mount kits that include the Thumb (knurled) screw but I only need the thread size so I can mount it on an existing bracket.  Has anyone done this?

        Another Update...

        I just received a response from Netgear Support after waiting a few days and they said the thread size is:

        M4x07Px10MM

        I hope these two options helps others.
