Backing Up Your Configuration

The configuration settings of the WNDR3300 router are stored within the router in a configuration
file. You can back up (save) this file and retrieve it later. NETGEAR recommends that you save
your configuration file after you complete the configuration. If the router fails or becomes
corrupted, or an administrator password is lost, you can easily re-create your configuration by
restoring the configuration file.
For instructions on saving and restoring your configuration file, see
File" on page 6-7.
Tip: Before saving your configuration file, change the administrator password to the
default, password. Then change it again after you have saved the configuration file.
If you save the file with a new password, and then you later forget the new
password, you will have to reset the router back to the factory defaults and log in
using the default password of password. This means you will have to re-enter all the
router configuration settings.
