Using the Reset Button
Use the Reset button (1), on the back of the Data Gateway, to reset the modem and
perform initialization as if you power cycled the unit. You may need to reset the Data
Gateway if you are having problems connecting to the Internet. Using this button will be
rare.
Use a pointed non-metallic object to press this button. The Reset button is recessed to
prevent accidental resets.
