2. Unplug the power cable or Ethernet cable (if using PoE) and wait 15 seconds. 
   
   
3. Reconnect the power or Ethernet cable and wait for the SIP light to blink.
   
   
4. Insert a pin into the reset hole and press until the SIP light begins to double-blink.
   
   
5. Take out the pin.
   
   

The device should reboot. If it does not, repeat steps 1–5, waiting longer at step 2.

All unit settings are restored to factory settings
