Using the Default Reset button
To restore the factory default configuration settings without knowing the Manager password or IP
address, you must use the Default Reset button on the rear panel of the router.
1. Press the Default Reset button for 10 seconds, then release it.
If the TEST LED begins to blink, the defaults have been restored and the router is now
rebooting. Otherwise, go to step 2.
2. Disconnect the power from the router.
3. While depressing the Default Reset button, reconnect power to the router.
Continue to hold the Default Reset button. The TEST LED will begin to blink, then will
flicker very quickly after about 10 or 15 seconds. This indicates that the defaults have been
restored and the router is now rebooting.
4. Release the Default Reset button and wait for the router to reboot.
