On this page I will show you how to reset the Linksys SPA-3102 phone adapter.

A reset is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you cycle the power to the unit. When you reset a router you take all the settings and return them to factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting this router is a big step and should not be taken lightly. I recommend making a list of all the possible settings you have changed during the lifetime of the router. Some of these settings could be:

  • The router's main username and password.
  • Any port forwarding you have done.
  • IP addresses that have been changed.
  • Parental controls, DNS, etc...
