To be honest I wasn't going to do the reset on the router (I didn't have to on the Netgear or the Belkin before that.

But the guide on these forums has this in this instructions The first thing you need to do is power down the modem and then you need to do a pinhole reset of the router, if you look on the back of the router the is a grey reset hole, you take a pen and press it into the router while powered on for 30 seconds..

That was more the basis for me asking why it was needed before using the router. I assumed it would be ready to go out of the box?
