  1. With the help of a paper clip or a pin press and hold the Reset button for 10seconds, located generally on the back of your router. Release the Reset button after 10 seconds.
  2. The router will not reboot. Wait for about a minute. Now enter the default IP address of the router on your web browser 168.0.1and leave the password blank.

NOTE: In case you are connecting wirelessly, then you have to reconnect your device to the default wireless network, once the router reboots. The default Wi-Fi network or password may be printed on the label provided on the bottom of your router or on the included Wi-Fi Configuration Card (for the newer models).

Reconfiguring Your D-link Router

  3. I am facing slow webpage loading speeds on DIR-890L when I use it with some mobile devices. How can I fix it?

You may face this issue with some of the mobile devices when you connect them with the D-Link DIR-890L over wi-fi. This problem is faced by certain consumers. The solution is to disable IPv6 on your Wide Area Network (WAN) port. For this follow the instructions described below.

CAUTION: This will be possible if you are currently accessing the Internet using IPv4 addressing.

  1. on your computer open the web browser and type the default IP address of the router that is http://192.168.0.1 or type the friendly DNS name (FDNS) in the address bar that is “http://dlinkrouter.local”.
  2. on the login window enter the password (default password is blank). Use the password set at the initial installation to log in to a previously configured D-Link router.
  3. Under the settings option, click on Internet
  4. Select the IPv6
  5. Select pull-down menu from My internet connection for Local connectivity only.
  6. Click on Save to save your settings. Your router will reconfigure the internet settings and IPv6 will be removed from the WAN port of your router. When you make these changes the Internet will be disconnected momentarily until it completes the changes.
  7. When your router has completed the changes, you can verify it by testing your mobile device’s load speed of web pages and monitor the improvement.
