WNR2000v5 Factory Reset
I cannot find the factory reset button on my WNR2000v5. Does it have one or do I need new glasses?
> [...] The manual says [...]
Which "The manual"? I was looking at the picture on page 111 of:
http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/WNR2000V5/WNR2000v5_UM_20Nov2014.pdf
If you're looking at the JWNR2000v5 manual:
http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/JNR1010V2/N150_N300_Wireless_Router_UM_EN.pdf
then a search for "reset" should lead you to pages 7 and 12, which
identifiy the (multi-purpose) button. But your picture shows no "J".
All I know is what I read in the manual(s).

Can you read the User Manual without new glasses? Visit
http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look for
Documentation. In the User Manual, look for "Factory Settings".
You may need a new paper clip (or small, inanimate carbon rod).Thanks for the reply. The manual says there is one but does not provide a picture of where it is. Please see the attached photo and direct me to where the darn thing is.
