Why do I need to back up my router configuration? As with any valuable 

data, you should back up your router configuration. Your router might contain 

many customized settings. Those settings would be lost if you reset your router 

to its factory defaults, and you would need to re-enter all of them manually. If 

you back up your router configuration, restoring settings is easy.

You can only back up the router configuration locally (not 

remotely).

To back up your router configuration:
1.  Log into Cisco Connect Cloud. (See “How to configure your router” on 

page 11.

2.  Under Router Settings, click Troubleshooting. 
3.  Click the Diagnostics tab.

4.  Under Router configuration, click Backup. You are prompted to save the 

file.

5.  Specify a file location, then click Save.

For save multiple backup files, include the backup date in the 

filename as you save.

To restore your router configuration:
1.  Log into Cisco Connect Cloud. (See “How to configure your router” on 

page 11.

2.  Under Router Settings, click Troubleshooting. 
3.  Click the Diagnostics tab.
4.  Under  Router  configuration,  click  Restore.  The  Restore  Router 

Configuration dialog box opens.

5.  Click Choose File to navigate to the location of your configuration file, 

then select the file and click Open. 

6.  To restore the configuration, click Start to Restore.
