  @PavPev why would they do this? Almost feels like they are setting themselves up for accusations of fraud. The UI clearly states that you can back up your configuation in order to restore it if need be. But when you actually need to do this, there simply isn't a way. Infuriating.

  @xjsimon So this post on Deco Configuration backup has not been updated for over a year.

 

In the last week I have been forced to factory reset my Deco X73-DSL because of problems connecting to my ISP.

 

I have many address reservations and port forwardings which take hours to setup in the Deco App.

 

A backup & restore Configuration seems a very basic function for a router. 

 

Please TP Link address this.

  @xjsimon I dont know why some time ago they released a version that allowed to save a backup file with bin extension, for later remove this feature ... Implemented something that everyone wants to remove after ...

This is very frustrating! I created a backup because I am in the process of changing my whole system, thinking that later I would have the option to delete this backup since it contains sensitive information. Reading this post I am furious that I don't have the option to delete my backup? Aren't we protected from GDPR? How can I get this backup deleted from tp-links cloud servers? Can someone help? I'm really stressed about this. I tried contacting support to have the file removed and haven't heard back, yet.

 

Obviously I unchecked the automatic backup to prevent future backups but there is one backup left on the cloud. By changing my network SSID and password not to match the ones from the backup, do I have something to worry about in a potential data breach of these network configuration files?
