If you are using a TP-Link ID to log in to the web management page, the Password Recovery feature will be disabled. To
manage the TP-Link ID, go to Basic > TP-Link Cloud.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > System Tools > Administration and focus on the Default Password
Recovery section.
3. Tick the Enable Default Password Recovery checkbox.
4. Specify a mailbox (From) for sending the recovery letter and enter its SMTP Server
address. Specify a mailbox (To) for receiving the recovery letter. If the mailbox (From)
to send the recovery letter requires encryption, select Enable Authentication and
enter its username and password.
Tips:
• SMTP server is available for users in most webmail systems. For example, the SMTP server address of Gmail is
smtp.gmail.com. You can refer to their Help page to learn the SMTP server address.

password.
