Hard reset instructions for EnGenius ESR-9752

If your ESR-9752 router is not working as it should, dropping connections or not being responsive, you should first do a reset of the router to see if the problems persist. Other scenarios where you might want to reset your router is if you've forgotten the password or misconfigured it and can't get access anymore.
Your can reset your EnGenius ESR-9752 in the following way(s):

Through the web interface

  2. Sign in with your username/password, if unchanged check default settings below
  3. Locate Management in the menu and click it
  4. Click on Configure

  5. Wait for the router to reboot.

The 30-30-30 reset

If the above instructions don't work you can always try the 30-30-30 reset as follows:
  1. When router is powered on, press the reset button and hold for 30 seconds. (Use a paper clip or something sharp)
  2. While holding the reset button pressed, unplug the power of the router and hold the reset button for 30 seconds
  3. While still holding the reset button down, turn on the power to the unit again and hold for another 30 seconds.

This process usually works for resetting any router to it's factory setting.
