How to restore D-Link DIR-300 router to factory defaults

Yes apparently the DIR 412 comes with a reset button on the back which will restore it back to factory settings (the settings it came with originally) There's details on the reset procedure in the routers manual, if you haven't got one here's a link to an online manual for it: ftp://files.dlink.com.au/products/DIR-412/Manuals/DIR-412_A1_Manual_v1.10(I).pdf You'll want the troubleshooting section near the back of the manual.

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

The default user id is: admin and the password is left blank. Once you get into the router go to the wireless setup or tab.

Below is a pdf manual of your router.

If you have changed it and don't remember it you may have to reset your device to factory default using the reset button on most routers.

The default IP for the DIR-300 is 192.168.0.1. First, make sure you're entering "http://192.168.0.1" in your browser's address bar. In some browsers, if you try entering just the numbers, it won't work.

If you can't access the setup page at all, that address may have been changed. If this is the case, or you can't log in because you don't remember the username and password, you should reset the router which will restore the factory defaults.Press the recessed rear-panel reset button and hold it in for 10 seconds. Release it and the router will restart. The defualt IP (192.168.0.1) and username and password (both admin) will be restored.

Pressing the reset button on the back restores the router to factory default
Login admin
Password admin or just hit return

You will then need to reconfigure it

if that doesnt work you will need to reset the router to factory settings

to reset the D-Link to the Factory Default Settings, please follow these steps:

1. Turn off the router

2. Locate the Reset button on the back of the router.

3. Use a paper clip to press the Reset button and power on.

4. Hold for about 5 seconds (don't hold too long) and then release. (Or, release when M1 and M2 flash at the same time.)

5. After you have completed the above steps, the router will be reset to the factory default settings

Log on as admin to your router. Goto tools then system and you will see the reset factory options button.

there's an easy way to reset your router back to its factory setting... inspect the physical appearance of your router... there should be s small hole.... inside that small hole is a reset button

How to reset? ..... while the router is on...Using a small pointing object, much better if you use a paper clip..... insert the paper clip to the hole... press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds...

That's it your router will restart itself and the settings is back to its factory settings...


Hope that help you..
Much appreciated if you rate this help... thanks

Most routers have a small button somewhere on them in order to reset to default setting,look carefully around and you will see it.

You can press the reset button on the DIR-635 which will reset the device back to it's factory defaults. Then connect using the factory default user id and password. (ID: Admin password is blank)
