How to reset config from fail-safe mode
Somehow switching from LAN NAT mode to single-client mode messed something up and I can't reach my node anymore on the LAN. It's a bullet M2 and I can reset it into fail-safe mode. How do I reset the config to the default (as if I had just flashed) on the command line?

I read "If the device has a reset button you may instead press and hold the reset button for 15 seconds which will cause the unit to behave as if it had just been flashed with the AREDN™ firmware." in the help, but it ain't sayin' when to press for 15 seconds and so far no attempt of mine has worked.

Next to the Ethernet port on
Next to the Ethernet port on the Ubiquiti bullet is a small reset button (also depending on the power injector you have this button is also on the injector).

After the node is fully booted from a normal start up (plug in power to ethernet port and the status 4 led goes from flashing to solid) you can press and hold the reset button for 15 seconds and then release (too short or too long and it will ignore the press) the node will reset itself and reboot (LED's will go back to normal boot style.)  Once rebooted (Status 4 solid again) the node will be back at preconfig mode where you can enter your callsign and details again.
