Billion 800VGT Router

Backup / Restore

These functions allow you to save and backup your router’s current settings to a file on your Computer, or to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes. It is advisable to backup your router’s settings before making any significant changes to your router’s configuration, as well as before performing a firmware upgrade.

Press Backup to select where on your local computer to save the settings file. You may also change the name of the file when saving if you wish to keep multiple backups.

Press Browse to select a file from your computer to restore. You should only restore settings files that have been generated by the Backup function, and that were created when using the current version of the router’s firmware. Settings files saved to your computer should not be manually edited in any

way.

After selecting the settings file you wish to use, pressing Restore will load those settings into the router.

Restart Router

Click Restart with option Current Settings to reboot your router (and restore your last saved configuration).

If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a firmware upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default Settings to reset to factory default settings.

You may also reset your router to factory settings by holding the small RESET pinhole button on the back of your router in for more than 6 seconds whilst the router is turned on, and then power cycling your router.
