Reset a SOHO 6 to factory default

Firmware corruptions or other unforeseen events (such as a lost System Security passphrase) require you to reset the SOHO 6 to its factory default settings.

To do this, first disconnect the power supply. Then find the reset button located at the rear of the SOHO 6. Press and hold the reset button. At the same time, reconnect the power supply. Continue pressing the reset button while the SOHO 6 reboots– approximately 15 seconds. The PWR indicator light should blink in a steady pattern once the reboot is complete. When this occurs, reboot the SOHO 6 again by disconnecting the power supply.
