How to log in to your TP-Link router

Connect to the TP-Link network by Wi-Fi or cable.
Open tplinkwifi.net or 192.168.0.1 in Chrome, Firefox or Edge.
If the browser warns about the certificate, choose Advanced and continue. TP-Link uses a self-signed certificate.
Log in with your local password. If you linked the router to a TP-Link ID, sign in with that account instead.
Open Wireless to change the Wi-Fi name and password, then save.

Example router label: the web address, username and admin password are the lines you need to log in, and they are different from the Wi-Fi name and password — Illustration only, not a photo of a real product. The login details are usually on a label under the router.

If it will not open

Certificate warning: The warning appears because the router’s certificate is self-signed, not issued by a public authority. It is normal on your own router.
tplinkwifi.net shows an error: Use http://192.168.0.1 instead, or http://192.168.1.1 for a modem-router.
I forgot the local password: Use the TP-Link ID if one is linked. Otherwise a factory reset is needed. See the reset guide.
A search page opens instead of the router: Type http:// before the address, and type it in the address bar, not the search box.
The browser warns “not secure”: Many routers use plain http or a self-signed certificate, so the warning is normal on your own router. Do not click through it on public Wi-Fi.
Wrong username or password: The admin password is not your Wi-Fi password. Check the router label. If you changed it and forgot it, see the reset guide.
The page loads forever: A VPN, a proxy or a second router in between can block it. Turn off the VPN and try a LAN cable. If you put your own router behind the ISP one, the ISP router has a different address from your own.

How to keep your router secure

Change the default admin password and use a long one that you do not use anywhere else.
Keep the router firmware up to date.
Turn off remote management unless you really need it.
Use WPA2 or WPA3 for Wi-Fi.
