RUT955: Restore to factory defaults KEEPS user data

Why does the action "Restore to factory defaults" keep user setting in the memory instead of deleting it?
During a new configuration, settings from the previous installation are offerd to be re-used instead of having them to type in from scratch!

Hi,

After proceeding with "Restore to factory defaults" the router should reset itself and no signs of configuration should be left.

  • Could you make sure that you have the latest firmware version and you don't have any custom reset button times set?
  • Try resetting your router with the reset button holding it for exactly 5 to 6 seconds
  • Also, you could try executing firstboot command, which will lead you to wipe your router to "first-time use" state.
  • The last resort would be reflashing your firmware in the bootloader menu.

Yes, the latest Firmware RUT955 is installed. No custom reset button times were changed. I just used the Software Button on the Web GUI and afterwards I even disconnected the power adapter for a few minutes.

Very strange - with RUTX11 I did not have such experience...

Next time I will try the physical reset button.
