4.1 Configuration Tools

The Configuration Tools screen allows you to save (Backup) the router’s current configuration setting. Saving the configuration settings provides an added protection and convenience should problems occur with the router and you have to reset to factory default. When you save the configuration setting (Backup) you can re-load the saved configuration into the router through the Restore selection. If extreme problems occur you can use the Restore to Factory Defaults selection, this will set all configurations to its original default settings (e.g. when you first purchased the router).

Parameters	Description
Configuration Tools	Use the "Backup" tool to save the Broadband router current
	configuration to a file named "config.bin" on your PC. You can
	then use the "Restore" tool to restore the saved configuration to
	the Broadband router. Alternatively, you can use the "Restore to
	Factory Defaults" tool to force the Broadband router to perform
	a power reset and restore the original factory settings.

You can assign priority for each type of application and reserve bandwidth for it. The packets of applications with higher priority will always go first. Lower priority applications will get bandwidth after higher priority applications get enough bandwidth. This can let you have a better experience in using critical real time services like Internet phone, video conference …etc. All the applications not specified by you are classified as rule name “Others”. The rule with smaller priority number has higher priority the rule with larger priority number has lower priority. You can adjust the priority of the rules by moving them up or down Enable/Disable QoS Add a QoS rule into the table rule and click “Move Down” to make its priority lower QoS RuleThe name of this rule Select the WAN ports that the packets matchingSource Address BandwidthSource MAC Address Source IP AddressApply ResetDefault Domain Name Server DNS addressSecondary DNS Address optional Password/Key Enable/DisableProvider DynDNSLAN IP 2.3 LANLease Time IP Address PoolDomain Name 192.168.2.100 to End IP 192.168.2.199 .
