Log In to a TP-Link Router

To log into a TP-Link router, you need:

3. The correct admin username and password.

Open a browser, enter the router IP or the alternative domain tplinkwifi.net, and log in using your credentials to access the admin dashboard.

How to Find Your Router's Correct IP Address

Check the Router Label

Most TP-Link routers have a sticker with the default IP address and login credentials.

Use Windows (ipconfig)

1. Open Command Prompt.
   
   

2. Type ipconfig and press Enter.
   
   

3. Look for Default Gateway under your active network.
   
   

Use macOS Network Settings

1. Open System Preferences → Network.
   
   

2. Select your active network → Advanced → TCP/IP tab.
   
   

3. Note the router address listed as Router.
   
   

Use Mobile Device Gateway Lookup

• Android: Settings → Wi-Fi → Connected network → Gateway
  
  

• iOS: Settings → Wi-Fi → Tap the info icon → Router
  
  

Alternative Domain: tplinkwifi.net

This domain works for newer TP-Link routers instead of entering the IP address.
