7.2.1. Restore to Factory Default
If the router ever freezes in a setting change process or if you can't access it because you can't
remember the IP you have given it or other problem, you may have to utilize the reset button on
the back of the router to put it back to factory settings. You have to press and hold this button for a
few seconds (2-6s) with a pencil when it is working, then release and it will restore settings to the
factory configuration.
The other way to restore factory settings is through the same user interface used in setup. Click on
"System management"- "Restore", and click on the "Restore" button.

Click on "System Management"- "Upgrade", you will be able to browse to select a newer
firmware version you have downloaded and then click on the „Upgrade‟ button to proceed.

security. Click "Wireless Management" - "AP Setup" – "Security". Five different encryption
