Backing Up and Restoring your Configuration

Backing Up

Your Buffalo Router/Repeater KIT comes preconfi gured for WDS (Wireless Distribution System) which provides the repeating functionality and extended range for your wireless network. Should these

preconfi gured values be lost, so will the repeating functionality. Buffalo Technology highly recommends that you backup confi guration settings on both the Router and Repeater using the following method:

Ensure your computer is connected to the device you are backing up. This can be a wired or wireless connection.

If you cannot access the device wirelessly for any reason, a direct wired connection will be required.

NOTE: See further information in this manual for details of connecting your computer to your router or repeater.

Open your Web Browser and type in the IP address for the appropriate device in the address bar (See Device Pre- Confi guration Settings at the end of this setup guide for the preconfi gured IP address).

Hit “go” or “return”
