Nighthawk X8 R8500 Rattle - How to Open Box

My router is working fine, but when I picked it up and moved it I noticed a rattle. I think something small may have fallen into the box. I found 2  obvious hex screws on the bottom, but I'm sure I must be something else to open the box. I'd appreciate any help.

  • There are more screws on the feet. 

    Remove the rubber feet in each corner and you'll see more screws.
