D-Link DIR-615 Wireless Router Logo
Anonymous Posted on Feb 06, 2011

I had this wireless connection as secured with password. I forgot my password so I wanted to reinstall it. So when I started it asked me if I wanted to proceed without a password and without thinking I said ok but now I cannot reinstall it for a secured network. How can I fix this? I sure hope you can help me.

Connect an ethernet cable to your router from pc. open IE, type 192.168.0.1 , it will ask for a user name and password, once you enter your user name and password, it will pull up the DLINK software, GUI. where you can go to wireless settings and change it to secured network. if you dont know your username and password, follow this steps:
Step 1 With the unit on, place a paper clip into the hole on the back on the unit labeled Reset.

I had this wireless connection as secured with - reset.gif

Step 2 Hold paper clip down for 10 seconds and release.

Note: Do not repower unit during this procedure.

Step 3 The unit will reboot on its own. Once the WLAN light stops blinking, the unit is reset.

Resetting the router does not reset the firmware to an earlier version. It will change all settings back to factory defaults.

Note: The factory defaults username is admin
, and there is no password.

    Step 1: Open your web browser and type in the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1 by default).



    Step 2: Enter the username (admin) and password (blank by default), and then click Ok or Log In .







      How do I find my routers IP Address, in Windows XP?

      How do I reset my router back to the factory default settings?

      (NOTE: To reach the configuration page of your D-Link router in Mac OS, you will need to use a Java compatible browser such as Firefox or Camino.)

      (NOTE: Some routers have a "Captcha" graphical login option. This option can be disabled in the advanced options of the routers configuration.)

Forgot my network security key

If you forgot the security key to your wireless connection, connect your pc (or mac!) to the router with an ethernet cord. In the web browser (like internet explorer, firefox, etc) type in 192.168.1.1- you should get a prompt asking for user name and password- by default the user name is admin and the password has nothing- that should get you into the router. Once there, click on the link for wireless and then wireless security- your network key would be listed right there.

Forgot my security password (network key)I need to

Logon to your router from your computer using your browser and going to http://192.168.1.2/. If it wants a username, the default username is blank and the default password is either blank or "password".


The Belkin management tool will come up. From there, go into your security and look to see if your passphrase is visible. If it is, you're good to go. If not, you can change it on that page save it and close out.
Don't forget to change the passphrase on any wireless devices you are using connected to the Belkin wireless router.
