This guide will show you how to reset your A-Link RR24AP router. Resetting your router is different than rebooting the router. Rebooting is simply turning it off and back on again. Resetting the router erases all the configurations you have done to it returning it to the original factory defaults.

Warning: Since this erases everything you have done to the router there are some things you need to consider first.

  • The router's interface username and password are reset.
  • The wireless username and password are reset to factory defaults.
  • The ISP username and password need to be re-entered. If you are unsure of these you will need to call your ISP for details.
  • Any configurations you have made such as firewalls or port forwards need to be redone.
