Using Network Monitoring Tools 6-9
May 2012
To restore your settings from a saved configuration file, enter the full path to the file on your
computer, or click Browse to browse to the file. When you have located it, click Restore to send
the file to the router. The router then reboots automatically.
Erasing the Configuration
Under some circumstances (for example, if you move the router to a different network or if you
have forgotten the password) you might want to erase the configuration and restore the factory
default settings. After an erase, the router’s username is admin, the password is password, the
LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1 (or www.routerlogin.net), and the router’s DHCP server is
enabled.
To erase the configuration, click the Erase button in the Settings Backup screen.
To restore the factory default configuration settings when you do not know the login password or
IP address, you must use the restore factory settings button on the rear panel of the router (see
“Restoring the Default Configuration and Password” on page 7-11).
Updating the Router Firmware
The firmware of the N300R router is stored in flash memory, and can be updated as On Networks
releases new firmware. You can update your firmware by logging into the router and using one of
these procedures:
• Enable the Check for Updated Firmware Upon Log-in check box. Each time you log in to
the router, it will automatically detect a new version of the firmware and then install it. This
check box is enabled in the router’s default state. See “Logging In To Your WiFi Router” on
page 1-1.
• Use the Check button in the Router Upgrade screen. Instead of having the router check for
new firmware every time you log in, you can use Router Upgrade, under Maintenance in the
main menu. See “Checking for New Firmware in the Router Upgrade Screen.”
Warning: Do not interrupt the reboot process.
