Reset the Gateway 
Hardware Reset 
Reset the gateway by inserting a paper clip or similar tool into the reset switch hole located on 
either the rear or the bottom of the gateway (depending upon model). Press the switch briefly to 
reset the device. 
Hardware Reset (to Factory Default Settings) 
To reset the gateway to its factory default settings press the reset switch for 4 to 5 seconds starting 
at power up. After releasing the reset switch the gateway will continue booting with a factory 
default configuration. 
IMPORTANT 
Pressing the reset switch for more than 6 seconds causes the SmartRG gateway to 
reset into its boot image rendering the gateway non-functional. This condition can be 
detected by: 
  the inability to access the SmartRG gateway’s user interface using your 
web browser –and- 
  the inability to properly establish a WAN connection 
To correct this condition simply cycle power on the gateway. 
Software Reset 
To reset the gateway using the SmartRG gateway’s web UI: 
1.  Select Management -> Reboot. 
2.  Click Reboot. 
NOTE 
Software resets, hardware resets and power cycles behave identically.
