  1. First you have to download firmware to your computer. You can download the firmware here. For GL-AR300M, GL-AR300M-Ext, GL-AR750S-Ext, please download the .img firmware file. For GL-B1300, GL-S1300, please download the .img firmware. Everyone else, download the .bin firmware file.
  2. Connect your computer to the Ethernet port (either LAN or WAN) of the router. You MUST leave the other port unconnected .
  3. Press and hold the Reset button firmly first, and then power on your device. (If your device does not have a power button, plugging it in will power it on automatically.)
  4. The Power LED will light up. Then, other LEDs will start flashing.
  5. Release your finger when you see the LED has flashed:
  • 6 times for GL-MiFi, and then the LTE light will faintly flash twice.
  • 5 times for GL-AR150, GL-AR300M, GL-USB150, GL-AR750, GL-AR750S-Ext (Slate), GL-X750-Ext (Spitz), GL-MT300N-V2.
  • 4 times for GL-S1300, GL-B1300.

The leftmost LED may stay on the whole time while the rightmost LED flashes 4 times, then the middle LED turns on and stays on.

(For some old GL-B1300, the leftmost LED stays on the whole time, and both the middle LED and the rightmost LED flash 5 times at the same time then they stay on.)

  • 3 times for GL-MT300N, GL-MT300A.
