How to back up and restore your router configuration
As with any valuable data, you should back up your router configuration. Your router might contain many customized settings. Those settings would be lost if you reset your router to
its factory defaults, and you would need to re-enter all of them manually. If you back up your router configuration, restoring settings is easy.
NOTE
You can only back up the router configuration locally (not remotely).
To back up your router configuration, do the following:
Log in to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See "How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi" on page 4.)
Under Router Settings, click Troubleshooting.
Click the Diagnostics tab.
Under Router configuration, click Backup. You are prompted to save the file.
Specify a file location, then click Save.
TIP
For save multiple backup files, include the backup date in the filename
as you save.
