7.2. Advanced Settings

7.2.1. Restore to Factory Default

If the router ever freezes in a setting change process or if you can’t access it because you can’t

remember the IP you have given it or other problem, you may have to utilize the reset button on

the back of the router to put it back to factory settings. You have to press and hold this button for a

few seconds (2-6s) with a pencil when it is working, then release and it will restore settings to the

factory configuration.

The other way to restore factory settings is through the same user interface used in setup. Click on

“System management”- “Restore”, and click on the “Restore” button.

7.2.2. Password Change

You may wish to change the router's password. To do so, click on „System Management”-

“Password setup”, enter a new password, confirm it, and click on “Save”

7.2.3. Firmware Upgrade

Click on “System Management”- “Upgrade”, you will be able to browse to select a newer

firmware version you have downloaded and then click on the „Upgrade‟ button to proceed.

7.2.4. Wireless Security Settings

To protect your wireless network from unauthorized user access, you may wish to set up wireless

security. Click “Wireless Management” - “AP Setup” – “Security”. Five different encryption

modes - “None”, “WEP”, “WPA-PSK”, “WPA2-PSK” and “WPA/WPA2-PSK” - are provided.

WEP authentication mode is not recommended when WPS is enabled.

 If you want to use WEP, you can select ASCII characters (alphanumeric) or Hexadecimal

(“A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”). For 64-bit WEP, input 10 Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”

range) or 5 ASCII characters. For 128-bit WEP, input 26 Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and

“0-9” range) or 13 ASCII characters
