factory-default settings.
1.8 Resetting the ZyXEL Device
If you forget the ZyXEL Device's IP address or your password, to access the ZyXEL Device,
you will need to reload the factory-default using the
RESET button. Resetting the ZyXEL
Device replaces the current configuration file with the factory-default configuration file. This
means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously. The following parameters
will be reset to the default values.
1.8.1 Methods of Restoring Factory-Defaults
You can erase the current configuration and restore factory defaults in two ways:
1 Use the RESET button on the ZyXEL Device to upload the default configuration file
(hold this button in for at least five seconds).
2 Use the web configurator. Click System > Management > Configuration File . From
here you can restore the ZyXEL Device to its factory default settings.
