This page will show you how to reset the Dlink EBR-2310 router back to it's original factory defaults. A reset like this is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you simply cycle the power to the device. When you reset a router you take all the settings and return them all to factory defaults.

Warning: A reset erases all settings you have ever changed on your device. Before starting this reset you should make a list of all the settings you may have changed in the lifetime of this router. Consider the following before continuing:

  • The router's access username and password are erased and put back to how they were from the factory.
  • If you have ever made any other changes to this device you should write them down so you remember to reconfigure them after the reset is complete.

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.

Do you know where the reset button is on your router? In the image below I have circled it's location for you in red.

This is the reset page from your Dlink EBR-2310 router.

Now, take a straightened paperclip and while the router is on press and hold the reset button for about 10 seconds. Make sure you hold it down for the entire 10 seconds because if you don't you might end up rebooting the router instead of resetting it.

Please remember that a reset like this erases all personal changes you have made to your router in it's lifetime. We strongly recommend trying other methods of troubleshooting before you continue.

Login to the Dlink EBR-2310

Now that you've reset your Dlink EBR-2310 router you'll want to log into it. Do this by using the factory default username and password. Don't know where to find these? Not to worry. We have them listed for you in our Login Guide.

Tip: If the defaults aren't logging you in it might be because the reset button wasn't held down for long enough.

Change Your Password

Following that we suggest setting a new password for your router. This can be whatever you want it to be, however keep in mind that a strong password is 14-20 characters in length and includes no personal information. For more help check out our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

Tip: Avoid losing your new password by writing it on a note and attaching it to the underside of your router.
