You should now see the
Status
screen. See
Chapter 2 on page 29
for details about the
Status
screen.
Note: The management session automatically times out when the time period set in the
Administrator Inactivity Timer field expires (default five minutes). Simply log back
into the NWA if this happens.

If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the
RESET
button at the rear panel of the NWA. This replaces the current configuration file with the factory-
default configuration file. This means that you will lose all the settings you previously configured.
The password will be reset to “1234”.
