Back Up Base Station Settings - Microsoft MN-500 User Manual

You should restore the original factory default settings only under
the following circumstances:
• You are experiencing serious problems with your base station,
and resetting the base station does not fix the problem.
• You cannot remember your base station password.
If you cannot remember your base station password, you will not
be able to open the Base Station Management Tool. In this
situation, you must restore the factory default settings from the
base station, and then use the default password admin to log on
to the Base Station Management Tool.
To restore factory default settings
1. Open the Base Station Management Tool, and then click
Management.
2. On the Management menu, click Back Up and Restore.
3. Under Restore Factory Default Settings, click Restore Factory
Default Settings. While the original factory default settings are
being restored, the power light on the base station blinks and
then turns orange. When the light is solid green, the settings
have been restored.
If you want to open the Base Station Management Tool after the
settings are restored, type admin as the password on the Logon
page. Do not try to log on to the base station until the settings are
restored and the base station power light is solid green.
After you restore the factory default settings, you should navigate
to each page of the Base Station Management Tool and
reestablish the network settings you need, or restore the base
station settings by using a backup file. For information about
creating a backup file of your settings, see the following section.
Be sure to establish your unique base station password as soon as
possible after restoring the factory default settings to prevent
unauthorized users from logging on. For information about
changing the base station password, see "Change the Base Station
Password" in this chapter.

Back Up Base Station Settings

You can create a backup file of all your base station settings from
the Base Station Management Tool. The backup file can include
settings that you established when you completed the Setup
Wizard and the settings that you modified from the Base Station
Management Tool.
It is a good idea to create a backup file after you have the base
station set up and operating normally. If for some reason the base
station malfunctions, you can restore the factory default settings to
the base station, and then use the backup file to reconfigure your
base station and resume normal operations.
