User Manual

Use a hardware reset to reconfigure the device (delete all user settings) or if you have lost the password to access the device.

Before performing a hardware reset, you can save the configuration file (startup-config file): Saving the startup-config configuration file.

To perform a hardware reset properly, we recommend temporarily disconnecting all network cables from the router.

Every Keenetic device has a 'Reset' button on it. You can find it on the same side where the rest of the ports are located (the exact button location depends on the model).

During the reset process, it is important to pay attention to the 'Status' indicator (leftmost), which shows the device state.

To reset your Keenetic to the factory defaults, proceed as follows:

Turn on the router's power and wait for the device to boot fully.

Press the 'Reset' button using a sharpened thin object (e.g. a paperclip) and hold it in until the 'Status' LED on the front panel starts frequently flashing (usually it takes 10 to 12 seconds), and then release the button.

After that, the Keenetic will restart with the default settings (factory defaults).

Note

You can reset your router through the Keenetic mobile app. To do this, establish a connection with the router within the home network and run the application.

In the Keenetic app, in the router settings, go to the 'Management' menu and at the bottom of the screen, click 'Reset'.
