7.3Reset to Factory Defaults

Resetting your Thomson Gateway

If at some point you can no longer connect to the Thomson Gateway or you want to make a fresh install, it may be useful to perform a reset to factory defaults.

Warning

A reset to factory default settings deletes all configuration changes you made. Therefore, after the reset, a reconfiguration of your Thomson Gateway will be needed.

Also your WLAN clients will have to be re-associated, as described in “4 Wireless” on page 21.
