If you forget your password or cannot access the WR1500 Wireless Router, you will need to
reload the factory-default confi guration fi le or use the RESET button on the side panel of the
WR1500 Wireless Router. Uploading this confi guration fi le replaces the current confi guration
fi le with the factory-default confi guration fi le. This means that you will lose all confi gurations
that you had previously and the speed of the console port will be reset to the default of
9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop bit and fl ow control set to none. The password will
be reset to “1234”, also.
