Backing Up Your Configuration

The configuration settings of the WNR834B are stored within the router in a configuration file. You can back up (save) this file and retrieve it later. NETGEAR recommends that you save your confguration file after you complete the configuration. In the event of router failure or corruption, or a lost administrator password, you can easily recreate your configuration by restoring the configuration file.

For instructions on saving and restoring your configuration file, see “Managing the Configuration File” on page 7-6.

Tip: Before saving your configuration file, change the administrator password to the default, password. Then change it again after you have saved the configuration file. If you save the file with a new password, and you later forget the new password, you will have to reset the router back to the factory defaults and log in using the default password of password. This means you will have to re-enter all the router configuration settings.
