BGW210 Backup?
AT&T can't seem maintain the integrity of the user defined parameters in their customer's home routers, so does anyone on this forum know (approved or clandestine) of a way to create a backup of Port Forwarding tables? I have over 20+ devices and they all got redefined with the latest firmware update to point to a single IP address. This happens every (Edited per community guidelines) time they push something down, then my whole family screams at me because something isn't working and I have to go on a journey for figure what happened and take all day away from something else, because AT&T and Arris/Pace Engineers can't do their job right!!!
Frustrated!!! Test it correctly please!!!!

They don't test the out-of-the-mainstream features well at all. DMZplus/IP Passthrough has had bugs several times. Port Forwarding has had more, I'd say.
You could put your own router behind the Gateway and eliminate this particular choice of issue.

That's what I'm looking at now, but (Edited per community guidelines) me off that I have spend money, because AT&T won't do their job of a) ensuring they do no harm with their upgrades, or b) provide me the ability to backup my installation to prepare for their lack of software integrity

Yeah, it is regrettable that the only way to backup your configuration is to paper or screenshots and the restoration mechanism is your fingers.
