Return the Router to Its Factory Default Settings

Under some circumstances (for example, if you lost track of the changes that you made to the router settings
or you move the router to a different network), you might want to erase the configuration and reset the router
to factory default settings.
If you do not know the current IP address of the router, first try to use an IP scanner application to detect
the IP address before you reset the router to factory default settings.
To reset the router to factory default settings, you can use either the Reset button on the back of the router
or the Erase function. However, if you cannot find the IP address or lost the password to access the router,
you must use the Reset button.
