Description
A brief history: Originally, I just wanted to design a simple stand for my FRITZ.Box router to improve the Wi-Fi signal and optimise cooling. It actually worked – but then the project escalated somewhat. In the end, it turned into an over-engineered stand with an industrial design.
I wanted to share the holder anyway, now it has become a bit more elaborate, but it also looks much better – I hope you share my opinion.
I used this screw set* for this model.
Customisable holderSince the project has already gotten a bit out of hand, I have also uploaded two customizable versions of the mount. One version is for the ventilation slots: this allows you to individually adjust the spacing between the slots as well as the material thickness.
The second mount is for the screw holes on the back: here, you can adjust the spacing between the holes and several other parameters.
Simply click "Customize" at the top, select a mount, and modify it to your liking; you can then download it directly as a 3MF or STL file.
Standard dimensions of the holder The bracket should fit most current models – I use a 6660 and 7530.
Standard dimensions for the screw hole mount The mount is designed for model 7530 and identical models.

Finally, there are some brief assembly instructions that show you the correct order for setting up the Fritzbox stand – so that assembly isn't too fiddly.
When assembling, pay attention to the spacers. There are two different types: one for the screw side and one for the nuts with a matching hexagonal recess.
I printed the holes in the main arm and feet closed, which has the advantage of eliminating the need for supports and also producing a better print result. Since it is only a thin layer, you can easily cut the hole open with a sharp knife or use a suitable drill bit.
When you start assembly, it is best to begin with the base, as this will make it easier to assemble the remaining parts. Use the two M3 x 12 screws for this.
Then screw the bracket onto the main arm. Use two M3 x 16 screws for this.
If you use the hanging solution, you also screw it in using two M3 x 16 screws.
Then screw the stand to the main arm. Use two M3 x 16 screws for this as well.
You will need to repeat the assembly process twice, once for the left and once for the right stand for the Fritzbox. - Done
It's quite a niche model, but I'm looking forward to seeing the first prints and your feedback with pictures – especially which colour combinations you use.
