NETGEAR N300 Wireless Router with External Antennas WNR1500 User Manual
Restore
1. Enter the full path to the file on your network, or click the Browse button to find the file.
2. When you have located the .cfg file, click the Restore button to upload the file to the router.
Upon completion, the router reboots.
WARNING!
Do not interrupt the reboot process.
Erase
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.
Click the Erase button to reset the router to its factory default settings. Alternately, press the
Wireless On/Off and WPS buttons on the side panel of the router simultaneously for 6
seconds.
Erase sets the user name to admin, the password to password, the LAN IP address to
192.168.1.1, and enables the router’s DHCP.
To restore the factory default configuration settings when you do not know the login password
or IP address, use the restore factory settings button on the bottom of the router (see
Restore
the Default Configuration and Password on page 94).
