This guide will cover how to reset the Baudtec T263R1U router back to factory settings. This is not the same thing as rebooting a router. To reboot a device means you are cycling it's power by turning it off and back on again. Resetting a device is taking all the settings and reverting them back to factory settings.

Warning: Be careful when you reset this Baudtec T263R1U router you may have problems if you don't know what is changed. We recommend making a list of settings. Consider the following:

  • The router's username and password are returned to factory defaults.
  • If you use a DSL router you will need to re-enter the ISP username and password. To find out what these are you need to call your ISP.
  • All other settings such as IP address changes or port forwards are erased.

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.

NordVPN is the fastest VPN!

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.

The first step is to locate the tiny reset button. Normally this is found on the back panel of the router but it may also be on the underside of the router. Unfortunately we were unable to find an image of the reset button for verification. If you have this router we would love input about where this button is found.

After you have located the reset button use a sharpened pencil or pen to press and hold the reset button for about 10 seconds. Do not unplug or turn off the router during this process.

Remember this erases all changes you have ever made to your router. We strongly recommend trying other troubleshooting methods first.

Login to the Baudtec T263R1U

Now you need to login to the Baudtec T263R1U router using the proper default username and password. Sometimes these are found in the user manual or on the device itself. We have found these defaults for you and added them to the Login Guide for the Baudtec T263R1U.

Next it's a good idea to change the default password to something new. Never leave a password in it's default state. When changing your router's password consider the ideas and tips provided in our Choosing a Strong Password guide.
