If you have tried to login to the LB-Link BL-WR3000 router without success it might be time to consider a reset. There is a lot of confusion about what a reset actually is. It can mean both a reboot and a factory restore. In this guide when I use the word reset I am referring to a complete factory restore of all settings. A reboot is simply a cycle in the power to the unit.

Warning: Resetting this router is a big step and you should not take it lightly. Please consider other options first. We also recommend making a list of all the settings you have ever changed in the past. These include:

  • The router's main interface username and password.
  • The SSID and Internet password.
  • If this is a DSL router you need to re-enter the ISP or Internet Service Provider username and password. You need to contact your local DSL provider for this information.
  • Have you made any other changes to your router? How about port forwards or IP address changes? All these settings will be erased during a reset.

Use a VPN

Have you considered using a VPN when you connect to the internet? A VPN is a great way to increase your security and anonymity while surfing.

We use and recommend NordVPN because not only is it the fastest VPN, it includes a new feature called Meshnet that makes securely sharing your home network super simple. 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.

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 LB-Link BL-WR3000 router.

While the router is on take a straightened paperclip or other sharp object and press down on the reset button for at least 8 seconds. If you don't hold the reset button down for a minimum of 8 seconds you might end up only rebooting the router instead of resetting it like you wanted.

Warning: Do not unplug or turn off the LB-Link BL-WR3000 router during the reset process. Doing so may result in permanent damage to the device.

Don't forget a reset like this erases every setting you have changed in the device. It is a good idea to exhaust your other troubleshooting methods before deciding to reset.

Login to the LB-Link BL-WR3000

Now that you've successfully reset your LB-Link BL-WR3000 router you'll want to log into it. This is accomplished by using the factory default username and password. Not sure 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

Once you've successfully reset and logged into your router you'll want to set a new password for it. This can be whatever you like, however bear in mind that a strong password is 14-20 characters in length and include no personal information. 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 sticky note and attaching it to the bottom of your router.
