On this page I will show you how to reset the ADB DRG A1235G router back to the original factory defaults. A reset like the one I will be describing on this page is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you cycle the power to the device, nothing more. When you reset a router you erase all settings that you have changed in the past and return them all to factory defaults.
Warning: A reset like this can change a lot of settings you have on your device. Be careful and make a list of all the settings you know you have changed in the past. Things you may not have considered are:
- The router's main username and password.
- The Internet name or SSID and the password.
- If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP or Internet Service Provider username and password. Call your local ISP for these details.
- Have you changed any other settings on this page? How about IP addresses or port forwards?

Reset the ADB DRG A1235G
The first thing you need to do is find the reset button on the outside of the device. Most ADB routers have it on the back panel. Unfortunately I don't have a image of this particular router to show you. The reset button should be in a similar place as the image of one below.
With the router turned on take a straightened paperclip and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. This starts the reset process. If you don't hold the button down for long enough you might end up rebooting it instead of resetting it so be careful.
Tip: Remember this reset is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed on this device. If you want to avoid this you need to try other methods of troubleshooting.
Login to the ADB DRG A1235G
After you have finished resetting the ADB DRG A1235G router you need to login using the defaults available on our ADB DRG A1235G Login Guide.
