After going to the ip-address of the modem, a window for entering the login and password will open. By default, the username is admin and the password is admin. If the login and password data are not suitable, you need to find out these data from the network administrator or the person who configured your modem.

Select the Service, Tools, System or Managment menu item, then click the Reload or Restart button. In some models of modems, the restart button can be directly in the interface menu.
