Cisco RV120W User Manual

Factory Reset and Reboot on RV120W and
RV220W
Objective
The router can be set to factory default if the Reset button on the router is pressed or
through the web configuration utility on the router. Press the Reset button on the back of the
router for 8 seconds to reset your router to its factory default settings. Any settings on the
router will be erased and the router IP address will become "192.168.1.1". Both the
username and the password will be "cisco".
Reboot is a soft operation which a user might need to use if there is a problem with software
or hardware. Reboot is handled by software and happens in automatic mode. Reset on the
other hand is a rough operation which a user might need when the device cannot restart or
be turned off.
This article explains how to reset your device through the reset button and also through the
configuration utility.
