MR60, not saving changes after reboot
When I make changes in the routerlogin.net screen, I hit save and it updates the settings and everything looks good. When I reboot the router though, it reverts the settings back to what it was befor...

I have an update to my reported fix from last year: Restoring an immediately saved configuration appeared to work initially but after my next weekly reboot, the modem settings reverted back! When that happened again, I decided to cut bait and purchased a replacement "other" brand modem. The new modem has been running flawlessly since. Problem solved.

I was directly wired into the MR60, which at that time, it was not connected to the ISP modem and not connected to the internet.

Tried connecting it to modem to complete the network?

Yes, thats how it was connected initially but when I started to have problems, I was isolating it just to the MR60 and removed it from the network to figure out why I couldn't reset it back to factory settings and it wasn't actually applying any of the setting changes.

Is it a new router?
May be a dud that needs replacing.

Nope, 3 years old.
Thats what I was thinking but wanted to see if anyone had a cheat code up their sleeve to force factory reset.
