Situation

The router is to be reset to its delivery state. This achieves a defined initial state, for example to commission the router as described in the Quick Installation Guide. Profiles that might exist on the router can be stored before.

Solution

Resetting using the user interface

It is prerequisite that you have access to the user interface of the router.

  1. Open the user interface of the router in a browser: 192.168.1.1

  2. Store profiles possibly existing on the router as described in Storing and Restoring Settings.

  3. Activate in the cog Administration → Reset menu the enable reset switch, ensure that all reset options are checked and click on   RESET NOW  cog counterclockwise white  .

Resetting using the reset key

If no access to the user interface is possible, it is also possible to reset the router using the Reset key at the front.

  1. Press the Reset key three times within two seconds briefly. [1]

Troubleshooting

If the router has been reset using the Reset key and is still not available as described in the Quick Installation Guide 15 seconds later, it is possible that the timing when pressing the key was not correct and another try is necessary.
