Hello, the factory default procedure can be found in the User Guide or here:&nbsp;[http://community.cambiumnetworks.com/t5/ePMP-Installation/How-can-I-reset-the-AP-or-SM-to-default-configuration/m-p/33684#M6](https://community.cambiumnetworks.com/t/how-can-i-reset-the-ap-or-sm-to-default-configuration/37463)

The default UN/PD should now be admin/admin.&nbsp; You can also try logging in using 169.254.1.1 address.

However, if you have the retain passwords feature enabled, you might be out of luck.&nbsp; A support case would be needed to see your options (probably reset via SNMP).&nbsp;&nbsp;[http://community.cambiumnetworks.com/t5/ePMP-Configuration-Management/Retain-passwords-upon-factory-default-procedure/m-p/63478#M32](https://community.cambiumnetworks.com/t/retain-passwords-upon-factory-default-procedure/48690)

A last option would be to use the discovery tool to see if it can be located and accessed.&nbsp;&nbsp;[https://support.cambiumnetworks.com/files/epmp/#r3](https://support.cambiumnetworks.com/files/epmp/#r3)
