Factory rest keeps failing

'Factory reset' as the term is generally used means to reset your computer to the way it was when it left the factory, hence the name. After a factory reset, your computer is
exactly the same way it was when you first brought it home.

If this is what you have in mind, you should know that the procedure for performing a factory reset comes not from Microsoft but from the manufacturer of your computer. So if you're having trouble performing a factory reset, the people to ask for help are
the manufacturer's own technical support.

All the major computer manufacturers publish their factory reset procedures on their websites. All you have to do is to find the procedure that applies to your particular model and then follow the manufacturer's detailed, step-by-step directions.

If you had something else in mind, please explain what it is.

 

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
