This guide will cover how to reset the BEC-Technologies BEC-7402GTM-MI router back to factory settings. The words reset and reboot are confused a lot. To reboot a device you cycle it's power by turning it off and back on again. To reset a device you take all the settings and return them to how they were from the factory.

Warning: Be careful when you reset a router, settings will be changed. Problems arise when you are unaware of what these changes are. Please consider the following before continuing:

  • The WiFi settings are all returned to how they were from the factory. This includes the SSID, security method, and password.
  • The router's interface username and password are returned to factory defaults.
  • If you use DSL to connect to the Internet you must re-enter the ISP username and password before you can use the Internet again. Call your ISP for this information.
  • All settings you have adjusted in the past will be erased. This could be anything but some common ones are port forwards, IP address changes, and firewall settings.
