Just ordered a RAX120! Any easy way to move over from my R8000?

Question

Hi - just took advantage of the good eBay discounts and purchased a RAX120.

I have a R8000.

Is there any easy way to move my network names etc from one to the other or do I basically have to set up the new one from scratch?

Thanks!

Not really. You can make life easier with screen shots of the important settings.

You made a good choice in routers.&nbsp; I went from a R7900 to the RAX120 and had to re-enter all my data.&nbsp; Unfortunately, the RAX120 does not remove an IP address form the table of available IP's when you reserve one.&nbsp; You must keep track on paper.&nbsp; Why? &nbsp;I just don't understand why an expensive new router does not implement a standard feature of previous routers.&nbsp;I have found FW 108 performs better than newer versions.&nbsp; It is Deja vu all over again just like the R7000 FW.&nbsp; It may take another year or two for the FW to mature.&nbsp;I still like my new RAX120 but, I am anxious to see it live up to its potential.

OK it looks like I am wrong about FW 108.&nbsp; It has spontaneously rebooted the router twice this week.&nbsp; Going back to FW 114 until something better comes along
