Using the reset button
The location of your range extender's reset button will vary depending on its model. The reset begins once you
press and hold thereset button for
at least 10 seconds while the range extender is powered
ON. The
Status Light on the the range extender will momentarily flash and will then begin to blink. When the light becomes solid again, the reset is complete.
Using the web-based setup page
If using the physical button does not work, you can access the range extender's web-based setup page and do the reset from there.
Before you begin:
- Make sure that the wireless computer or device you're using to access the web-based setup page is connected to the same network as the range extender.
- You need to identify the IP address that your router has assigned to your range extender. Locate this by accessing your router's DHCP Client table. Once you have the range extender's assigned IP address, use it to access your range extender's web-based setup page.
- Alternatively, you can enter "http://192.168.206.1" in the web browser's Address bar if your range extender has NOT detected a DHCP server in your network.
Step 1:
In the web-based setup page of the range extender, go to
Utilities and select
Restore Factory Defaults.
QUICK TIP: You may be prompted to log in with your range extender's administrator password. If you have not set any, simply leave the field blank and click on
Submit.
Step 2:
Click on the
Restore Factory Defaults button.
Your Belkin range extender should now be restored to its factory default settings.
