Backup File is not Compatible - RUT 240

Hello,

I had a previous default config file that I used to flash the routers, until recently when trying to restore the backup file on a new router I got the information that the backup file was not compatible with teh fevice.

After analysing, I saw that the part number was different between each other, ending up with RUT2400DE000 and RUT24006E000.

My question is, is there a way to still import configs between different router part numbers, or will need indeed 2 backup configuration files?

Thank you in advance.
José

Hello,

It is possible to move some of the configurations to a new device by copying configuration files. Please, take a look at the forum post here.

Kind Regards,

Hello, I have the same issue.

In my case, after I testing the Hardware (it was a used one) and I find it will fit, I bought a second router as a sparepart. Because the time after a failure must be under 30 minutes. So I have decide to configure the seconde device exakt the same as the first device. For that case I have made a backup from the Konfiguration and have tryed to load it on the second device but it say it was incompatible.

“*Only configuration file from identical device with same or lower firmware version (lowest 03.726) can be uploaded”

For me this means: All devices of the RUT240 family can load this file, they just have to have the same FW version.

There are two things what diffent between them.

  1. Device Informations:
    Produktcode RUT24000XXXX/Produktcode RUT24006XXXX
    Chargennummer 0019/Chargennummer 0107
    Hardware-Revision 0007/Hardware-Revision 0010

  2. Firmware Informations:
    Bootloader Version 2.0.1/Bootloader Version 3.2.2

Is this a bug or a feature?
I mean that the configuration cannot be loaded, it can only be an error.

With best regards

Thank you!

That did worked!

Hello,

@Darthbully

The devices have different product codes and the hardware is slightly different (the modem versions). Thus, you receive an error when you try to upload the backup. I would suggest following the method outlined in the previous response (copying configuration files).

Kind Regards,
