Restoring the Default User Name and Password
You can restore the factory default configuration settings that reset the router’s User Name to admin, the Password to password, and the IP address to 192.168.1.1. This procedure erases your current configuration and restores the factory defaults.
To restore the factory default configuration settings:
1.Use a sharp object such as a pen or a paper clip to press and hold the default reset button, located on the rear panel of the router, for about 20 seconds (see “Back Panel” on page 3).
2.Release the reset button and wait for the router to reboot.
