FirstAid Agent for Emergency Firmware Upgrade
82
Returning the AT-AR220E Parameters to the Default Settings
This procedure returns the gateway’s parameter settings to their factory
default values. This procedure can be of value if you forget the IP
address of your router and cannot connect to it for administrative
purposes. This procedure requires the FirstAid program and the
PARAM.INI file, both of which are stored on the CD included with the
product.
1.
If you have not already, install both the FirstAid utility and the
PARAM.INI file on your PC. Instructions for installing the utility can
be found in Chapter 2.
2.
Assign the PC an IP address, if it does not already have one.
3.
If the router is powered ON, power OFF the unit and disconnect all
devices from the router except for the PC containing the FirstAid
utility. The PC should be connected to one of the LAN ports on the
router.
4.
Start the FirstAid.EXE from the following directory: C:\Program
Files\Broadband\FirstAid.
5.
Select File > Stop the System.
6.
Select File > FirstAid Agent Configuration.
7.
Specify the path and filename to the PARAM.INI file stored on the
PC.
8.
Select File > Start the System.
9.
Power ON the router.
The FirstAid utility displays a series of messages as it loads the
default parameter settings onto the unit. The process is complete
when the Self Test LED on the router flashes continuously. (If this
fails to occur, close the FirstAid utility and repeat this procedure.)
10. Select File > Stop the System.
11. Power cycle the router by disconnecting and connecting the power
cable.
The default settings for the router have now been returned to their
default settings. The router’s IP address is 192.168.1.1. To log on to the
router, go to Chapter 4.
