Backing Up Your Configuration

The configuration settings of the WNR834B 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
confguration file after you complete the configuration. In the event of router failure or corruption,
or a lost administrator password, you can easily recreate your configuration by restoring the
configuration file.
For instructions on saving and restoring your configuration file, see
File" on page 7-6.
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 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.
