Restart Router
When the Gateway is restarted, it will disconnect all users, initialize all its interfaces, and copy the Operating Sys-
tem Software from its internal storage.
When you make configuration changes, you must restart for the changes to take effect.
Reset Router
You might need to reset your Gateway to its factory default state, and clear all of your previous settings. The 
Reset Router
 link allows you to do that. When you click the link, you will be challenged to confirm that this is 
what you want to do.
If you want to clear your settings, click the 
Yes, reset to factory settings
 button. The Gateway configuration 
will be reset to the factory default. Any configuration information you have entered will be lost and will have to be 
re-entered. The Gateway will automatically restart.
