Firmware to Your Dual

Your Dual 56K LAN Modem has been designed to be user-upgradeable. The latest

Resetting the Dual
56K LAN Modem
There are two types of resets you can perform, a normal reset and a factory reset.
■ A normal reset will leave all user-entered configuration parameters unchanged.
Any active calls will, however, be terminated.
■ A factory reset restores the Dual 56K LAN Modem configuration to the factory
default settings listed in Appendix D. All user-entered parameters are lost.
To reset the Dual 56K LAN Modem, follow these steps:
1 From the Dual 56K LAN Modem Main Configuration Page, click the Advanced
button.
2 Click the Maintenance button.
3 Select the type of reset you would like to perform, normal or factory.
Resetting the Dual 56K
LAN Modem to the
Factory Defaults
If you are unable to access the LAN Modem Main Configuration Home Page
because your computer cannot communicate with the LAN Modem, you can
restore the LAN Modem to the factory default settings using the reset switch
located on the unit’s back panel. To reset the LAN Modem using the reset switch,
do the following:
■ Press the reset button located on the back of the unit once and then release.
The Alert LED will begin to flash, indicating a reset in progress.
■ While the Alert LED is still flashing, press and continue to hold in the reset
button. (You must continue to hold the reset button through three more cycles
of LED flashing: Reset, Firmware Download Mode, and Factory Default Reset.)
■ The first cycle begins after approximately ten seconds. The Alert LED will begin
to flash, indicating that the unit has been reset. This first reset is similar to a
power-cycle of the unit. All user-entered information is maintained.
■ The second cycle of Alert LED flashing indicates that the unit has entered
firmware download mode.
■ After the Alert LED has flashed for the third cycle, you have successfully reset
the Dual 56K LAN Modem back to factory defaults.
■ Release the reset button.
