How to factory reset your router

You should never need to factory reset your MR8300 router—a very disruptive process. A factory
reset restores your router to the state it was when you took it out of its box, requiring you to go
through the setup process again. All settings you have customized in setup and since – things such as
Wi-Fi name, passwords, security type – will be erased. All wireless devices will disconnect from your
Wi-Fi.
To factory reset :
• With your router connected to power and turned on, press and hold the Reset button on the
back panel. The light on top of the router will blink red. Do not release the button until the light
goes out and then turns bright red.
