Restore Configuration

Restore Configuration allows you to upload a new or previously saved
configuration file from your computer to your ZyXEL Device.

Do not turn off the ZyXEL Device while configuration file upload is
in progress.

After you see a “restore configuration successful” screen, you must then wait one
minute before logging into the ZyXEL Device again.

Figure 97 Configuration Upload Successful

The ZyXEL Device automatically restarts in this time causing a temporary network
disconnect. In some operating systems, you may see the following icon on your
desktop.

Figure 98 Network Temporarily Disconnected

If you uploaded the default configuration file you may need to change the IP
address of your computer to be in the same subnet as that of the default device IP
address (192.168.1.1). See

Appendix A on page 195

for details on how to set up

your computer’s IP address.
