Restoring the Default Password and Configuration
You can restore the factory default configuration settings that reset the router’s User Name to
admin, the Password to password, and the IP address to 192.168.1.1. This procedure erases your
current configuration and restores the factory defaults.
To restore the factory default configuration settings:
1.
Use a sharp object such as a pen or a paper clip to press and hold the Restore Factory Settings
button, located on the rear panel of the router, for about 20 seconds, until the power light
begins to blink (see “Back Panel” on page 4).
2. Release the Restore Factory Settings button and wait for the router to restart, and for the Power
light to become solid green.
The factory default settings will be restored so that you can access the router from your web
browser using the factory defaults.
