Reset the MP modem
The reset button for the MP modem is on the top of the
housing.
To reset the MP modem, press the
button until all four indicator lights
illuminate. (Do not use sharp imple‐
ments that might puncture the
rubber.)
Resetting the MP modem is equiv‐
alent to turning the MP modem off
and on. This terminates any data
connection and causes the MP
modem to perform a self‐test. (Stored
settings are not lost.)
