Resetting the Prestige

You should already have downloaded the correct file from your nearest ZyXEL FTP server site. See the Prestige 100L
User's Guide for more information on how to transfer the configuration file to your Prestige.
If you have forgotten your password or for some reason cannot access the SMT menu you need to reinstall the
configuration file. Uploading the configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the default
configuration file. You lost all configurations that you had before and the speed of the console port resets to the
default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, 1 stop bit (8n1), and no Flow Control. The password resets to the
default value of 1234, also.
Turn off the Prestige and begin a Terminal session with the current console port settings. Turn on the Prestige again.
When you see the message "Press Any key to enter Debug Mode within 3 seconds", press any key to enter debug
mode.
