How to Reset the 8level WRT-150

On this page we will show you how to reset the 8level WRT-150 router to it's original factory defaults. Resetting your router is not the same as rebooting the router which is simply turning it off and then back on again. Resetting the router returns it to the original factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting your router can cause some problems. Some things that need to be considered are:

• The main router username and password will be erased and reset to the original factory defaults.
• Any WiFi SSID or password you created will no longer exist. You need to recreate these.
• The ISP username and password need to be re-entered in order to continue using the internet. If you are unsure if you need these you should call your ISP for more details.
• Any further configurations such as firewalls or port forwards need to be reconfigured as well.

Reset the 8level WRT-150

Use a VPN Instead

Have you considered using a VPN instead of forwarding a port? For most users, a VPN is a much simpler and more secure choice than forwarding a port.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes forwarding a port no longer necessary for most applications. 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.

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.

While the router is switched on turn it around so you are looking at the back of it. See the picture below.

Using a pencil or unfolded paperclip press and hold the small reset button for about 6 seconds. We have circled the reset button in the picture above.

Note: This erases everything you have changed previously on this router. Make sure you have tried other options before resetting the 8level WRT-150 router.
