If you have been trying to login to the Inteno DG150B router and been unable to do so you might need to consider a reset. A reset like this one is not the same thing as a reboot. When you reboot a router you cycle the power to the device. When you reset a router you take all the settings you have changed and reverts them back to how they were from the factory.

Warning: Resetting the router is a big step and should be taken seriously. We recommend creating a list of the possible settings that have been changed in the past. Some of the most common settings are:

  • The router's main username and password.
  • The WiFi username and password.
  • Any port forwards you have created or IP addresses you have changed.
  • If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the Internet Service Provider (ISP) username and password. You need to do this in order to use the Internet again. Call your local ISP for the details.

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.

Below is an image of the back panel of the Inteno DG150B router. Notice where the reset button is located. I have circled it for you in red.

This is the reset page from your Inteno DG150B router.

While the router remains on take a straightened paperclip and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. If you don't hold this reset button down for the entire 10 seconds you might end up only rebooting the router instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Warning: Do not unplug or turn off the router during the reset process. If you do you may end up permanently damaging the device.

Remember a reset like this one is going to erase every single setting you have ever changed on this device. We strongly recommend trying other methods of troubleshooting before you continue.

Login to the Inteno DG150B

Following that you'll want to log into your router. This is done by using the factory default username and password. If you're not sure where to find these, don't panic. We have them listed for your use in our Login Guide.

Tip: Defaults not working for you? It might be because the reset button wasn't held down for long enough.

Change Your Password

Now that you've logged into your router we suggest setting a new password for it. This can be whatever you like, however keep in mind that a strong password is 14-20 characters in length. For more help be sure to take a look through our Choosing a Strong Password Guide.

Tip: Prevent yourself from losing your new password by writing it on aj slip of paper and taping it to the bottom of your router.

When you are finished with all of that you need to begin the reconfiguration process. This needs to include the WiFi settings. For a great guide on the topic read our Inteno DG150B WiFi Instructions.
