current configuration and restores the factory defaults.
To restore the factory default configuration settings:

on the rear panel of the router, for about 20 seconds (see “Back Panel” on page 3 ).

Release the reset button and wait for the router to reboot.
The factory default settings will be restored so that you can access the router from your web
browser using the factory defaults.
