In this guide I will show you how to reset your Alcatel-Lucent CellPipe 7130 RG router back to factory defaults. This is not the same thing as rebooting the router. Rebooting requires you to turn the router off and back on again to cycle the power. Resetting the router is erasing all your configurations and reverting it back to factory defaults.

Warning: This reset process is not to be done all the time. This should be a last resort. Problems can occur if you are unaware of what a reset will change. Take the following into consideration before continuing:

  1. The router's username and password are reset to factory defaults.
  2. The WiFi username/SSID and password are reverted back to defaults.
  3. If you use a DSL connection for your Internet you could lose Internet if you don't know your ISP username and password. Call your ISP for further details.
  4. All configurations you have made to this router to make it yours are erased. After resetting the router you need to reconfigure the router to the way you had it. This could include port forwards, firewalls, and even IP address changes.
