This page shows you how to reset the Billion BiPAC-7404VNOX router back to the original factory default settings. Before we start there are two terms that are easily confused, to reset and to reboot. To reboot a router is to cycle the power to it by unplugging the power, waiting about 30 seconds, then plugging the power back in. To reset a router is to take all the settings and return them back to factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting a router can be problematic if you don't understand what changes when the reset is complete. We suggest making a list of settings you know will be changed. We have started that list for you:

  • The router's main username and password are returned to factory defaults.
  • The Internet name, password, and security method are reverted to factory defaults.
  • If you use DSL you need to re-enter the ISP or Internet Service Providers username and password. You'll need to call your ISP for this info.
  • Have you made any other changes to the router? How about port forwards? How about 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.

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 in any reset is to know where the reset button is located. Turn your router around and look at the back panel. The reset button is a small recessed button labeled reset. We have circled it's location for you in the image below.

This is the reset page from your Billion Bipac 7404VNOX router.

Take the tip of a sharp pencil or pen to press and hold down the reset button for about 10 seconds. Any less and you may only reboot the device instead or resetting it. This is done to avoid accidental resets.

Please don't forget that this WILL erase every setting you have changed on this device. We recommend trying other troubleshooting methods before you resort to resetting the router.

After the reset is complete you need to login to the device using the correct default IP address, username, and password. We have already found this information for you and included it in our Billion BiPAC-7404VNOX Login Guide.

Change Your Password

The next step is to change the default password. The default password is extremely easy to guess by design. This does not make a strong password. If you follow the ideas and tips put forth in our Choosing a Strong Password guide you will create a strong buy memorable password.

Tip: It's extremely important that you don't lose this password. If you are resetting a home router it's okay to write this password down on a sticky note and attach it to the bottom of the router.
