Need Help?
Q1. What should I do if I cannot access the web management page?
Reboot your router and try again.
If the computer is set to a static IP address, change its settings to obtain an IP
address automatically.
Verify that http://tplinkwifi.net is correctly entered in the web browser. Alternatively,
enter http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 in the web browser and press Enter.
Use another web browser and try again.
Disable and enable the network adapter being used.
Q2. What should I do if I cannot access the internet?
Reboot your modem and router, then try again.
Check if the internet is working normally by connecting a computer directly to the
modem using an Ethernet cable. If it is not, contact your internet service provider.
Log in to the web management page of the router, and go to the Network Map to
check whether the internet IP address is valid or not. If it is not, check the hardware
connection or contact your internet service provider.
For cable modem users, log in to the web management page of the router. Go to
Advanced > Network > Internet > MAC Clone, select Clone Current Device MAC
and click Save. Then reboot both the modem and the router.
Q3. How do I restore the router to its factory default settings?
With the router powered on, use a pin to press and hold the RESET button on the
back until all LEDs turn off.
Log in to the web management page of the router, go to Advanced > System >
Backup & Restore > Factory Default 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 it.
Alternatively, refer to Q3 to reset your router, then visit http://tplinkwi.net to
create a new login password.
Q5. What should I do if I forget my wireless network password?
If you have not changed the default wireless password, it can be found on the
label at the bottom of the router.
Connect a computer directly to the router using an Ethernet cable. Log in to the
router’s web management page at http://tplinkwi.net, and go to Wireless >
Wireless Settings to retrieve or reset your wireless password.
