This page shows you how to reset the Billion BiPAC-7404VGOX router back to factory defaults. Before we do that we need to discuss two terms that are easily confused. The first term is reboot. Rebooting a router is the same thing as cycling the power to the device. This is done by unplugging the power to the device, waiting 30 seconds, then plugging it back in. The other term is reset. Resetting a router is taking all the settings and returning them to factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting this router is a major step. You need to consider the consequences. We recommend making a list of settings you know will be reset. We have started this list for you below:

  • The router's interface username and password.
  • The Internet name and password.
  • If you use ISP you need to enter the ISP username and password before you can use the Internet again. Call your Internet Service Provider for more information.
  • Have you made any other changes to your router such as port forwards, or IP Addresses? All of these will be reset 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.

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 resetting this router is to locate the tiny recessed button on the back panel. We have found it for you and circled it in the image below.

Now take a sharp pencil or pen and press down on the reset button for about 8 to 10 seconds. If you press this button down for less time you may only reboot the router instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Remember that this WILL erase every setting you have ever changed on your router. It is recommended that you try other troubleshooting methods before you reset this router.

Login to the Billion Bipac 7404VGOX

After you have finished resetting the router you need to login to the device using the appropriate default login information. The default IP address, username, and password. These can be found in the user manual or the Billion BiPAC-7404VGOX Login Guide.

Change Your Password

The next step is to change the default password. We have a guide full of helpful ideas and tips for creating a strong and memorable password. Check it out in this Choosing a Strong Password guide.

Tip: Take that password and write it down on a sticky note. If this is a home router you can then take that sticky note and attach it to the bottom of the router for future reference.
