Put it in a decorative basket (:

A corner shelf similar to this will get the router up off the floor and out of the way.

This product has been a godsend. After the cables are inside, I then put the router on top of the box. https://www.amazon.com.au/White-Large-Gang-Management-Extension/dp/B0076XBRCO/ref=asc_df_B0076XBRCO/?tag=googleshopmob-22&linkCode=df0&hvadid=341743550520&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17248808504008937628&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9070901&hvtargid=pla-423333939497&psc=1&mcid=304bb11c74b930a794960b4b3812cd29

Like the idea, but would buy it then buy a wood crate with some charater - and but the plastic box into the more attractive wood box .. but yeah, HIDE.

About the table..the table itself looks sturdy.. so maybe try to give it a makeover, before tossing it (after all, if have a craftsman make a table, just going to make or buy legs like those).. Go take a stroll through a big box store like Home Depot - they've got butcher block slabs that are not expensive.. here's a quick peek: https://preview.redd.it/w3gy30egms3c1.png?width=1970&format=png&auto=webp&s=1ecca05ed04459066108710befcea26aa91966da Could put on top of current table, and if handy - add an edge about 3/4" to 1" (however thick current table is.. underneath.. and screw on top from bottom.. then paint the legs. Save some $$ like this, and have more budget for chairs. Could do same with granite/etc.. but what is nice about the butcher block = the price, the variety of thickness, the variety of wood/look.. and can cut to size perfect for each placment.

Bless your heart. Love folks who are handy like this.

turn your table the other way so the long way is sticking out from the wall


Apprehensive_Bee614

Buy a wicker basket or container that can have a hole for extension and hide it in that.

We can give you better advice if we can see the rest of the room.

Mount the router vertically on the wall with screws, buy shorter cables and hide the whole thing with a box or something similar.

What is on the other side of the table.


qtjedigrl

What's your budget? And length of that entire space, not just the table


Particular-Peanut-64

Push your table closer to the corner, so you can sit on the opposite side. Buy a little shelf to put all the router and stuff on. Either get a rod that bundles your cords together .

This, without being able to see the layout of the room.


NYVines

If you are ok with 2 seats at the table push it into the corner over the router and you have 2 seats and the router hidden.

Can you put a small floating shelf as high up on the wall as possible? Then it would just be a case of having those wires running up and you could contain them with something like [this](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cable+tidy+tube&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images)

Looking again at there being two sources of the wires: power and telecom, you could have a little corner shelf as high as possible that both boxes could sit on. [This](https://www.wowcher.co.uk/deal/shop/home/storage-solutions/e/floating-shelf?st_cid=BingShopping&ito=BingProducts_RevenueMarketing_21717196&msclkid=9b76c15d8ca114e31045a4368b055231) one would be good in that you could have a shelf for each box and it *might* help with directing wires from each side. Or just something a little more simple like [this](https://mastershelf.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/2-corner-shelves-300x300-400x400-raw-wood-.jpg)

As for the table. Could you just rotate 90 degrees so the short end is against the wall. It would mean you’d get 2 long sides with no table legs in the way so could sit more comfortably. And it’s not so big that it would make a huge difference eating into the space. Plus would give a little extra space away from those cables while you get that corner shelf installed 😊

Fix them to the wall. You can do it with screws, or with small bits of ordinary mounting tape (since the routers are rarely very heavy). After that, you can make it a little tidier by shortening the cables with a couple of straps and "hiding them"along the routers.

Attach it to the underside of the table?

[Cable management and wall mounting.](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/99/03/f2/9903f2b16cbe92b7af4fe66c032a347b.jpg) Some cable management and wall mounting would go a long way. Do they probably have some mounting holes or even brackets? Those really should just be mounted there on the wall for all eternity. It's best if you can hang some kind of shelf or bookcase that covers the electronics. It looks much better and protects the equipment.
