Hi all,
Is it possible to backup an Actiontec Ml424WR Router settings? If I blow out the router settings somehow I would like to be able to restore the settings to the router than to try to remember how I configured the router in the first place.
Thanks,
Jerry

Yes. Just log into the router, then:
Advanced ==> Yes ==> Configuration File ==> Save Configuration File

One additional note.
If you have to change the router, the backup probably will not work with a different hardware or firmware revision. But yes Justin has it right on the money. It is always good to have a backup of your existing configuration. I have not or Verizon has never messed with my configuration.
I never break anything.
With the older versions the backup used to be stored in a text format. You could do some cool things. The new routers store the backup in a binary smaller format. Probably to prevent the cool things, and save memory space that is at a premium.
