In this guide I will show you how to reset your router to factory defaults. This is not the same thing as rebooting the router. Rebooting is cycling the power to the device by turning it off and back on again. Resetting the router will erase everything you have ever changed in the interface section of the Alvarion WIXFBR-103X187 router.

Warning: Resetting your router should only be done if you have already exhausted your other troubleshooting options. Resetting your router can create more problems if you don't know what to expect. Consider the following:

  • The router's username and password are reset
  • The Wifi username and password are reset to factory defaults.
  • If you happen to use a DSL connection you will need to re-enter the ISP username and password. If you don't know this information call your ISP.
  • All configurations you have ever made will be erased. This can include port forwards, and even IP address changes.
