gsm7248v1 unable to reset

Oh, I have heard of USB-Serial adapters alright.
I already own 2 of them:

http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Serial-Converter-TU-S9-Blue/dp/B0007T27H8/
They have, in my case, turned out to be hit-and-miss gadgets.
Please don't get me going and turn this thread into a debate on USB-Serial adapters.
What I really would like is whether these switches are known to fail to be reset to factory defaults; what sort of workaround is there to get them reset again.
And, I would really really appreciate to know is if there are ways of doing this without having to resort to USB-Serial adapters.
