On this page we will be discussing how to reset the Cabac LWADSLR4P router back to factory defaults. It's important for you to know that this is not the same thing as a factory reboot. A reboot is a cycle of power to the device. Nothing is altered in a reboot. A reset is a major alteration. A reset takes all the settings and returns every one of them back to factory defaults.
Warning: This reset is a big step in troubleshooting. Make suer you know what settings will be changed by this reset. We recommend making a list of settings that you know will be changed. We have started this list for you:
- The router's main username and password.
- The Internet name and password.
- The ISP username and password if you own a DSL router. You need to call your ISP for more information.
- If you have changed any other settings on this router they will be erased. This includes any ports you have forwarded or passwords you have changed.

Reset the Cabac LWADSLR4P
The first step in a reset is to locate the actual reset button. For this particular router it is located on the back panel. See the image below for reference.
Take an unwound paperclip and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. This initiates the reset process. If you don't hold this button down for long enough you will end up rebooting the router instead of resetting it like you wanted.
Be sure you know that resetting a router will erases everything you have ever done to your router. To avoid the hassle of re-configuring the router you should try other options before trying a reset.

Change Your Password
Once you finish logging into the Cabac LWADSLR4P router you should change the password you just used. Default passwords are by design easy to guess. For a refresher on passwords read our Choosing a Strong Password guide.
Tip: It's very important that you don't lose this password. If you keep this router in a secure place (like your house) it's okay to write the new password on a sticky-note then attach it to the bottom of the router.
Setup WiFi on the Cabac LWADSLR4P
