Firmware Upgrade
Describes the method for performing the file-level backup, restore, reset, and firmware upgrade.
Backup & Restore
The outdoor router provides an easy way to back up and restore the previous configurations. Please backup your router configurations before making changes to the router.
Backup Configurations
After accessing the router, navigate to "System > Backup / Flash Firmware > Action: Backup". Click the "Generate Archive" button to download the current router configuration archive.
Turn off the auto unzip function on Sarafi or use other web browsers to download the backup archive file. Please do not modify the archive file to avoid failure of MD5 verification while restoring it.
Restore Configurations
To restore previously saved router configurations from the local PC, please navigate to "System > Backup / Flash Firmware > Action: Restore." Click the "Choose File" button to load the previously downloaded archive file. Click the "Upload Archive" button to upload the archive.
Flash Firmware
