What is the PRINT function for the 68U? That sounds like exactly what I was looking for recently.
Oh, rats. I thought it was going to export all the settings in a human-readable format.
How do others back up and restore settings? Obviously there's the built in backup & restore but that brings any setting bugs along with it. I was looking for a simple way to manually transfer my settings to a new router without having to tab through dozens of settings screens looking for changes.
I don't disagree with the advantages of a clean start.
That said, I am not a power user and I go months (or years!) without changing anything in the settings. It was really frustrating to have to dig through all the settings screens to find the few places I'd made changes so that the new router would function.
For me personally it was port forwarding (which didn't work until I toggled off and on PNP. weird.) and parental controls. Having to re-set-up all the parental controls and re-name all the devices is exquisitely annoying.
I went from RT-AC88U to RT-AX88U. For me, the range and performance have been phenomenal improvements. Plus the hardware accelerated VPNs are icing on the cake.
