I think I pressed really hard the reset button and now it's broken.
Is there any way i can open the back of this router?
@JaredBusch @scottalanmiller @nadnerB -
Whoops!

Any visible screws? This might easily be a "pop the tabs" style unit where you have to know where to press on it.

Hammers work well..
On a serious note, remove the feet. The case screws are generally under them.

There's no visible screw, only the four black rubber

Possible, but unlikely, that there are screws under the rubbers.

Extremely common. What ever gave you the idea that there are not? Most low end devices are this way. it costs too much (engineering time and production line) to do otherwise.

You DID reply.
And' it was almost as helpful as I could have been.

I successfully open the router, and the reset button is hiding in the other side

Oh wait, How will i reset this one if the reset button is already broken?

A button is a switch that completes a circuit when pressed. it is generally quite easy to manually cause a short across the pins where they connect to the board.
