Have you been trying to login to the KEEBOX W150NR router interface but been unable to do so? It might be time to consider a reset. The type of reset I will be explaining in this guide is not simply a reboot but a factory default reset. A reboot is simply a way of cycling the power to the device. A factory reset takes all the settings you have changed in the past and returns them all to how they were when they left the factory.

Warning: A factory reset is a big step and should be taken as such. A factory reset should only be done after you have exhausted your other options. It's also a good idea to make a list of all the settings you may of changed in the past. These settings will include:

  • If this is a DSL router you will need to re-enter the Internet Service Provider (ISP) username and password. Call your local ISP for these details.
  • The router's main username and password used to access the interface.
  • The network SSID and password.
  • Any other settings such as 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.

Take a look at the image below. I have circled the location of the reset button.

This is the reset page from your KEEBOX W150NR router.

While the router is on take a small sharp object such as a straight paperclip and press down on the reset button for at least 10 seconds. This begins the reset process. Be patient this could take a couple minutes to complete.

Warning: Do not unplug or turn off the device during the actual reset process. Doing so could result in permanent damage to the unit.

Remember a reset is a big step and erases all previously configured settings. Please consider other options first.

Login to the KEEBOX W150NR

Once the reset is finished login to the KEEBOX W150NR router. To do this you need to use the default values. I have found these for you and included them in our KEEBOX W150NR Login Guide.

Tip: Did the default values not work? You may of only rebooted the system. Try the reset again but make sure to hold the reset button down for a little longer this time.

Change Your Password

It is always a good idea to change the default passwords as soon as possible. For a little extra help use our Choosing a Strong Password guide.

Tip: Don't lose this password. Try writing it on a sticky-note and attaching it to the bottom of the router for future reference.

Setup WiFi on the KEEBOX W150NR

Finally I want to link you to our KEEBOX W150NR WiFi Instructions. Don't forget to setup the router's wireless settings as these have been erased as well during the reset.
