1.Steps to login to the Router's web management page

Click the 'Privacy error' page.

Click on Advanced ---- Proceed to http://mwlogin.net (unsafe) Or Advanced ---- Proceed to 192.168.1.1 (unsafe).

A warning message will show as below due to the browser requiring a signed certificate. Please don’t worry about that. The reason why browsers recognize mwlogin.net as “Not secure” is that mwlogin.net’s Certificate is a self-signed certificate. Most browsers will show this warning because tplinkwifi.net is not an authoritative CA. We can promise that the connection between your browser and the mwlogin.net server is secure.

Step4. Set password for admin account

Set a secure password for the administrator account as required
