If you are talking about a factory reset, @GForce, the default that came with the router will be what you have to have devices set to.

Whatever came with the router will reset, but you can always set up your own choice if you want to.

No, everything will be as on the sticker attached to your router.

That's what it means by default to factory settings.

Changes made by you prior to a reset default to everything on the sticky label after a reset.

NB: the removable one only shows the wifi network and password. That's duplicated anyway on the permanent sticky label. Your Router password is also listed on the sticky label. Assume all defaults apply after a factory reset.
