Manage Your Router
3. Enable Local Management over HTTPS and keep the Port for HTTP and Port for
HTTPS as the default settings. Enter the IP address or MAC address of the local
device to manage the router.
4. Click Save.
Now, you can manage the router over both HTTP (http://tplinkwifi.net) and HTTPS
(https://tplinkwifi.net).
Note:
If you want all local devices can manage the router, just leave the IP/MAC Address field blank.
11. 6. 3. Remote Management
By default, the remote devices are not allowed to manage the router from the internet.
You can enable remote management over HTTP and/or HTTPS if needed. HTTPS is a
more secure way to access the router.
Note:
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), you cannot use the remote management
feature because private addresses are not routed on the internet.
Follow the steps below to allow remote devices to manage the router over HTTPS.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > System Tools > Administration, and locate the Remote
Management section.
