Could a WNR3500Lv1 config backup .CFG be used in a WNR2000v3 ?
Hello all,
My WNR3500Lv1 — N300 Wireless Gigabit Router has a problem and I may have to replace it
Could that saved backup CFG of WNR3500Lv1 be restored into a WNR2000v3 to save time in the complex configuration I have in the WNR3500Lv1 ?
Thanks

No. Different hardware. I wouldn't even recommend using the same configuration unless it was same model AND version.
Indeed.
I find that the best way to remember settings is to make a set of screen grabs of key pages.
There is a long running discussion on this issue:
