Factory reset info

Hello, the factory reset in the GUI will reset both, router and satellite, or just the router? Thanks in advance.

Ok, I am logged into the satellite, where can I find the reset button?

Thanks.

Is there a Advanced selection some place? Possible the Satellite doesn't have a reset UI.
If it doesn't you'll just need to hit the reset button on the back.

There is no option to reset an RBR50 or RBS50 from within the GUI. That is purely a mechanical thing with the paperclip.

  from the router, what does Advanced - Administration - Backup Settings - Revert to factory default settings do?

    Well damn I didnt know that was there... interesting that NG doesnt refer to that in their reset instructions.
    
    Appreciate you pointing that out to me.
