How To Reset The Rt-acrh13 Default Password When Your Login Account Is Available?
This is a typical method when your current login information is available. Typically, each router will provide the special router’s access page for changing configuration that includes the password set up.
First thing first, you need to access the router page by using your browser( google chrome, edge, or any browser you want). In my experience, you should use google chrome for this process because it works well for most of the router page.
Next, type the IP address you got above into the searching bar. Be careful, this page only works when you type exactly information. So don’t be mistaken!
Now, you will see the small window appear that requires your login information. Fill in the suitable blank and click on OK.

It is a bit strange, isn’t it? Frankly speaking, the interface of this router is designed to be more professional than other models. However, it makes you in hot water in the first login. So, you should be careful in this step to avoid any software problems.
In the advanced setting menu, click on the Administration tab. In the next window. Finding for the ‘’Restore/Save/Upload Setting” selection.
On the factory default, select the Restore option and the process will automatically recover, or if it is prompted, just click OK.
Well, you have back the router password to the factory setting, don’t forget to note the default password I provided above for the next login. However, the disadvantages of this method are required login information. In case nothing is available, please ignore it.
Reset The Default Password When You Lose The Login Account
Using the reset button
This is the latest method when you miss all of your login information. It also is a fairly simple step. However, setting the router password by the reset button will change all of the router configurations back to the defaults. So, ensure you actually want to use this method.
Let’s check some router configuration that will be changed below:
- Actually, the login information will be back to the default first which includes your username and password.
- Second is your wifi password
- Next, all of your firmware updates will be reset. Don’t worry I also give you a detailed guide to update them.
Now, if you got every note about this method, your job right now is taking your router and find the reset button in the back. Be careful, the reset button is entirely different from the reboot button.
Locate this button by the ‘’RESET’’ word and you can easily see the small hole.
Now, you must have something small and sharp, I think a paper clip is an idea for it. Press down and hold for 10 seconds to reset your device. In case you don’t see any response, try again and keep holding until the light changes.
*Serious warning: During the reset process, you shouldn’t unplug or turn off the router because it can permanently damage your device.
Update the Firmware
As you know, resetting the router password will delete all of your updated versions. Therefore, the first thing you need to do is update your firmware to avoid any software problem.
Now, return the rt-acrh13 page by typing the IP address into your browser. In the login window, remember to use the default password ‘’admin’’ for both username and password.
After that, select the Administration tab and choose the Firmware Upgrade tab. In the next window, you can check your firmware version by clicking the ‘’Check’’ button.
Wait for it to respond for a few seconds. If it doesn’t require any update, you can finish this process here.
In case it asks you if you want to update your firmware, click OK. When the notice appears that requires you to reboot the router, just find and press the reboot button in the back. The reboot process will take a few minutes until you see the light on.
Check the update again
In some cases, the update firmware can’t install due to some technical issues. So, to ensure your router is working smoothly, you must check it again. It doesn’t take much time.
Go back to the rt-acrh13 page and repeat all steps above. In the firmware update tab, click Check again.
If it notifies that ‘’this is the latest version’’, you have done your work of resetting the rt-acrh13 default password.
On the contract, if you don’t see any response, please try it again or give your router to the IT staff because most likely it has failed.
