CONFIGURATION

The Bright Box router is configured for EE Broadband out of the box, however you may wish
to make changes to the router settings at any time. The Configuration page allows you to
make a backup of your router's settings, and also restore those settings at a later time.
This is particularly useful if you've made a number of advanced settings changes (such as
creating port forwarding for online gaming) and need to return to your router to factory
default settings. You can factory reset the router and then re-apply the custom configuration
changes by restoring from the configuration file.
To access the Configuration page:
1. Login to the router's admin pages.
2. Click on the Advanced Set-Up tab and click Accept on the 'Please proceed with
caution' page.
