Security question are buggy for a long time, ie they don't work as advertised. At the back of the router there's a reset button. Press it for 7-10 minutes (or until Power LED begins to flash) then release. This should perform a factory reset

I would think 7-10 seconds is long enough for a reset to be triggered.
