On this page I will be showing you how to reset the Dynamode BR-6004W-G2M router back to factory defaults. A lot of people confuse the words reset and reboot. When you reboot a router you cycle the power to the unit. When you reset this router you will be erasing every single setting you have ever changed and returning them to factory defaults.

Warning: A reset like the one you are doing here is a big step and shouldn't be taken lightly. Take the time to make a list of any settings you have changed in the past. The following list contains some of the more commonly changed settings.

  • The router's interface username and password.
  • The Internet name and password.
  • If you are resetting a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP or Internet Service Provider username and password. Call your ISP for this information.
  • Other possibilities are port forwards, and IP address changes.

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 located? Below is a picture of a similar router. Take a look at where this reset button is located and see if you can find yours on the Dynamode BR-6004W-G2M router. This reset button is typically a recessed hole to avoid accidental resets.

This is the reset page from your Dynamode BR6004W-G2M router.

Once you have located the reset button you need to take a straightened paperclip and press down on the button for about 10 seconds. Do this while the router is on. If you don't hold this button down for long enough you might end up only rebooting the device instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Please remember a reset like this one is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed on this unit. We strongly recommend exhausting your other troubleshooting methods first.

Login to the Dynamode BR6004W-G2M

Following that you'll need to log into your Dynamode BR-6004W-G2M router. Do this by using the factory default username and password. Not sure where to get these? We have them provided 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

Once you've logged into your router we suggest setting a new password for it. This can be whatever you want it to be, however keep in mind that this password will only protect your router settings, not your wireless network. All the same, setting a strong password is always a good idea. For help in doing so 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 attaching it to the bottom of your router.
