7.4 Reset to Factory Defaults

Resetting your SpeedTouch™

You might consider a reset to factory defaults as described below.

!

Be aware that a reset to factory defaults will revoke all configurational

changes you made to the SpeedTouch™.

You can choose between:

Hardware reset

Software reset

A reset to factory default settings deletes the configuration profile settings. Therefore, after the reset, a reconfiguration of your SpeedTouch™ will be needed.

Also your WLAN clients will have to be re-associated, as described in “2.3.2 Connecting First-time Wireless Clients” on page 26.

Hardware reset Proceed as follows:

1Make sure the SpeedTouch™ is powered on.

2Use a pen or an unfolded paperclip to push the recessed reset button on the back panel. The reset button is marked with a red circle. Keep it pushed until the power LED lights red - this will take about 7 seconds.

3Release the reset button.

4The SpeedTouch™ restarts.

Software reset Proceed as follows:

1Go to the SpeedTouch™ web pages.

2In the menu select SpeedTouch > Configuration.

3In the Pick a task... list, click Reset my SpeedTouch to default settings.

4The SpeedTouch™ restarts.

5The SpeedTouch™ returns to the SpeedTouch™ Home page (unless the IP address of your computer is not in the same subnet as the default IP address of the SpeedTouch™, being 192.168.1.254).
