Q1. What should I do if I cannot access the web management page?

Q2. What should I do if I cannot access the internet?
Check if you have an internet connection by connecting a computer directly to the
modem using an Ethernet cable. If you don’t, contact your internet service provider.
Log in to the web management page of the router, and go to the Basic > Network Map
page to check whether the internet IP address is valid or not. If it is, please run the Quick
Setup again; otherwise, recheck the hardware connection.
For cable modem users, log in to the web management page of the router. Go to
Advanced > Network > Internet > MAC Clone, click Use Current Computer MAC
Address and click Save, then reboot both the modem and the router.
Reboot your router and try again.

While the router is powered on, use a pin to press and hold the Reset button on the side
panel until all LEDs go off, then release the button.
Log in to the web management page of the router. Go to Advanced > System Tools >
Backup & Restore, and click Factory Restore. The router will restore and reboot
automatically.
Q4. What should I do if I forget my web management page password?
If you are using a TP-Link ID to log in, click Forgot password on the login page and then
follow the instructions to reset the password.
Alternatively, refer to FAQ > Q3 to reset the router. Wait for the Power and Wi-Fi LEDs to
turn solid on, then visit http://tplinkwifi.net to create a new login password.
