Reset Button - NETGEAR BR200 Hardware Installation Manual

To simplify the procedure for attaching devices, all RJ-45 ports support Auto Uplink
technology. This technology allows you to attach devices to the RJ-45 ports with either
straight-through or crossover cables.
When you insert a cable into the router's RJ-45 port, the router automatically performs
the following actions:
• Senses whether the cable is a straight-through or crossover cable.
• For the LAN Ethernet ports, determines whether the link to the attached device
requires a normal connection (such as when you are connecting the port to a
computer) or an downlink connection (such as when you are connecting the port to
a switch or WiFi access point).
• Automatically configures the RJ-45 port to enable communications with the attached
device. The Auto Uplink technology compensates for setting uplink connections
while eliminating concern about whether to use crossover or straight-through cables
when you attach devices.

Reset button

The router provides a Reset button so that you can return the router to its factory default
settings.
CAUTION: This process erases all settings that you configured in the router.
To reset the router to factory default settings:
1. Locate the Reset button on the back panel.
2. Using a straightened paper clip, press and hold the recessed Reset button until the
Power LED lights amber, which takes about five seconds.
3. Release the Reset button
The Power LED starts blinking amber and the configuration is reset to factory default
settings. When the reset is complete, the router reboots. This process takes about
two minutes.
