On this page we will show you how to reset the Binatone WR1500N router back to factory defaults. It is important to know that this is different than a reboot. Rebooting a router is cycling the power to the device by unplugging the power, waiting about 30 seconds, then plugging the power back in. On the other hand a reset takes all the settings and reverts every one of them back to factory defaults.

Tip: Resetting a router can cause even more problems for you if you don't know what settings will be changed. We recommend making a list of the settings that you know will be changed. We have started the list for you:

  • The router's main username and password
  • The Internet ID and password
  • If you use DSL you need to re-enter the ISP username and password. This information can be obtained by calling your Internet Service Provider.
  • Have you made any other changes to the router's interface? Have you forwarded any ports? Have you changed your DNS settings or router's IP address?

Use a VPN

Have you considered using a VPN when you connect to the internet? A VPN is a great way to increase your security and anonymity while surfing.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes securely sharing your home network super simple. 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 birthday deal!

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.

The first step is to know where the reset button is located on your router. Almost all routers have a "hard reset" button in order to revert all settings back to factory in the event that you have forgotten your IP address, username, or password to enter the router's graphical interface. For the Binatone WR1500N router the reset button is located on the front panel. See image below.

To reset the Binatone WR1500N router you need to hold this button down for a minimum of 5 seconds. Less time than that and all you have done is turned on the WPS function of your router. Make sure to hold down the reset button for at least 5 seconds.

Remember that a reset will erase every setting you have ever changed on your router and revert it back to factory defaults. Other options of troubleshooting should be tried before you decide to reset this router.

Login to the Binatone WR1500N

Now that you have finished resetting the Binatone WR1500N router you need to login to the device. To do this you need to know the factory default IP address, username, and password. We have this information for you in our Binatone WR1500N Login Guide.

Change Your Password

Once you have gained access to the Binatone WR1500N graphical interface pages you should first change your router's default password. Default passwords are not to be left alone as they are typically easy to guess or crack. Using our Choosing a Strong Password guide you can create a strong and memorable password for your router.

Tip: If this router is located in your place of residence go ahead and write the new password down on a sticky note and attach it to the bottom of the router for the next time you need to access your router.

Setup WiFi on the Binatone WR1500N

Finally we need to address the WiFi section of your Binatone WR1500N router. The SSID/network identification, password, and security method are all returned to factory defaults.
