Back Up and Manage Extender Settings

The Backup and Restore options in the Backup Settings screen let you save and retrieve a file containing your extender’s configuration settings.

Once you have your extender working correctly, back up the information to have it available if something goes wrong. When you back up the settings, they are saved as a file on your computer. You can restore the device’s settings from this file.

To manage extender settings:

1.Select Maintenance > Backup Settings. The following screen displays.

2.Do one of the following:

To back up your settings, click the Backup button.

Your browser extracts the configuration file from the extender.

If you do not have your browser set up to save downloaded files automatically, locate where you want to save the file. You can give the file a meaningful name at this time, such as internet_adapter.cfg.

To restore your settings, select the previously saved backup file and click the Restore button.

A screen displays that lets you know the device has been successfully restored to the previous settings. The extender restarts. This procedure takes about one minute.

CAUTION:

Do not try to go online, turn off the extender, shut down the computer, or do anything else to the extender until it finishes restarting!

To erase the settings, click the Erase button.
