Troubleshooting - Resets Page
The Troubleshooting – Resets page allows you to reset various components associated with the 2Wire
gateway network.
Figure 44. MDC Troubleshooting Resets Page
The
Clear
button in the Local Network field clears all devices from the Local Network list. Doing so will
change the configuration settings, and may affect 2Wire gateway operation because it removes all devices
(such as computers) from your network.
The
Reset
button in the DSL Connection field retrains the 2Wre gateway’s DSL connection.
The
Reset
button in the ISP Connection field resets the PPP connection and/or releases and renews the
broadband IP address.

The
Reset
button in the Broadband Link field allows you to reset the 2Wire gateway broadband link. For
2Wire gateway models with a DSL connection, this means the DSL connection is reset.
The
Reset
button in the Gateway field allows you to restart the 2Wire gateway. During 2Wire gateway restart,
the Troubleshooting page cannot be accessed until the 2Wire gateway completely restarts and the
connection is reestablished.
The
Reset
button in the to Factory State field resets the 2Wire gateway to an unprovisioned default state.
Doing so will remove all your configuration settings, and requires 2Wire gateway software reinstallation.
Warning:
Resetting the 2Wire gateway to an unprovisioned default state will clear all update
records from the Upgrade History page, and delete all provisioning, firewall, and Enhanced
Services configuration settings.
