Caution when initializing the Broadband Networking Gateway

When the CLEAR SETTING button on the Broadband Networking Gateway is pressed, all the parameters that have been set to the Broadband Networking Gateway reset to the default setting. If the KX-HGC200 is inserted and the WIRELESS indicator of the Broadband Networking Gateway is turning green at that time, all the parameters (Node Name, Channel Number, FEC, Network Name and Network ID) reset to default settings also.

If you want to preserve the parameters set to the KX-HGC200, first remove the KX-HGC200 from the Broadband Networking Gateway referring to “Removing the KX-HGC200 from the Broadband Networking Gateway” on p. 64, then initialize the Broadband Networking Gateway.
