This page covers how to reset the Billion BiPaC-7402NX router back to it's original factory defaults. Before we do that there are two terms that are easily confused, reset and reboot. To reboot a router means to cycle the power to the device. This is done by unplugging the power from the router, waiting a minute, and turning it back on. The other term is to reset a router. This is taking all the settings and returning them to factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting this router can be a problem if you don't know what settings are changed. We recommend making a list of settings you know will be changed. We have started this list for you.

  • The router's username and password.
  • If you use DSL, the ISP or Internet Service Provider username and password.
  • The Internet name, and password.
  • Have you made any other changes to this router? Have you forwarded any ports? Have you changed any IP addresses?

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.

Before we start this reset you need to know where the reset button is located. Take a look at the back panel of the Billion BiPaC-7402NX router. It is a tiny recessed button labeled Reset. We have it circled for you in the image below.
