9.5 Backing up and Restoring Configuration
Settings
Tools > System
You can back up the router‘s custom configuration settings to restore them to a
different device or the same router after some other changes. During backup, your
settings are saved as a file on your host. You can restore the router's saved settings
from this file as well. This page will also allow you revert to factory default settings
or execute a soft reboot of the router.

IMPORTANT! 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 will take approximately 1 minute. Once the LEDs are turned off,
wait a few more seconds before doing anything with the router.
For backing up configuration or restoring a previously saved configuration, please
follow the steps below:
1.
To save a copy of your current settings, click the Backup button in the Save Current
Settings option. The browser initiates an export of the configuration file and prompts to
save the file on your host.
