You do mean Access, not Atlas...correct?

The Access is only intended to sit on a flat surface. I'm not seeing any way to mount it to a wall other than building a small shelf to set it on.

I just assumed elena meant Atlas, since I've never heard of anyone thinking you could put Access on a wall. You could just put up a shelf and sit the access on it if you want it high up. LOL

I remember someone else here asking this question.  I'm guessing the reasoning was that they wanted wanted to mount the Access easily in their network closet.  They were also interested in powering the Access over ethernet.

Seems like it wouldn't be too hard to for Acurite (or someone with a 3D printer) to come up with a wall mounting bracket for the Access.  Basically it would just be a glorified shelf with some cable management.

POE would certainly be handy, too, but I'm not sure how common it is in home networks.

If it is the Access, one of the adjustable arm mounts for webcams will work.  Kinda weird though methinks.

I don't own an Access to check, but would assume that something like this would fit around the silver ring at the very bottom:

Another option is to do what I did with my oval-shaped WeatherFlow Hub to hang it on the wall.  I removed the internal guts, and transplanted them into a plastic electronics "project box" with mounting tabs on it.....

Hi,  No I did not mean Atlas, I meant Access.  I need to mount the access to the wall, because my router is installed on the wall in one of the bedrooms. 

Thank you
