Restarting your Linksys Mesh system is far less disruptive than a factory reset because all settings are maintained. This article provides step-by-step instructions on how to restart your network. 


If you need to reset your node to factory defaults, follow these instructions.
 



Through the Linksys app

1. Log in to the Linksys app and access your dashboard.

2. Tap the menu icon on the upper left portion of the screen.

3. Tap Network Administration

4. On the Network Administration page, scroll to the bottom, tap the refresh icon, and then Restart. Your devices will disconnect from the network, but they will reconnect automatically once the node is ready and the devices have found the network.
