Restore default settings of your Wi-Fi network

Restore your Wi-Fi network to default settings by resetting your modem. There are 2 ways to restore factory settings: the hard reset (via the reset button) and the soft reset (via the configuration menu).

The result is exactly the same in both cases: all parameters (e.g. the name and password of the Wi-Fi network) return to their original configuration.
