D-Link DSL-2640R User Manual
Save/Restore Settings
It is a good idea to store a back up copy of the configuration settings file on the hard drive of the system used to administer the Router. Use this menu to save a settings file, load
a settings file or restore the device to factory default settings.
To save the current configuration settings to your computer, click the
Save/Restore Settings button in the Maintenance directory to display the
System Settings menu. Click the Save button to Save Settings to Local Hard
Drive. You will be prompted to select a location on your computer to put the file.
To load a previously saved configuration file, click the Browse button and locate
the file on your computer. Click the Upload Settings button to Load Settings
From Local Hard Drive. Confirm that you want to load the file when prompted and
the process is completed automatically. The Router will reboot and begin operating
with the configuration settings that have just been loaded.
To reset the Router to its factory default settings, click the Restore Device button.
You will be prompted to confirm your decision to reset the Router. The Router will
reboot with the factory default settings including IP address (192.168.1.1) with
DHCP enabled and default administrator password (admin).
