Restoring factory default settings
Using this option will restore all of the settings in the router to the factory (default) settings.
It is recommended that you back up your settings before you restore all of the defaults.
To restore factory default settings:
1 Under the Utilities heading on the left menu, click Restore Defaults. The following
warning will appear.
2 Click OK. The following message appears.
3 Click OK. Restoring the defaults includes restarting the router. Restarting the router
can take up to 25 seconds. It is important not to turn off the power to the router during
the restart.
A 25-second countdown will appear on the screen. When the countdown reaches zero,
the router will be restarted. The router's home page should appear automatically. If
not, type in the router's address (default = 192.168.2.1) into the navigation bar of
your browser.
Saving a current configuration

allow you to restore it later if your settings are lost or changed. It is recommended that you
back up your current configuration before performing a firmware update.
To save a current configuration:

Save/Backup Settings page opens.
2 Click Save. The File Download window opens.
