In this guide we will show you how to reset the Asus DSL-AC68U router. This is different than a reboot. A reboot is a simple cycle in the power to the device. To do this you simply unplug the device, wait 15 seconds, and plug the device back in. A reset erases all your personalized settings and returns them to factory defaults.
Warning: Resetting a router is a big step. You need to fully reconfigure the device afterwards. Some of the settings that need to be changed after a reset are:
- The router's login username and password.
- The router's Wi-Fi SSID/network name and password.
- If this is a DSL router, you need to re-enter the ISP (Internet Service Provider) username and password. Call your ISP for these details.
- Any port forwarding, scheduling, or IP addresses you have changed.

Reset the Asus DSL-AC68U
To find the reset button on your router, turn it around so you are looking at the back panel. This reset button is very small and typically recessed to avoid accidental resets.
While the router is on, take a small sharp object such as a straightened paperclip and press down on the reset button for approximately 10 seconds. This begins the reset process which can take several minutes to complete.
Warning: Do not unplug or turn off the router during the reset process. Doing so can cause permanent damage to the device.
