Factory Defaults
You can reset the Router to its factory default settings. In the Utilities & Diagnostics screen, select Revert to
Factory Defaults and press Return. Select CONTINUE in the dialog box and press Return. The Router will
reboot and its settings will return to the factory defaults, deleting your configurations.
In an emergency, you can also use the Reset switch to return the gateway to its factory default settings. Call
Motorola Technical Support for instructions on using the Reset switch.
If you lose your password and are unable to access the Telnet screens, you can manually reset the gateway in
an emergency. See
Appendix A, "Troubleshooting."
Beginning with Software Version 8.5, you can avoid having to completely reconfigure the Router by saving a
Factory Default configuration. See
Transferring Configuration and Software Files with TFTP
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a method of transferring data over an IP network. TFTP is a client-server
application, with the gateway as the client. To use the Router as a TFTP client, a TFTP server must be available.
Motorola, Inc., has a public access TFTP server on the Internet where you can obtain the latest software
versions.
To use TFTP, select Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) in the Statistics & Diagnostics screen and press
Return. The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) screen appears.
