I have followed your instructions but the admin username  and password is being rejected as invalid. I have not done anything to change it from the default

Any ideas?

Hi - I have tried multiple time to enable my WPS on this router (using the webpage provided)  but it won't recognise my password etc. I have tried spaces in different places on the ID as well! 

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

I"m really looking for help here.  I have tried the method here many timesand I just can't get the WPS light on my modem to stay on.  I enable WPS, I switch on the button, the WPS button just flashes and then disappears.  I'm trying to connect it to a D-Link wifi range extender.. I really don't know what else to do.  The range extender is now sitting in the same room .  I'm getting a little desperate here.  Any other tips or thoughts?  Thanks

Login the web interface of TP-Link router by referring to Tp-link Login

If you log in successfully, your router's home page opens.
Navigate to the WPS (Wifi Protected Setup) page.

Enable/Disable WPS function

If you want to enable/disable the WPS feature, go to System Tools > System Parameters > WPS, tick or untick the Enable WPS checkbox.
