Backups

Back up your router’s configuration so you can restore it after an update, factory reset, or hardware failure. Backups capture your settings — security profiles, Wi-Fi passwords, firewall rules, VPN configurations, SSH keys, and other customizations.

Creating a Backup

1. Navigate to System > Settings > Backup.

2. Click “Download Backup”.

3. A backup file will be downloaded to your computer.

Store the backup file in a safe location, such as a password manager or encrypted drive.

Tip

Create a backup before performing firmware updates. While the “Keep settings” path preserves settings, having a backup provides an extra safety net.

Restoring a Backup

1. Navigate to System > Settings > Backup.

2. Under “Restore Backup”, click “Choose File” and select the backup file from your computer.

3. Click “Restore”.

4. A confirmation dialog explains that all current settings will be overwritten and the router will reboot. Click “Restore & Reboot” to proceed.

The router will apply the configuration and restart.

Warning

Restoring a backup overwrites your current configuration entirely. Any changes made since the backup was created will be lost.
