• How to open the tp link router menu. Step-by-step instructions for connecting and setting up a TP-Link router

    You try to go to the setup menu of a router, modem or optical ONT terminal via http://192.168.1.1 and the “personal account” of the device does not open for you. What to do? Call a specialist and pay money? Take your time and don't get discouraged. Let's try to figure out the problem together and decide how to log into the router?!

    I think it's useful to know a little theory first:
    192.168.1.1 - this is the IP address (IP) network device. By default, the network is usually registered on routers: 192.168.1.0/24. In other words local network The first (lowest) address in the subnet is configured on the router - 1, and clients connected via the local network will use addresses with 2 By 254 . In general, this is a generally accepted rule and is configured this way for the vast majority of network devices - Zyxel Keenetic, Lincsys, Cisco, TP-Link, Upvel, Sagemcom, Asus. There are, of course, exceptions. For example, at D-Link routers and Netgear uses a different subnet by default – 192.168.0.0/24 and accordingly the IP will be - . But, whatever one may say, the numbers are different, but the meaning is the same - that IP 192.168.1.1, that 192.168.0.1 is the address of a network device on the network. In our case -

    How to log into the router

    Now let's move on to practice. To go into the settings of a WiFi router or ADSL modem, you must enter the address in the browser: http://192.168.1.1. In this case, you do not need to type the protocol at the beginning - http:// or www - the browser itself will automatically enter the required one.

    If you have access to the settings, you will see an authorization form on the device, where you will need to enter your login and password (usually to log into the router via 192.168.1.1 you use: admin / admin):

    This means that the local network is configured, the router is accessible and there are no problems with accessing its settings. We will consider the worst case scenario - the browser displays the error “Page is unavailable” or “Unable to access the site”:

    Web interface accessibility issues can vary. Let's look at the most common of them:

    Instructions on how to log in to 192.168.1.1.

    Step 1. Check the activity of the network connection.

    Very often, the reason for the router’s inaccessibility is the network cable disconnected from it.

    In this case, it is not necessary that someone pulled out the cable intentionally - the connector can simply move a millimeter away from the network card connector and nothing will work. Be sure to check the integrity of the cable - it may be pinched somewhere or damaged by something. Please also note that the LAN cable must be connected to the LAN port of the device and not to the WAN port.

    Otherwise, you will not be able to access 192.168.1.1 through the WAN port. This port is used to connect the provider cable. And that's all!

    Step 2: Check the network indicators.

    Here I mean indicators physical connection both on the computer’s network card and on the router itself. What are they? Typically this is a green LED. If the network is active, the indicator lights up or blinks quickly. We take your device in our hands and look at the front panel. When turned on, the Power indicator must be lit - it means that the device is turned on. Then we look at the LAN port indicators - they are usually marked either simply with numbers - 1, 2, 3, 4.

    When plugging the patch cord into the LAN port— the indicator with the corresponding port number should light up. If it does not light up, try disconnecting the network patch cord and plugging it into the adjacent connector. If the indicator does not light up there either, try everything one by one. Didn't help? Then you have The router is faulty - take it to service.

    Step 3: Check your network settings.

    At this stage we need to check the settings network adapter- what IP is registered. To get into the network card settings on the operating system Windows system XP you need to click the Start button, select the partition Network connections. In Windows 7 and Windows 8, press the key combination Win+R. The Launch Program window will open. Here you need to type the phrase - control panel.

    The Panel will open Windows management, where you need to find the “Network and Internet” section.

    Click on it with the left mouse button. The following window will open:

    Now, to open the router’s personal account via 192.168.1.1, click on the “Network and Sharing Center” link:

    Select the menu item “ Properties" . The Local Area Connections properties window will open:

    Select “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)” and double-click on it with the left mouse button. In most cases, IP settings are set to automatic mode:

    This is how the system was initially configured. This is done in order to facilitate the connection of the computer to the network. Thanks to this, if there is a DHCP server on the network, Windows will receive an IP address, mask, gateway address and DNS from it.
    But what if there is no DHCP server on the network, or it is disabled in the configuration? In this case, logging in via 192.168.1.1 to your personal account in automatic settings will not be available, since the IP will be picked up from a special Microsoft subnet - 169.x.x.x. It goes without saying that with such an address you will not have access to the WiFi router address. Therefore, to enter its configurator, you need to register the IP manually - check the “Use the following IP address” checkbox and enter the addresses as in the picture:

    That is, the following should be written:
    IP address - 192.168.1.2
    Mask - 255.255.255.0
    Gateway - 192.168.1.1
    Preferred DNS server192.168.1.1
    Alternative DNS server - 8.8.8.8
    Registered, click the “OK” button for the changes to take effect. We launch the browser again and try to go into the router settings at 192.168.1.1. Personal account router is still unavailable?! Well, let's move on.

