Does a single touch of reset button reboot the Mikrotik router

Sat Mar 02, 2019 9:14 pm

Have had Mikrotik for a while and always rebooted the router using commands in Windbox. Today I can't login to the Mikrotik and want to reboot the router but not redo the configuration.
Googling "restart mikrotik" it keeps talking about holding in the reset button and power off the Mikrotik off/on again to restore base config but if I just want to restart I would just press the reset button on the box once quickly leaving the power on. Just wanted to make sure.

Thx

Just remove the power for a couple of seconds, then reconnect.
