Set a new password

Restore default password
If you would like to restore the default password, you can perform a pin-hole reset. This will restore all of the default settings, including the WiFi channel and network name.

- Push and hold the button with a paperclip or pin and hold for 15 seconds.
- The lights on the modem will begin to flash if the reset was successful.