    Step 4. Check the Web browser.

    In the Control Panel, select the “Network and Internet” section :

    Now you need to select “Internet Options” and open the “Connections” tab. Click the “Network Settings” button:

    No Proxy servers should be registered.

    Keep in mind that a web browser is also a program and may not work entirely correctly. Therefore, be sure to install another browser - Firefox, Opera or Chrome - and try to log into the router via 192.168.1.1 (Zyxel Keenetic, TP-Link, ASUS, etc.).

    Step 5. The node can be blocked by the Security System.

    It may happen that your modem or router becomes unavailable locally due to incorrect configuration of the Windows Firewall or another firewall you have installed. To eliminate this we do this:
    We completely disable (by stopping the service) the security system you have installed - antivirus, firewall, etc.
    Also, to exclude all options, we try to disable standard firewall Windows. It can also block IP 192.168.1.1 or an entire subnet. Go to the Control Panel, select the section " Windows Firewall" and completely deactivate the packet filter by clicking on the "Disable" value.

    On Windows 7 and Windows 10 Toolbars We look for the “Security System” -> “Windows Firewall” section and select the “Turn Windows Firewall on or off” menu item.

    We disable it completely for private and public networks.

    Again we check access via 192.168.1.1 to the personal account of the modem or router.

    If none of the above helped you, then only the following scenarios remain:

    1 option- The IP address on the router has been changed. That is, it is not 192.168.1.1 that is used, but another IP - 192.168.0.1, 10.90.90.90, etc. In this case, all that remains is to reset the device configuration parameters using the “Reset” button on the back panel of the device and configure it again.

    Option 2- viruses and malware. Nowadays there are a lot of different infections circulating on the Internet, including viruses for routers that change some of their settings, after which logging into the device’s web interface also becomes quite problematic. Start by checking your computer or laptop for viruses.

    Option 3— check if you can access 192.168.1.1 from a phone or tablet by connecting to WiFi networks. Password for connecting to wireless network very often it is written on a sticker glued to the bottom of the device. If not, then, as an option, you can try using the WPS function. In this case, the PIN code will also be written on the sticker.

    Option 4- Hardware failure of your modem or router. In this case, the only way out is to take it to the service center.

    Video tutorial:

    The router address 192.168.1.1 is available, but does not allow admin/admin

    I think that to complete the picture, we need to consider another option: the router is accessible, but it is not possible to log in to http://192.168.1.1 - the password is not suitable - admin:

    In this case, only 2 options are possible:
    1 — Reset the settings with the “Reset” button, as described above, after which access to the modem settings should be easy. But please note that after resetting the settings, the router will be pristine and will have to be completely configured from scratch.
    2 - Look for the person who originally set up your device and ask for the password. If this was done by a master installer from the provider, then perhaps he installs the same thing on all devices. If the parameter settings were made by someone else, then he is unlikely to remember and will still have to use “Reset”.

    TP-Link is one of the most famous manufacturers of routers, and the products of this company are distinguished by quality, reliability and fairly affordable prices. But after purchasing one of these devices, users often cannot configure it themselves. Moreover, some of them don’t even know how to log into the TP-LINK router and get to its main menu.

    In fact, setting up a router is not such a difficult task, and after completing it once, you yourself will understand how simple it is. This article will help you understand everything and avoid making one of the common mistakes.

    Preparation

    Before you start connecting TP-Link router, you need to do a little preparation. It consists in determining network parameters provider and write them down (or remember).

    The first thing you should understand is the type of Internet connection. If you use a login and password to connect, then the connection is carried out via the PPPoE protocol and you can immediately connect a TP-Link router, the configuration of which will be discussed below.

    If the login and password are not used for the connection, you must do the following:

    1. Open "Control Panel" and go to the "Network Management" tab.
    2. Now pay attention to sidebar(left). Here you need to select the line “Change adapter settings”.
    3. Here is a list of connections (usually there is only one). Right-click on the one that is active in at the moment, and select Properties.

    All you have to do is select “TCP/IPv4 Protocol” and click “Properties”.

    Determining the connection type

    The window that opens will allow you to determine the type of connection, of which (not counting PPPoE) there are two types:

    • If you have selected and filled in the “Use IP address” line, then your connection type is called “Static IP”. IN in this case you need to rewrite all the settings and then select the “Obtain IP Address” option and click “OK”.
    • If the “Obtain IP address” line is active immediately, it means you have a “Dynamic IP” connection. This means you don't need to rewrite anything and you can start connecting your TP-Link router.

