How to backup and restore settings on Thomson Speedtouch ST605 router.

I've been using this router for a couple of years and configured to match with our current office setup. For unknown reasons, this router suddenly reset to it's default or factory setup so it is highly recommended to backup its settings.


To backup configuration:
Step 1. Using the web browser, access the router by typing the ip address on the address bar.
Step 2. Enter the username and password if required.
Step 3. Besure you are in "Basic Mode" setup.
Step 4. Navigate to "Speedtouch->Configuration->Backup&Restore.
Step 5. Click "Backup Configuration Now"
Step 6. Save the "user.ini" to a safe place of your PC.

To restore configuration:
Step 1. Follow above steps 1 to 4
Step 2. Under "Restore Saved Configuration", click "Browse" button.
Step 3. Point to the "user.ini" file.
Step 4. Click "Restore Configuration Now"
Step 5. Wait for 1 minute for the router to configure itself and your done.
