Return the Modem Router to Its Factory Default Settings
Under some circumstances (for example, if you lost track of the changes that you made to
the modem router settings or you move the modem router to a different network), you might
want to erase the configuration and reset it to factory default settings.
If you do not know the current LAN IP address of the modem router, first try to use an IP
scanner application to detect the IP address before you reset the modem router to factory
default settings.
To reset the modem router to factory default settings, you can use either the
Reset
button on
the back panel of the modem router or the Erase function in the web management interface.
