In this guide we will show you how to reset your 3Com 3CRWDR101E-75 router. This is not the same as rebooting the router which is simply turning it off and then back on again. Resetting the router is more involved and will revert all the settings back to the original factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting your router will erase all of your personal changes you've made to this device. Take the following into consideration before continuing:

  • The router's username and password will be reset to out of box factory settings.
  • The Internet username and password will also be changed to how they were from the factory.
  • If your ISP requires a username and password these need to re-entered in order for your Internet to continue.
  • Any configurations you have made such as port forwards or firewalls will need to be entered again.

Use a VPN

Have you considered using a VPN when you connect to the internet? A VPN is a great way to increase your security and anonymity while surfing.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes securely sharing your home network super simple. With NordVPN Meshnet, you can connect to your devices from anywhere in the world, completely secure, over a highly encrypted VPN tunnel.

When shopping for a VPN, make sure that they meet the following criteria:

  • Your VPN provider should have a no-logs policy. This means that they do not keep any logs of any kind.
  • Make sure that your VPN provider has lots of exit nodes all around the world.
  • Check that your VPN will not affect your speed.
  • Verify that your VPN provider uses WireGuard as the underlying protocol.
  • Many people prefer a VPN provider that is not based in the United States.

This is the list of requirements that we used when we were shopping around for a VPN provider. There are lots of free, shady VPN providers out there that we looked at and dismissed.

Based in Panama, using diskless servers, and with over 6,100 servers in 61 countries, we can safely say that NordVPN satisfies all of these requirements.

NordVPN birthday deal!

Once you've set up your NordVPN account on multiple computers and enabled Meshnet, you can seamlessly access all of your devices as if they were on the same network. You don't even have to log in to your router. It's very simple.

Every time you click on one of our affiliate links, such as NordVPN, we get a little kickback for introducing you to the service. Think of us as your VPN wingman.

With the router powered on turn it over so you are looking at the back of it (where you plug in cables).
