2.4. Restore to Factory Default
If the repeater ever freezes in a setting change process or if you can't access
it because you can't remember the IP you have given it or other problem, you
may have to utilize the reset button on the back of the repeater to put it back
to factory settings. You have to press and hold this button for a few seconds
(2-6s) with a pencil when it is working, then release and it will restore settings
to the factory configuration.
The other way to restore factory settings is through the same user interface
used in setup. Click on 'System management'- 'Restore', and click on the
'Restore' button.
3.- CONFIGURE YOUR COMPUTER
You can manage the COM-817 Repeater through the Web browser-based

To configure the device via Web browser, at least one properly configured
computer must be connected to the device via Ethernet or wireless network.
The COM-817 Repeater is configured with the default IP address of 192.168.1.1
and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and its DHCP server is enabled by default.
Before setting up the repeater, make sure your computers are configured to ob-
tain an IP address automatically from the repeater by the steps below.
