How to login to your TP-Link Router
If you are looking to get your TP Link default password and router settings you have come to the right place. This guide will help you gain access to your TP-Link routers admin panel.
Follow the simple 2 steps below to access the TP Link admin panel of your TP-Link Router.
Step 1.
Open a web browser and type http://192.168.1.1 into the address bar. This is the default IP of the router.
Step 2.
Type the username and password in the login page. The default username and password for TP Link routers is admin/admin in lowercase.

About TP-Link
TP-Link is the largest consumer Wi-Fi vendor by unit volume, selling the Archer, Deco and TL- lines. The TP-Link records here run across the Archer and Omada lines.
Reaching the login page
The admin page on most TP-Link units answers at http://192.168.0.1, or at tplinkwifi.net if the router is handling your DNS. If that address does not load, the router is whatever your computer lists as its default gateway — ipconfig on Windows or ipconfig getoption en0 router on a Mac will tell you.
Older TL- models answer on 192.168.1.1. Since roughly 2019 TP-Link has asked you to create a password on first boot rather than shipping with admin/admin.
What the TP-Link defaults look like
admin is the username on 6 of the 11 entries. 2 of them ask for no username at all. Where one is set, admin comes up most often, on 6 entries.
3 of them are reached over a protocol that puts the password on the wire in clear text, so work from a machine on the same wired network rather than across the internet, and change the password once you are in.
If the TP-Link password has already been changed
Hold the Reset or WPS/Reset button for ten seconds until the LEDs blink.
A reset clears more than the password. The Wi-Fi name and key go back to what is printed on the label, port forwards and firewall rules are discarded, and any static addressing is lost. Photograph the settings pages first — it takes two minutes and saves an evening.
