2. What can I do if I forgot my password?
If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. This process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults.
To reset the router, locate the reset button on the rear panel of the unit. With the router powered on, press and hold the button
down for at least 10 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to
access the router. The default IP address is
