    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".

    to be a backup drive and i can't do anything without having storage on my drive. Please help me find a way to get past this.

    Factory reset without wiping the hard drive

    Hello, Sofia here.

    I just wanted to ask if I press "reset everything", will it delete my hard drive?

    I'm not planning to sell my pc. I just noticed my laptop was beginning to become slower and slower throughout the day.

    Can someone guide me on how to factory reset my Laptop without wiping the hard drive?

    I'm not planning to keep my files, just my hard drive, if that makes sense.

    I would appreciate the help. Thank you~

    Have a wonderful week!
