<![CDATA[SG2100 MAX 1 standoff is missing]]>Hello I wanted to know if anyone knows how I can get a replacement standoff for the WiFi card?

My 2100 only had one standoff when I installed the Compex mini pcie card, and the card should use that as a ground.

How can I get the right one? It should have came with two

The firewall is fine it just got bumped is all but it was enough vibration to move the card some how. That card has had tons of errors on it for years. I am going to replace it also when I fix the standoff

The side that mounts to the pub uses a nut it does not screw down that is a hard one to find

Like this?

Be sure to measure before you order. 🤠

If you are really determined to have one, you'll probably want to buy a kit anyway, since getting a single standoff mount will cost you almost as much as a small kit.

FWIW, just based on looking at the picture my money would be on something like an M2x5+3. Measure and let me know if I'm right. 😊

Usually it can be grounded on both sides but doesn't have to be.

Do you know the size, to my understanding the card grounds on both sides with that standoff, yes the card is not a Netgate product.

You only need one for almost any card. Certainly any card that fits in the 2100.
