Restoring Factory Default Configuration
Troubleshooting
You can restore factory default configuration either by pressing the Reset to
Default button on the rear panel, or by clicking the Erase button on the
Backup Settings page.
Note The system, password, custom default, and factory default reset functions can
be disabled by the access point’s software.
To restore to factory default using the Reset to Default button:
1. Using a pointed object such as the tip of a ballpoint pen or a straightened
clip, press the Reset to Default button for five seconds or more. The LEDs
flash rapidly (about 10 times per second).
2. As soon as the LEDs (except the Power LED) shut off, release the Reset
to Default button.
The AP resets to factory defaults and reboots. You can then release the reset
button.
To restore to factory default from the Web interface:
1. Log on to the Web interface.
2. On the menu, click Backup Settings. The Backup Settings page appears.
Caution! No warning or confirmation appears after you click Erase. The access point
will restore its settings to factory default immediately.
3. Under Revert to Factory Default Settings, click Erase.
The following message appears:
Please wait....
AP is rebooting......
PLEASE WAIT until re-directed to Information page.
When the access point has completed restoring its settings to factory default,
the Web interface refreshes and displays the Information page. If the access
point was using an IP address other than the default, you may see a Page Not
Found message in your browser. This is because the access point has already
reverted to its default IP address, 192.168.1.11, which may be incompatible with
your current network settings.