    In any case, you can now close all unnecessary windows and prepare for further actions.

    Connecting a router

    Now it's time to take the device out of the box and connect it to your computer. To do this:

    1. Connect the power supply to the device.
    2. Connect the Internet cable to the blue port.
    3. Connect the device to the computer using a network cable. Any of the yellow ports will do this.

    1. Launch your browser. It's best if it's Internet Explorer or Edge (for Windows 10).
    2. Enter the TP-Link router address. Usually this is a combination of numbers “192.168.1.1”, but sometimes there are other options (they are written on the bottom panel of the device).
    3. A window will appear in which you must enter the username and password of the TP-Link router. By default, you need to enter the word admin in both of these lines.
    4. In the menu (on the left), select the Quick Setup line.

    After completing the steps above, you will find yourself in the main settings menu. Here you need to indicate the connection type that you defined before logging into the TP-Link router.

    Setting up for PPPoE

    If your connection is via the PPPoE protocol, you need to select it in the main menu, click “Next” and enter the settings:

    • User Name - login with the provider.
    • Password - password for connecting to the Internet.
    • Confirm Password - password again.

    Now click Next and enter:

    • In the SSID field - the name of the access point (your choice).
    • PSK Password - create and enter a password.
    • Wireless Security - specify WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.

    After that, all you have to do is click Next and reboot the router (Reboot).

    Setting up for static IP

    Select the Static IP line in the main menu if your connection is via this protocol. You see a window with several lines that you need to fill in manually. These are the same parameters that you copied from the network Windows settings, before logging into the TP-Link router.

    Once you have completed all the lines, check them carefully again, and then click Next. In the next window you need to enter the name of the access point (of your choice), password (come up with it yourself), click Next and reboot the router.

    Setting up for dynamic IP

    If you have a dynamic IP and are using a TP-Link router, the setup will be very simple. In the menu you need to select Dynamic IP, click Next and enter the name of the access point, as well as the password for it.

    After this, all you have to do is click Next and then Finish. In this case, a reboot is not required.

    Setting up using a special disk

    To facilitate the process of setting up a router, TP-Link can be used special disk. It is not included with all device models, but if you have it, you can simply insert it into the CD-Rom and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the setup procedure in a few clicks.

    Possible problems

    Sometimes it happens that the provider blocks the connection by MAC address. In this case you need to do the following:

    1. Go to your router settings.
    2. Go to the Network section, and then select the MAC Clone sub-item.
    3. Here you need to click Clone MAC Address and then save the changes (Save).

    By the way, it is best, before logging into a TP-Link router, to contact your provider’s support service and clarify this issue with them.

    Password reset

    If you don't remember the password to enter your device settings, you can reset it. To do this, press the Reset button, which you will find on the back panel, and hold it for a few seconds. This will reset all settings to factory settings and you will be able to enter the settings using the standard password (admin).

    In some cases, the password initially differs from the standard one. If so, you can find it on the bottom panel of the router. The login is usually written there, as well as other data necessary to enter the device settings.

    Thanks to the possibility of connecting via wi-fi, as well as using and network cable routers provide comfortable access to the Internet on various devices. But to start operating the router, the Internet connection is established directly in the settings of the router itself.

    Wire connections

    For proper operation The router requires connecting the appropriate wires to its connectors. These sockets are located on the back of the router and have one common standard, so connecting cables will not cause you any difficulties.

    • The first thing you need to do is connect the power cord of the device.
    • The next step is to connect the cable that provides Internet access. The connector for it is called “Internet” and, as a rule, is highlighted in a different color or is located at some distance from the other inputs.
    • For full access You must connect your computer to the router settings using a wired connection. To do this, you need a regular LAN cable, which comes with most routers. To connect the cable between the router and the computer, use any of several lan connectors, indicated on the router with the corresponding abbreviation.

    Turning on the router

    To turn on the router, depending on the manufacturer and model, use the corresponding button or switch on the back panel of the device. Some routers do not have such a key and turn on immediately after connecting the power cord.

