A <b>factory reset</b> returns the device back to its default factory settings, i.e., it deletes all custom configurations. This chapter is an overview on the various ways of performing a <b>factory reset</b> on a {{{name}}} device.

Using recovery methods resets the device's configuration to its default state. Therefore, you will need to use the default authentication info in order to login to the device. The default login information for {{{name}}} is provided below:

Summary

A factory reset returns the device back to its default factory settings, i.e., it deletes all custom configurations. This chapter is an overview on the various ways of performing a factory reset on a {{{name}}} device.

NOTE: SIM PIN on the main SIM card is the only user parameter that is kept after a factory reset.

Reset Button

The reset button is located on the back panel of the device:

[[File:{{{file_reset_button}}}|{{{size_reset_button}}}px]]

The reset button has two functions:

  • Reboot the device. If the reset button is pressed for up to 4 seconds, the device will reboot. Start of the reboot will be indicated by the flashing of all 5 signal strength LEDs together with the green connection status LED.
  • Factory reset. If the reset button is pressed for at least 5 seconds (by default), the device will perform a factory reset and reboot. Signal strength LEDs indicate the elapsed time while holding the reset button. When all 5 LEDs light up, it indicates that 5 seconds have passed and the reset button can be released. Start of the factory reset will be indicated by flashing of all 5 signal strength LEDs together with a red connection status LED.
    NOTE: the default button hold time value (5 seconds) can be changed in the router's WebUI, from the System → Administration → [[{{{name}}}_Administration#General|General]] page.

WebUI

You can also perform a factory reset from the router's WebUI. To do so, login to the router and go to the Administration section found under System tab (System → Administration → General). In the very bottom of the page there's a Restore button that performs a factory reset:

[[File:{{{file_webui}}}|{{{size_webui}}}px]]

NOTE: SIM PIN on the main SIM card is the only user parameter that is kept after a factory reset.

SMS

You can perform a factory reset with the SMS Utilities restore rule. If the rule hasn't been disabled or changed in any way, all you need to do is send an SMS message to the router containing the text <router_password> restore. Replace <router_password> with your router's admin password. You can find more information on SMS Utilities Rules here

NOTE: SIM PIN on the main SIM card is the only user parameter that is kept after a factory reset.

Command line

You can perform a factory reset via a command line interface. Simply type firstboot and press the "Enter" button. After this you will be asked to confirm the reset. If you're sure about the reset, type the letter y and press "Enter", otherwise type the letter n if you wish to cancel the reset. If you agreed to perform a factory reset, next type in reboot and press "Enter". The router will be reset to it's factory settings and rebooted. You can find more information on command line interfaces supported by RUTxxx routers here.

NOTE: SIM PIN on the main SIM card is the only user parameter that is kept after a factory reset.

Default login information

Since all of the router's configurations are deleted and restored to defaults after a factory reset, you'll need to use the router's default authentication info in order to login to the router. The default login information is provided below:

  • Default Address (LAN IP): 192.168.1.1
  • Default Username: admin
  • Default Password: admin01
