There are multiple ways to reset the system on OpenWrt.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Accessing the Web Interface: Enter the IP address of the router in the browser, log in to the OpenWrt Web interface. Select the “Backup\/Flash Firmware” tab in the “System” menu, then scroll down to the “Reset” section at the bottom of the page. Click the “Reset” button, then choose either “Perform Reset” or “Keep settings but reset network configurations”. Click the “Apply & Reset” button, and the router will be reset.<\/li>\n
  2. Access the command line interface: Log in to the command line interface of OpenWrt via SSH. Enter the following command to reset the system:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    firstboot\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
    This will restore the system to its factory settings and delete all user configurations.<\/p>\n
      \n
    1. Using a hardware button: Some routers have a physical button for resetting the system. This button is usually located on the back or side of the router. Hold the button for about 10 seconds until the router’s indicator lights flash, then release the button. The router will be reset.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      Please make sure to back up important configurations and files before executing any reset operations to avoid data loss.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
