Managing the Configuration File
The configuration settings of the WNDR3400 router are stored within the router in a configuration
file. You can back up (save) this file to your computer, restore it, or reset it to the factory default
settings. From the main menu, under Maintenance, select
Backup Settings
.
The following sections describe the available options.
Backing Up and Restoring the Configuration
The Restore and Backup options in the Backup Settings screen let you save and retrieve a file
containing your router’s configuration settings.
Note:
If the router is rebooted, the table data is lost until the router rediscovers the
devices.

To save your settings, click
Back Up
. Your browser extracts the configuration file from the router
and prompts you for a location on your computer to store the file. You can give the file a
meaningful name at this time, such as
comcast.cfg.
To restore your settings from a saved configuration file, enter the full path to the file on your
computer, or click
Browse
to browse to the file. When you have located it, click
Restore
to send
the file to the router. The router then reboots automatically.
Erasing the Configuration
Under some circumstances (for example, if you move the router to a different network or if you
have forgotten the password), you might want to erase the configuration and restore the factory
default settings. After an erase, the router’s user name is
admin
, the password is
password
, the
LAN IP address is
192.168.1.1
(or
www.routerlogin.net
), and its DHCP server is enabled.
•
To erase the configuration, click the
Erase
button in the Backup Settings screen.
•
To restore the factory default configuration settings when you do not know the login password
or IP address, you must use the restore factory settings button on the bottom of the router (see
“Restoring the Default Configuration and Password” on page 8-14
).
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 forget the password, you will need to reset the configuration to factory
defaults.
Warning:
Do not interrupt the reboot process.

is 8080, which is a common alternate for HTTP.

Note:
When accessing your router from the Internet, type your router’s WAN IP address
into your browser’s address or location field, followed by a colon (:) and the
custom port number. For example, if your external address is 134.177.0.123 and
