Have you tried to login to the Flying Voice G801 router and are unable to do so. You may need to reset the Flying Voice G801 router.

Due to the overuse of the word reset you may not know exactly what a reset is. Router manufacturers and guide writers tend to use this word to mean a factory restore and a reboot all at the same time. In this guide when I use the word reset I am only referring to a factory restore of all settings. I will also use the word reboot to mean a cycle in the power to the unit. A reboot does not change any settings.

Warning: A factory reset is a big step and should not be taken lightly. Some of the settings that will be changed when you reset the Flying Voice G801 router are:

  • The router's main username and password.
  • The Internet information such as network name and password.
  • Do you have a DSL router? If so you need to re-enter the ISP or Internet Service Provider username and password. Call your local ISP for the details.
  • Any other settings such as port forwards, IP addresses, DNS settings, etc. will need to be reconfigured 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 located on the outside of the Flying Voice G801 router? Below is an image of the back panel. I have circled the reset button in red for you.

This is the reset page from your Flying Voice G801 router.

With the Flying Voice G801 router turned on, take a straightened paperclip or pen and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. This begins the reset process. If you don't hold this reset button down for the entire amount of time you may end up rebooting the device instead of resetting it like you intended.

Don't forget that this reset is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed on the Flying Voice G801 router in the past. We strongly recommend trying other methods of troubleshooting before deciding a reset is your best option.

Login to the Flying Voice G801

Now that you've reset your Flying Voice G801 router you'll need to log into it. This is done by using the factory default username and password. We have these provided 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

After 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 is 14-20 characters in length and includes no personal information. For more help be sure to check out our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

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