Resetting the Router to Factory Defaults

To reset the router to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button on the back of the
Telephony Gateway for more than fifteen seconds. This restores the wireless setup
configuration and router configuration parameters to the factory defaults. You may need to
do this if a misconfiguration has locked out all access.
