About Factory Resets

A factory reset on the NF18MESH returns all settings to the default settings as they were when shipped from the factory.

Factory Reset Methods

There are two methods that can be used to perform a successful factory reset:

1. Use the NF18MESH’s graphical user interface (GUI) to complete a factory reset.
2. Manually perform a factory reset using the reset pinhole at the back of the NF18MESH.

This guide will explain both methods to complete a successful factory reset.
