  1. Try to reset the router (hold down the "RESET" button on the back of the router for 5-10 seconds BUT NOT LONGER!!!).  This should reset to factory default and you will be promted to reset your admin password.  Then you'll have to reconfigure the router.
  2. If that doesn't work, go to the D-Link website and grab the latest firmware (http://www.dlink.com/us/en/home-solutions/support/product/dir-615-wireless-n-300-router) for your hardware revision. 
  3. [MUST BE DONE VIA ETHERNET CONNECTION, NOT WIRELESS] Then, hold down the reset button for 30 seconds.  Change your ethernet address to be
    1. Address: 192.168.0.2
    2. Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
    3. Gateway: 192.168.0.1
  4. Then go to 192.168.0.1 and select the firmware you downloaded.  Once you click accept, give the router 5 minutes before you do anything on either computer!!!  Then unplug the router, plug it back in and you're back at factory defaults with the latest firmware
