Router wifi settings gone after power outage

This happened to us yesterday for the first time since we purchased our r6900 at Costco and we've had multiple power outtages in the years since purchase. Took us a bit to figure out because our wifi names were gone, but new discoverable networks were available but needed a password. Turned over the router and sure enough, it had reset to default. Thankfully we figured it out after a good while. 🙄

Power cuts are great at killing or scrambling electronic devices.

 

If you have that sort of issue regularly, it helps to save a backup copy of your router's configuration so that you can quickly reload it if this happens again.
