the cable data gateway settings or you move the cable data gateway to a different network),
you might want to erase the configuration and reset it to factory default settings.
If you do not know the current LAN IP address of the cable data gateway, first try to use an IP
scanner application to detect the IP address before you reset the cable data gateway to
factory default settings.
To reset the cable data gateway to factory default settings, you can use either the
Reset
button on the side of the cable data gateway or the Erase function in the web management
interface. However, if you cannot find the LAN IP address or lost the password to access the
cable data gateway, you must use the
Reset
button.
