Have you ever tried to login to the Huawei B315s-936 router and not been able to do so? It might be time to consider a reset.

In this guide when I say a reset I do not mean a reboot. A reboot is a cycle in the power to the unit. A reset is a complete factory restore of all settings.

Warning: Resetting this router is a big step and shouldn't be done until you have thought of the possible consequences. Some of the settings that are going to change are:

  • The router's main username and password.
  • The wireless information such as SSID and Internet password.
  • If you have a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP (Internet Service Provider) username and password. Call your local ISP for these details.
  • If you have made any other setting changes you need to reconfigure them after the reset is finished as well.

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.

As you can see from the image below I have circled the reset button/pinhole on the back panel of the unit. Go ahead and locate it on the router you are about to reset.

This is the reset page from your Huawei B315s-936 router.

First of all, make sure the Huawei B315s-936 router is turned on.

Take a small sharp object like a straightened paperclip and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds to be sure you begin the reset process. If you don't hold this button down for the entire amount of time it's possible to only reboot the router instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Don't forget a reset like this one is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed on this device. We strongly recommend that you try other troubleshooting methods before you continue with a reset.

Login to the Huawei B315s-936

Once you've reset the Huawei B315s-936 router you'll need to log into it. This is done by using the factory default username and password. Not sure where you can find these? We have them listed for your use in our Login Guide.

Tip: If the defaults aren't working for you it could be because the reset button wasn't held down for long enough.

Change Your Password

Following that we recommend setting a new password for your router. This can be whatever you like, 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 take a look through our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

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

Setup WiFi on the Huawei B315s-936

It is now time to begin the reconfiguration process. One important aspect you need to reset as soon as possible is the WiFi settings. We have a great easy to read guide for you if you are interested. Check it out here in our Huawei B315s-936 WiFi Instructions.
