Q1. What should I do if I can’t access the web management page?

• If the computer is set to a static IP, 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.

• Use another web browser and try again.

• Reboot your router and try again.

• Disable and enable the network adapter in use.

Q2. What should I do if I can’t access the internet?

• Check if the internet is working normally by connecting a computer directly to the modem via 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 Advanced > Network > Status to check whether the internet IP address is valid or not. If it is, please run the Quick Setup again; otherwise, check the hardware connection.
• Reboot your router and try again.

  Then reboot both the modem and the router.

Q3. What should I do if the router can’t be found via Bluetooth in Tether (how to reset the router)?
