Step 1

Log into the router’s web management page:

Step 1

Connect to your router via Wired or Wireless.

If Wireless: Make sure your client device is connected to your router’s wireless SSID. If using the Defaults, the SSID and Password are printed on your router label.

If Wired: Connect your client to your router via Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports (Yellow) on the back of your TP-Link router.

Step 2

Launch/open a web browser and enter http://tplinkwifi.net or http://192.168.0.1 in the address bar.

Step 3

There are two types of login pages that may pop up

Type 1: Requiring you to create an administrator password.

Type 2: requesting a username and password. By default, these are both the word ‘admin’ all lower case.

Troubleshooting:

If the login window does not appear, please try the following troubleshooting steps:

a. Reboot your router and try again.

b. If the computer is set to a static IP address, change its settings to obtain an IP address automatically.

c. 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.

d. Use another web browser and try again.

e. Disable and enable the network adapter being used

Step 2

Select Wireless->Wireless Settings on the left side menu to open the wireless setting page.

Wireless Network Name (also called SSID for some models): Create a new name for your wireless network. If you want to use the default TP-Link_****** wireless name, you can also leave it as default value.

Click Save button to save the settings.

Step 3

Select Wireless->Wireless Security on the left side menu. It’s recommended to use WPA/WPA2 Personal (Recommended).
