Restore Factory Default Configuration
This option restores the entire factory default settings including the IP address, channel and related
values. Only activate this option if you are sure that you can regain access to the unit. For
example, do not activate the reset over the wireless link as there is a risk that when the reset is
completed, then the WLAN settings of the client and the access point will be different. Select Next
to activate the factory default configuration.