    Actions on how to enter the Wi-Fi router settings

    All that is required to enter the settings menu of your router is a username and password. If you don't know them, manufacturers always indicate factory options on back side devices: login is the login to enter the menu, and password is your password. In most cases, the word admin is used as the login, and the password is either not used or is similar to the login. In addition to the name and password to enter the router’s settings, the router’s network address is also indicated on the back panel. In most routers, the address is 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1. In order to enter the settings you need to open the browser and enter specified address in the address bar field. After this, you will be redirected to the router menu login page, where you need to enter your username and password. Access to the router settings allows you to make changes to individual parameters, change the Wi-Fi password, and also to access the router settings. As a rule, router settings are divided into appropriate categories. Despite the fact that the interface of many routers is translated into Russian, there are some models for which only English is available.

    D-Link input

    Entering the settings of a d link router is practically no different from the methods of accessing the parameters of routers from other manufacturers. The only difference is the router’s IP address; to access the settings menu, you must enter the address 192.168.0.1 to enter.

    Login for Asus

    Logging into the settings of your Asus router is performed as on other devices, the peculiarity is same values for login and password – admin.

    Login for TP-Link

    How to enter the settings of the TP link router? The parameters for accessing the settings of TP-Link routers are identical to standard settings routers Asus. Therefore, to access the interface, enter the address 192.168.1.1 and use the admin value for the Login and Password fields.

    Reset settings

    For cases where they were entered incorrect settings Internet or you connect the router to another provider, it is possible to reset the router settings to the original version. This way, you can receive the router settings as they were when you purchased it. Also, users quite often forget the settings access password after changing the factory password. By resetting your device, you can reset the settings and use standard passwords to access the router settings.

    There are two ways to reset your device to factory settings:

    • The first method involves resetting the settings programmatically, it is executed through the router's web interface. This method is only suitable for users who have access to the device menu. If you need to reset your password, it is recommended to use the second method. A software reset of the router in the English version of the interface looks like “ResetFactoryDefaults”, in the Russian version it is more often found as “Reset to factory settings”.

    For TP-Link routers this parameter located in the section " System Tools" Just select the “Factory settings” option and click on the “Restore” button. After this, the router will reboot within a minute.

    To reset settings Asus routers you need to go to the “Administration” settings section and click on the “Restore” button next to the inscription “Factory settings”. To restore the settings, the router needs to reboot.

    The settings of routers from the manufacturer D-Link are reset to their original settings using the “Factory settings” function in the “System” section of the interface.

    • The second method involves hard reset device settings. Restoring settings is done by pressing the special “Reset” button, usually located on the back of the router. These buttons, as on other types of equipment, are located in a special recess that protects the button from random clicks. Therefore, to reset the settings, you will need a fountain pen or pencil, with which you need to hold the button for 6-15 seconds until the indicators on the front panel light up or blink. After downloading, the router settings will be set to default.

    Important! After resetting the settings, you will need to reconfigure your Internet connection in the router settings.

    Firmware installation

    Router firmware helps not only increase the functionality of the device, but also solve some operational problems. It should be immediately mentioned that unsuccessful flashing can lead to complete failure of the device. To reduce possible risk Firmware is performed only using a cable. There are many unofficial firmware For various models, but in order to avoid damage to the router, it is recommended to install firmware provided only by the device manufacturer. Unforeseen situations such as a power outage while updating the router firmware can also lead to irreversible consequences. Therefore, during firmware installation, you should connect the device and computer to an uninterruptible power supply.

    To perform the flashing itself, you need to perform a number of simple operations:

    • download and also check new firmware for your device. Firmware different versions available for download on the websites of router manufacturers.
    • Reset the device to factory settings.
    • Disconnect the Internet cable from the router.
    • open the web interface and go to the firmware update section.
    • some models have automatic search firmware file, to update such a device you only need to follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
    • if your device does not have this function, then you will need to manually specify the location of the new firmware.

    During the firmware installation, you should never turn off or reboot the device. After the operation is completed, a message about the successful installation of the firmware appears, you must reboot the router.

    New Password

    To change the access password to the device’s web interface, you need to go to the router settings and select the appropriate category; for TP-Link this section is called “System Tools”. To change your password or login, you must enter your current password and click save.

    Photo: Setting a new password for the router

    For change wifi password you need to go to the section wi-fi settings network (wireless network mode). In this section you can set New Password for a wi-fi network, and also select the type of protection. There are 3 key encryption options, each of which has its own level of protection, the most recommended type is WPA/WPA2, which provides the highest degree of security for your router.

    How to get through the browser if you forgot your password? Unfortunately, to enter the settings menu you need a login and password, which can only be restored if you have a saved backup copy router settings. To view passwords from a backup copy, just download the RouterPassView program. There are several standard password options, perhaps one of them was set for your router:

    • empty line,
    • "password"
    • "12345"
    • "admin".

