Have you been trying to login to the iBall iB-WRB150N router without success? It might be time to consider a reset. This reset is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot this router you are only cycling the power to the device. When you reset this device you are taking all the settings and returning them all to how they were when the router left the factory.

Warning: Resetting this router is a big step and should not be taken lightly. We strongly recommend trying other troubleshooting methods before you decide to reset. It is also extremely helpful if you create a list of all the settings you may of changed in the past such as:

  • The router's primary access username and password.
  • The WiFi username and password.
  • If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the Internet Service Provider (ISP) username and password. This can be found by calling your ISP for the details.
  • If you have made any other changes to the router you need to write these down 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 faster than ever deal!

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.

This is the reset page from your iBall iB-WRB150N router.

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 router instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Warning: This reset can take several minutes to complete. Do not under any circumstances unplug the router during this process. You could permanently damage the router if you do.

Login to the iBall iB-WRB150N

Following that you'll want to log into your iBall iB-WRB150N router. This is accomplished 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? Not to worry. The reset button may not have been held down for long enough.

Change Your Password

After you've successfully reset and logged into your router we suggest setting a new password for it. Bear in mind that this password will only protect your router settings, and not your wireless network. Still, setting a strong password is always a wise choice. For more help be sure to take a look through our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

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