In this guide I will show you how to reset the Atlantis-Land A02-RA243-W54M router to factory defaults. There is a lot of confusion between resetting a router and rebooting a router. Rebooting a router is simply a way of cycling the power by turning it off and back on again. Resetting a router is taking all the settings in the interface and returning them to factory settings.

Warning: Don't reset this Atlantis-Land A02-RA243-W54M router unless you know what will be changed. We suggest making a list of the settings you know will be affected. Please consider the following:

  • The router's web interface username and password are returned to factory defaults.
  • The WiFi username and password are returned to default.
  • IF you use a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP username and password so you aren't disconnected from the Internet. Call your ISP if you don't know the these details.
  • All configurations such as port forwards, DNS address changes, and IP address changes are erased and reverted to default values.

Setup WiFi on the Atlantis-Land A02-RA243-W54M

The next step is to check your WiFI settings. These are reset as well and some router manufacturers leave the WiFi open as the default.
