On this page we show you how to reset the Dlink DAP-1360 router back to it's original factory defaults. This is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you are simply cycling the power to the device. A reset is taking all the settings and returning them to factory defaults.
Warning: Resetting this router can cause problems for you if you don't completely understand what a reset will do. Please consider the following before continuing:
- This reset causes your router's setup username and password to be erased and it is restored to factory values.
- The factory reset wipes the Internet name and password you created and reverts it back to factory settings.
- If this is a DSL router your ISP username and password are erased. To continue using the Internet you need to re-enter these values. Call your Internet Service Provider for more details.
- Have you ever changed anything else on the Dlink DAP-1360 router? If so, write these down so you can set them up again after the reset process is complete.

Reset the Dlink DAP-1360
After you have read these warnings you need to find the reset button. This tiny recessed hole on the outside of your router is designed to be difficult to press. It also may be hard to find because of it's small size. We have circled it's location for you in the image below:
Take an unfolded paperclip or other similar object and press down on this reset button for about 10 seconds. This initiates the reset process. If you don't hold this button down for the entire amount of time you may end up only rebooting the router instead of resetting it like you wanted.
