If after several tries you are still unable to login to the Huawei B593v2 router you may need to consider a reset.

Be aware that when I use the term reset I do not mean a reboot. When you reboot a router you cycle the power to the unit. When you reset a router you take all the settings and return every single one of them back to how they were from the factory.

Warning: This reset erases every single setting you have ever changed on the Huawei B593v2 router. Some of the settings that will be affected are:

  • The router's main username and password.
  • The wireless information such as SSID and Internet password.
  • If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP (Internet Service Provider) username and password. You need to call your local ISP for these details.
  • Have you forwarded any ports or changed any IP addresses? These are also erased.

First, be sure the router is on. Then take a bent paperclip and press down on the reset button for at least 7 seconds. This begins the reset process which can take a couple of minutes to complete. If you don't hold the reset button down for long enough you will end up only rebooting the device instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Remember a reset like this erases every single setting you have ever changed in the history of the router. We strongly encourage you to try other troubleshooting methods before you decide to reset the Huawei B593v2 router.

Login to the Huawei B593v2

Once you've successfully reset the Huawei B593v2 router you should log into it. This is accomplished by using the factory default username and password. Don't know 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 might be because the reset button wasn't held down for long enough.

Change Your Password

Following that you'll need to set a new password for your router. This can be anything you like, however bear in mind that a strong password is 14-20 characters in length and includes no personal information. For more help be sure to visit our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

Tip: Prevent yourself from losing your new password by writing it on a sticky note and putting it on the underside of your router.
