Using the Reset Button
If you forget the login password to the web management page or could not access the web
management page, use the reset button on the WS550 rear panel to restore the WS550 to its
default settings. Perform this operation with caution. After the WS550 is restored, all custom
data and settings will be lost.
To restore the WS550 to its factory settings, power on the WS550 and press and hold the
WPS/Reset
button for at least 6 seconds until all the indicators turn off.
The WS550 will restart, which will cause temporary network interruptions.
Restoring Configuration by Importing Backup File
If your operations fail after multiple configurations or you want to quickly restore the WS550 to
the familiar configuration state, you can upload the backup configuration file to restore the
configuration.
Please regularly back up WS550's configuration file to your computer. For example, back up
WS550's configuration file before updating its configuration parameters or before restoring it to
the factory default settings.
