Chapter 4: Configuration
Backup/Restore
These functions allow you to save and backup your router’s current settings to a file on
your PC, or to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment
with different settings, knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes.
It is advisable to backup your router’s settings before making any significant changes to
your router’s configuration.
Press Backup to select where on your local PC to save the settings file. You may also
change the name of the file when saving if you wish to keep multiple backups.
Press Browse to select a file from your PC to restore. You should only restore settings
files that have been generated by the Backup function, and that were created when using
the current version of the router’s firmware. Settings files saved to your PC should
not be manually edited in any way.
After selecting the settings file you wish to use, pressing Restore will load those settings
into the router.
