2. What can I do if I forgot my password?
If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back
to the factory defaults.
To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the router powered on, use an
unfolded paperclip to hold the reset button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its
reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the router. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1. When logging in,
the username is admin and you should leave the password box empty.
