screen.

Backing Up Your Configuration

The configuration settings of the Wireless-G Router 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 configuration file after you complete the configuration. If the router fails or becomes

corrupted, or an administrator password is lost, you can easily re-create your configuration by

restoring the configuration file.

For instructions on saving and restoring your configuration file, see “Managing the Configuration

File” on page 6-6.

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 then 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.
