Model: Archer AXE75  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.5 Build 20230922 rel.71211(5553)

I'd like to mount my router on the ceiling in my closet on the 2nd floor of my home. Mounting it this way will mean it's upside down.

 

Two questions:

1) Will the router work OK in this upside down position or does it need to be right-side down or wall-mounted?

2) Assuming an upside down ceiling mount is OK, what's the best orientation(s) for the antennas? I currently have 2 of them vertically (perpendicular to the base, or 90 degrees), two at ~60 degrees, and two at ~30 degrees.

 

We have 44 devices connected to our router, about half on the first floor and half on the second. The closet is roughly centrally located on the second floor.

 

thanks for your help!

I would be concerned about heat as it is designed to be upright. Make a small shelf for it.
