    Best Place For Router on This Particular Desk


    Hi All

    Thinking of sometime getting seperate router once again versus Gateway device currently using, anyways not sure where to put it on the current desk at all

    Main desktop (gaming) this one will be ethernet wired

    wireless laptop in next room
    smart tv 4k
    and another wireless desktop in another room

    and various mobile devices

    *sorry photo turned around, it was straight up on my screen, and on phone when taken*

    Hello Patrick,

    If it's a wireless router, then I like to keep them up high unobstructed for better signal strength. Otherwise, anywhere it can get good airflow is fine.

    The shelf above the printer looks good if you like.
