Chapter 2 Introducing the Web Configurator

2.3 Resetting the NWA

If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the RESET button at the rear panel of the NWA. This replaces the current configuration file with the factory- default configuration file. This means that you will lose all the settings you previously configured. The password will be reset to “1234”.

2.3.1 Methods of Restoring Factory-Defaults

You can erase the current configuration and restore factory defaults in two ways:

Use the RESET button to upload the default configuration file. Hold this button in for about 3 seconds (the light will begin to blink). Use this method for cases when the password or IP address of the NWA is not known.

Use the web configurator to restore defaults (refer to Section 11.8 on page 116).
