Yes, but clearing the password also resets the configuration of the device. So following a reset, the gateway or router will need to be completely reconfigured. To reset a ‘GT’ Series Router, Gateway or Wireless Access Point, begin with the unit powered up and with a solid Green Power light. Then using a small tool depress and hold the Reset button on the back of the device just until you see the color of the Power light change from Green to Amber. Be sure to release the Reset button before the Power light turns Red. The length of time that the Reset button must be held to accomplish the reset varies from model to model, but as long as the Reset button is released while the power light is Amber the Reset will be successful.
