Have you tried to login to the Hama 62726 router and been unable to do so? If this sounds familiar you may need to reset the Hama 62726 router. This is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you simply cycle the power to the router. When I reset a router you take all the settings and return them to factory defaults.

Warning: This reset is going to erase every setting you have ever changed. We strongly recommend making a list of settings you may of changed in the past. Some of these will include:

  • The router's main username and password.
  • The WiFi information such as SSID and password.
  • If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP or Internet Service Provider username and password. Call your ISP for the details.
  • If you have ever made any other changes to this device write these down as well.

While the router is 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 amount of time you end up only rebooting the device instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Remember a reset like this one is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed on the device. To try and avoid this you need to try other troubleshooting methods before you continue with this reset.

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

Following that we recommend setting a new password for your router. This can be whatever you like, however bear in mind that a strong password is 14-20 characters in length and includes no personal information.
