Have you tried to login to the EnGenius ESR-9753 router and been unable to? Have you have tried all the possible default passwords and still can't seem to login? You may need to reset the EnGenius ESR-9753 router. This reset is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot this router it simply cycles the power to the unit, changing nothing. When you reset this router you take all the changed settings and reverts every one of them back to how they were from the factory.
Warning: This erases every single setting you have ever changed on this device. You need to try all other options before deciding to reset the EnGenius ESR-9753 router. It is helpful to make a list of all possible settings you have changed in the past such as:
- The router's main username and password.
- WiFi information such as network name and Internet password.
- If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP (Internet Service Provider) username and password. If you don't do this you won't be able to use the Internet. Call your local ISP for the details.
- Don't forget changes such as port forwards and IP addresses.

Reset the EnGenius ESR 9753
The very first step in a reset is to find the reset button on the outside of the device itself. Take a look at the image below. I have circled the reset button in red for you.
With the router 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 the entire 10 seconds you end up only rebooting the EnGenius ESR-9753 router instead of resetting it like you wanted.
It's important to remember a reset like this one is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed. It's a very good idea to exhaust your other troubleshooting options first.
Login to the EnGenius ESR 9753
Following that we need to log into your EnGenius ESR-9753 router. This is accomplished by using the factory default username and password listed for your use in our Login Guide.
Tip: Defaults not 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 recommend setting a new password for it. This can be anything you want it to be, however keep in mind that a strong password consists of 14-20 characters in length and includes no personal information. For more help be sure to take a look through our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.
Tip: Prevent yourself from losing your new password by writing it on a sticky note and attaching it to the bottom of your router.
