Backup / Restore
These functions allow you to save and to create a backup of your router current settings to a file
on your PC, or to restore a previously saved setting. This is useful if you wish to experiment
with different settings, knowing that you have a backup in hand in case any mistakes occur. 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 you want to save the setting 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 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.
