How do I reboot my router?

To reset your Calix U4 router, follow these steps to restore the device to its default settings. Please note that performing a reset will erase any personalized configurations you’ve made. Here’s how you can do it:

Using the Reset Button:

  • Locate the small reset button on your Calix U4 router. This button is usually labeled “Reset” and is typically found on the back or bottom of the router.
  • Gently insert a paperclip or similar thin object into the reset button’s hole and hold it for about 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Release the reset button when you notice the router’s lights blinking or flashing. This indicates that the reset process is starting.
  • The router will automatically restart and begin restoring its default settings. This process may take a few minutes.
  • Once the router completes its reboot, you can access its settings using the default login credentials. These are often displayed on a sticker attached to the router or provided by Zentro Internet.

Using the Router’s Web Interface:

  • Open a web browser and enter the router’s IP address, which is typically “192.168.1.1” or “192.168.0.1.” Press Enter.
  • Log in to the router’s web interface using your assigned username and password. If you haven’t personalized these settings, you can use the login details provided by Zentro Internet.
  • Navigate to a section labeled “System,” “Administration,” or “Reset.”
  • Within this section, locate an option that lets you “Factory Reset” or “Reset to Defaults.” Click on this option.
  • Confirm your decision to proceed with the reset when prompted.
  • The router will initiate the reset process and reboot itself. Please allow some time for this process to complete.
  • After the reset is done, you’ll need to set up your router anew. This includes configuring your network name, password, and any other customized settings.
