Restoring the Default Password and Configuration
Settings
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.
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 5 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 stop blinking and 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.
This procedure will erase all the current configuration settings and restore the factory
defaults.
