Here I will be explaining how to reset the Dlink EBR-2310v2 router back to it's original factory default settings. A reset like the one I will be explaining here is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you are simply cycling the power to the device. This is done by unplugging the power source, waiting about 30 seconds, and plugging the power back into it. When you reset this router you take all the settings and return them all to factory defaults.

Warning: This reset erases any change you have made to your device since owning it. We recommend making a list of any settings you may have changed. In this list you should have:

  • The router's main access username and password.
  • any port forwards you have done or IP addresses you have changed.

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.

Where is that little reset button/hole? I have circled it's location for you in the image below.

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

While the router is turned on, take a straightened paperclip and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. If you don't hold this button down for long enough you might end up only rebooting it instead of resetting it.

Please don't forget that a reset like the one you are doing here is going to erase every setting you have ever changed. We recommend trying other methods of troubleshooting before you continue.

Login to the Dlink EBR-2310

After you've successfully reset the Dlink EBR-2310v2 router you'll need to log into it. Do this by using the factory default username and password provided for your use in our Login Guide.

Tip: Defaults not working for you? Try holding the reset button down for longer.

Change Your Password

Once you've logged into your router we strongly suggest setting a new password for it. This can be anything you want it to be however bear in mind that a strong password is 14-20 characters in length and contains no personal information. For more help take a look through our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

Tip: Afraid of losing your new password? Try writing it on a sticky note and putting it on the underside of your router.
