Note: Performing a hard reset will restore the router to its factory default settings. This will erase any custom configurations, including Wi-Fi settings, passwords, and network configurations.

Hard Reset Procedure:

1

Locate the Reset button under the router. It is typically a small, pinhole-sized button

2

Use an unfolded paperclip, SIM card ejector, or any similar small object to press and hold the Reset button for about 10-15 seconds. You will see the Power LED starts blinking or you see the lights on the router flash

3

Release the reset button after holding it for the required time. The router will begin to restart. This process may take a few minutes. Once the reboot is complete, the router will return to its factory default settings.
