Restore Default Settings

To restore the Modem to its factory default settings, select Restore Default Settings from the “Utilities” screen. When the “Restore Default Settings” screen appears, click Restore Default Settings. Any changes made to the Modem’s settings will be lost and the factory default settings restored. During this process, the Modem’s Power light flashes and the Modem is disabled.

NWarning: Do not unplug the Power cord from the Modem dur- ing the Restore Default Settings process. Doing so may result in permanent damage to the Modem.

When the Power Light stops flashing and glows steadily green, the Modem is fully operational.

Upgrade Firmware

Selecting Upgrade Firmware in the “Utilities” screen generates the “Upgrade Firmware” screen. Actiontec periodically posts firmware upgrades to enhance the Modem’s capabilities. Follow the instructions on-screen to upgrade the Modem’s firmware.
