There's no option to interchange configuration backup between routers, unless the model and HW version match.

In some cases even with the same router model and HW version, but with different FW versions, you can't do that because of the changed security mechanism for example:

 

So you should do that manually taking some notes/screenshots of the old router configuration, before configuring the new router from scratch.

  @terziyski OK thanks for confirming I have to do it manually.  I thought that might be the case as I could not find anything stating I could do it and could not find anything to the contary!
