2. Using a straightened paper clip, press and hold the Reset button for at least
10 seconds.
Note: If you hold the Reset button for less than 10 seconds and then release it, the
access point restarts rather than returns to its factory default settings.

Do not turn off the access point. Wait until the access point finishes restarting and
the Power/Cloud LED turns solid green or solid blue.
