Note The following steps reset all configuration settings to factory defaults, including passwords, WEP keys,
the IP address, and the SSID.
For additional information on access point default behavior, refer to the “Default IP Address Behavior”
section on page 6-4 and the “Default SSID and Radio Behavior” section on page 6-4.

defaults using the MODE button:
Step 1 Disconnect power (the power jack for external power or the Ethernet cable for in-line power) from the
access point.
Step 2 Press and hold the MODE button while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 3 Hold the MODE button until the Status LED turns amber (approximately 2 to 3 seconds), and release the
