Factory Settings

System / Backup / Factory Settings

On the "Factory Settings" page you can restore the factory settings of the FRITZ!Repeater.

When you load the factory settings, all of the individual settings you made in the FRITZ!Repeater are deleted. It makes sense to load the factory settings if you are going to use the FRITZ!Repeater at a different location or are planning to pass it on to another user, for example. In addition, this deletes incorrect settings that prevent the FRITZ!Repeater from functioning properly.

Preparations

We recommend saving the settings of your FRITZ!Repeater in a backup file. With this file you can restore the backed up settings to your FRITZ!Repeater at any time.

  1. Go to "System / Backup" and select the "Save" tab.
  2. Read the instructions on the password and enter a password if needed.
  3. Click the "Save" button.

Loading Factory Settings

  1. Click the "Load Factory Settings" button.

The FRITZ!Repeater is reset to its factory settings.

Reconfiguring the Computer

Before you reconnect your computer with the FRITZ!Repeater or with a wireless access point (FRITZ!Box), please note:

  • If a fixed IP address was entered in the FRITZ!Repeater, you must adjust the IP settings of your computer accordingly.
  • If the wireless key entered for the FRITZ!Repeater is different than the one for the wireless access point, you will have to establish the wireless connection again.
