Backing Up and Restoring the System
You can back up custom configuration settings for later restoration or restore from
a previous backup from the Administration > Backup/Restore Settings page.
When the router is working as configured, you can back up the configuration for
restoring later. During backup, your settings are saved as a file on your PC. You can
restore the router's settings from this file.
CAUTION During a restore operation, do not try to go online, turn off the router, shut down the
PC, or do anything else to the router until the operation is complete. This should
take about a minute. When the test light turns off, wait a few more seconds before
doing anything with the router.
To back up a configuration or restore a previously-saved configuration, select
Administration > Backup/Restore Settings.
To restore your saved settings from a backup file, click Browse, locate and select
the file, and click Restore. An alert page displays the status of the restore
operation. After the restore, the router restarts automatically with the restored
settings.
To save a copy of your router’s startup configuration, click Backup Startup
Configuration. The browser downloads the configuration file and prompts you to
save the file on the PC.
