What is the name or path for the file stored on your hard drive for the configuration settings?
-
I saved mine to a folder on one of my drives. You can save it anywhere you want, just remember where you put it.
-
How do you set it to save where you want? For me, you click save settings and it does not give you an option of where to save the settings.
-
What Browser are you using? I hit the save configuration button and I get a Windows box asking me where I want to save it. If you have already tried to save one, look in your downloads folder.
-
I'm using IE 7. I've looked in the downloads folder. What is the file name and extension of your configuration file? Maybe I could try a search for that file name or an abbreviated file name.
When I click save again - with no changes - it will say - no changes have been made, do you want to save anyway. I click yes. Then I've done an Explorer search (XP/SP3) by the date, look for entries in last minute or so, still cannot find anything that seems to be related to D-Link router.

Mine is gateway_settings.gws
I am using an A hardware model, if you are using a B it may be alittle different.
-
I have A, too. Funny thing, the date on the .gws file for me is 5/25/10, which is when I first set up the router. Today, I did a firmware update and wanted to restore the configuration file. Could not find it. I gave up on finding it and set up the wireless manually, assigned/saved new name and password. So there should be new date to the file.

The config file doesn't update as you make changes to the router. You need to save a new copy of it after changes are made, that way you can restore it if you need too.
