Have you changed the username and/or password of your Handlink router and forgotten what you changed it to?
Don't worry: all Handlink routers come with a default factory set password that you can revert to by following the instructions below.

- While still holding the reset button pressed, unplug the power of the router and hold the reset button for another 30 seconds
- While still holding the reset button down, turn on the power to the unit again and hold for another 30 seconds.
Your Handlink router should now be reset to its brand new factory settings, Check the table to see what those are (Most likely admin/admin).
