On this page we show you how to reset the BeWAN B13002 router back to it's original factory defaults. This is not the same thing as a reboot which simply cycles the power to the device. A reset takes all the settings and reverts them back to how they were from the factory.
Warning: Resetting this router is a big step. Make sure you understand what this means. Resetting a router means you need to reconfigure the device after this reset process is complete. Please consider the following:
- The reset causes the router's main username and password to be reverted to factory settings.
- This reset erases the Internet password you set and reverts all WiFi settings back to factory.
- If you use a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP username and password. This username and password can be found by calling your local Internet Service Provider.
- Any other settings such as IP address changes or port forwards are erased and need to be reconfigured.

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.

Once you have decided to reset the BeWAN B13002 router you need to know where the reset button is located. Normally the reset button is found on the back panel or underside of the device. Although I was unable to find the exact location for this router I can show you a similar router:
If you know where the exact location of the BeWAN B13002 reset button is leave me a comment and I will update this page.
As you can tell from the image above the reset button is going to be very small and recessed to avoid accidentally resetting the router. Take a sharp pencil or pen and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. If you don't hold the reset button down for long enough you may end up simply rebooting the router instead of resetting it like you wanted to.
Understand that this reset is erasing all your personal configurations. You need to reconfigure the router after the reset is complete.
