TP-Link Modem Router Login
TP-Link modem routers combine a DSL/Cable modem and a WiFi router. Accessing the interface via 'tplinkmodem.net' allows complete network and connection management.
How to Login to TP-Link Modem Router
Logging into your TP-Link modem router provides access to configure both your internet connection (DSL/Cable settings) and your local network (WiFi, security, etc.) through a single interface.
The standard way to access the management page is by using the hostname http://tplinkmodem.net. Alternatively, the default IP address http://192.168.1.1 usually works as well. Ensure you're connected to the TP-Link device's network.
For most TP-Link modem routers, the default login credentials are:
- Username: admin
- Password: admin
However, some newer models might not have a default password and will require you to create one during the initial setup process the first time you access the interface.
- Connect your device (computer, phone) to the TP-Link modem router's network via WiFi or Ethernet cable.
- Open a web browser.
- Enter 'http://tplinkmodem.net' or the default IP 'http://192.168.1.1' into the address bar.
- Enter the default username 'admin' and the default password 'admin'. (Newer models might prompt you to set a password on first login).
- Click 'Login'.

Troubleshooting Issues with TP-Link Modem Router
Can't access tplinkmodem.net? Try these troubleshooting steps:
- Verify Connection: Ensure your device is connected to the TP-Link modem router's WiFi or via an Ethernet cable to one of its LAN ports.
- Correct Address: Double-check spelling for 'tplinkmodem.net'. Try using the IP address '192.168.1.1' instead. Ensure you use 'http://'.
- Default Credentials: Use 'admin' (lowercase) for both username and password. If it's a newer model, recall the password you set during first setup.
- Browser Cache: Clear your browser's cache and cookies, or try logging in using an incognito/private browser window.
- Modem Router Reboot: Restart the TP-Link device. Unplug the power, wait 30-60 seconds, plug it back in, and allow a few minutes for it to fully initialize and sync with your ISP.
- Factory Reset: If you've forgotten a custom password (or the initial password you set), use the reset button (press and hold for ~10 seconds). This restores factory defaults ('admin'/'admin' or prompts for new password) but erases all settings, including ISP connection details (PPPoE username/password, VPI/VCI for DSL). Be prepared to reconfigure everything.
- IP Conflict: If another device on your network is using 192.168.1.1, it might cause issues. Temporarily disconnect other devices.

- Configure Internet Connection: Verify or input your ISP settings (e.g., PPPoE username/password, VPI/VCI for ADSL, Connection Type for Cable).
- Customize WiFi Networks: Set unique SSIDs and strong WPA2/WPA3 passwords for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
- Update Firmware: Check for and install the latest firmware version under 'System Tools' -> 'Firmware Upgrade'.
