Senior needs help finding plug adapter

[oldpops]

I'm a disabled senior with eyesight that isn't so good anymore. I'm also not good at scouring the internet for things I need, so I thought I would ask here: As you will see in the attached picture, I have a Wi-Fi satellite plug that sticks out from the wall (when plugged in)and I keep bumping it and knocking it out. I am trying to find an adapter that I can plug into the outlet, that changes the plug socket direction 90 degree's. I don't want to add another power strip or anything like that (I've tripped over those a LOT in the past).

Just want to find an adapter I can plug into the socket, that changes to plug (where the Wi-Fi plug, from sticking straight out - to one the has the WIFI satellite adapter plug going up and down, so it doesn't stick out from the wall.

If you can imagine the current plug, as seen in the picture, as currently going in/out (east/west), then I need an adapter that will allow me to plug the WIFI plug up and down (North/South)

Do they make such a thing? Does anyone know of any links?

Thanks in advance to all who help!

Take a look at this Amazon search and see if it has something.

Thats what he has.

Why cant you remove that box and plug it directly into the wall?

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

If you're set on keeping the 6 way box, this should get you the result you want.

Also on Amazon. The Leviton adapter looks like it's a little smaller.

This is great! Only have to buy one this way!

I got the flat box (from HF) because I tend to knock out any plug that is sticking out of the wall into the room (with my cane), but t even with my the HF flat box/6 outlet unit, the WIFI satellite plug is configured to stick out into the room. So unless I change the direction of the (plug) prong slots, I'm going to have the same problem. A few suggestions given here are just the thing I need! Thanks everybody!

Here is something else that I use that really helps with turning things on and off.
You can do individual on/off or all on/off.

Remote control outlets.