    If you changed your password earlier and cannot remember it, then the only solution is full reset router parameters to factory settings. After the reset, you can use the standard login and password to enter the settings.

    All modern wireless routers TP-Link have a single appearance web configuration interface.

    Setting up a Wi-fi network, setting a password;
    And much more.
    Before starting the instructions, I would like to remind you that Wi-Fi is absolutely harmless to health. I am writing about this because I have often heard the opposite from my interlocutors. Yes, and more. Router TP-Link TL-WR841N – perfect solution to connect home internet in terms of price/quality ratio.

    Connecting TP-Link TL-WR841N

    In total, there are 6 buttons and connectors on the back panel of the TP-Link TL-WR841N:
    1. On/off;
    2. Input for power cable;
    3. WAN input for connecting to the Internet;
    4. LAN inputs for connecting the router and PC;
    5. QSS button;
    6. Reset button.

    The first step is to connect the router to your computer or laptop. To connect the router, you need to plug an Internet cable from your provider with an RJ-45 connector into the blue WAN input, and plug a twisted pair cable from your computer into one of the yellow LAN connectors.

    After this, you need to connect the power cable and make sure that the router turns on.

    Entering the settings of TP-Link TL-WR841N

    After this, you need to log in to the router control panel. Open any browser (Opera, Mozilla, Google Chrome or Internet Explorer). IN top line enter the following address: “192.168.1.1” or “192.168.0.1”.

    An identification window will pop up. It requires you to fill in the fields “User name” - admin, “password” - admin. Having completed all this, we will go to the main window in which you can change the settings of the tp-link tl-wr841n.

    The username admin and password admin are the default settings. If it says to you that “the login or password is incorrect,” then most likely the router has already been configured earlier and you need to reset the settings to the factory settings by pressing the Reset button.

    Setting a password

    First, necessary procedure– changing the standard login and password to a unique one. No one is forcing you to do it, however, by following a number of simple procedures you will be completely confident that your router is reliably protected. There will be no incomprehensible traffic costs due to neighbors stealing it.

    Do not forget that after changing your login and password and connecting with personal data, you should write them down in a special notepad. Otherwise, you may subsequently lose the opportunity to access the Internet and then you will have to re-establish the connection.

    Go to the menu “System Tools” - “Password”.


    Here you need to specify the initial login and password (in our case, admin admin), and then set new parameters. You need to remember and always save changes.

    Internet setup

    To start using the TP-Link TL-WR841N router for its intended purpose - organizing a Wi-Fi network, you need to connect it to the Internet. To accomplish this task, we make a number of settings.

    Network parameters required to establish an Internet connection:
    IP address;
    Network mask;
    Main gateway;
    Primary DNS address;
    Secondary DNS address.

    All this information is contained in the agreement drawn up with the provider. Internet company employees are also always ready to provide this information, and sometimes set the settings below for you.

    Option 1 – Dynamic IP address. This is the most easy way configure the TP-Link TL-WR841N router to organize a network. With this method, all network data is reported to the device automatically.
    Go to the menu “Network” - “WAN”. In the window that appears, click “Dynamic IP address”. Next, “Define.” Then we save the result.

    Sometimes it happens that Internet providers do not provide such services as automatic setting DNS server addresses.
    In this case, they must be entered into the required sections, checking the “Use these DNS servers” checkbox.
    2nd option – Static IP address. This setup and installation method is a little more complicated. In this situation, all variables that connect to the Internet are independently registered.

    In the “Network” menu - “WAN”. We define the “Static IP” connection option and enter all the relevant values ​​​​from the agreement with the Internet provider.
    3rd option – “PPPoE” - login is carried out by entering your login and password. Some providers use this method in addition to static IP. In this case, you need to enter the “IP” and “Subnet Mask” data.


    The 4th option – “PPTP” – is identical to the third and is filled out in the same way.

    Clone the MAC address

    There are providers in the Internet communications market that provide their services based solely on the MAC address network card subscriber's computer. This must be taken into account before setting up a Wi-Fi router.

    If the MAC is not detected in the router, you will not be able to use the Internet. Get additional information You can ask your provider about the need to link your Wi-Fi router to the MAC at the time of signing the contract. Or by calling hotline to the operator's office.

    Go to the “Network” menu - “Clone MAC address” and click on the “Clone computer MAC address” icon.

    As a result of these actions, the router’s MAC will be identical to the computer’s and, as a result, the Internet connection will function. You need to pay special attention to the fact that if you are setting up a Wi-Fi router from another PC, you must fill out the MAC yourself in a specially designated field.
