You can reboot the Router using the Reboot option, or you can reset the Router to factory defaults using
the Reset option. Reboot should be used when the Router needs to be restarted without losing your
current configuration settings.

Note: This option may not be available on your Router configuration.

To reboot the Router, select Tools>Reboot from the left navigation pane of the Web interface. This
displays “System Reboot” window.

The “System Reboot” window displays a countdown while processing. When the Router has finished
rebooting, the “System Summary” window is displayed.

Reset to system defaults:

Reset the Router to system defaults should be done when you find it necessary to recover the factory
default settings. This may be necessary when a custom configuration did not go as planned, when a new

Note: This option may not be available on your Router configuration.

the

Reset button.
