Almost all decent, normal Routers, which incorporate an ADSL Modem,
(such as your Belkin one), Save their Settings either into CMOS
(that's Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Memory, or if they
don't use CMOS Memory, they use some kind of Flash Memory.
CMOS normally needs a Battery to keep the stuff Active, but the
Battery is normally a Lithium one, designed to last the lifetime of
the thing, or (possibly) a Rechargeable one - either way, you aren't
expected to do anything to have to make it keep the Settings.
& if it uses Flash Memory, (which I think many of them do), then that
is not Volatile anyway & it stores the Information until it's ReSet
or Wiped.
So, going away on Holiday & UnPlugging the Router (even for several
Months!) won't mean the Settings in it get "forgotten".

People will never forget how you made them feel.
