Step 1 Turn off the router.
Step 2 Press and hold the reset button on the back panel with a pin and then turn on the router. (Do not release the reset button after turning on the router and hold the button for about 6 ~ 10 seconds after turning on the router.)
Step 3 Release the reset button and wait for the device to restart.
Attention, please:
Make sure that the router is powered on before restarting completely.
The default IP address is 192.168.1.1 and the default username and password for login is admin (all lower case).
3. make sure that your computer's IP address is on the same subnet as the device. This means that your computer should have an IP address of 192.168.1.X (X is in the range 2 ~ 253) and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.255.0, the default gateway should have an IP address of 192.168.1.1, which is the IP address of the router.
Step 1 Open a web browser window, enter the router's LAN IP address into the address field (default value is 192.168.1.1). Then press the Enter key.
Step 2 To log in to the device's configuration page, enter the user name and password (the default value of both fields is: admin).
NOTE:
If server error -401 is displayed, it means that an incorrect username or password has been entered.
