If you have tried to login to the Kasda KW5815A router's interface and been unable to do so it might be time to consider a reset. A reset is not the same thing as a reboot. A reboot is only a cycle in the power to the unit. No settings are changed during a reboot. A reset on the other hand takes all the settings you have ever changed and reverts them back to factory defaults.

Warning: Resetting the Kasda KW5815A router is a big step and should not be taken lightly. It's a good idea to try other troubleshooting methods before you decide to reset the router. It is helpful to make a list of all the settings you may of changed in the past such as:

  • The router interface username and password.
  • The WiFi SSID and Internet 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 these details.
  • Have you made any other changes to this device? How about port forwards or IP address changes?

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.

This is the reset page from your Kasda KW5815A router.

While the router is on, take a straightened paperclip and press down on the reset button for about 10 seconds. This begins the reset process which can take several minutes to complete.

Warning: Once the reset process has begun do not unplug or turn off the router. Doing so could result in permanent damage to the router.

Remember this reset erases every setting you have ever changed during the router's lifetime. We strongly encourage you to try other methods of troubleshooting before you continue with this reset.

Login to the Kasda KW5815A

After a successful reset you need to login to the Kasda KW5815A router interface. When doing this after a reset make sure to use the default username and password found in our Kasda KW5815A Login Guide.

Tip: If the defaults didn't work it might be that you didn't hold the reset button down for long enough. Go ahead and try again but hold the reset button down for a few more seconds.

Change Your Password

Now is a great time to change that default router password. While this router password only protects the router settings it is still an important password. Use our Choosing a Strong Password guide for help if you need it.

Tip: Do you want a way to avoid losing this password? Try writing it down on a sticky note and attaching it to the bottom of the router.
