won't accept router login password to bind for management
won't accept router login password to bind for management
- I set up a TP Link ID and then wanted to change the password for the Router, because the advice was that the out of the box password is not secure.
- When I login to TP Link ID, it says that "router is not bound to the current TP Link ID. Enter the router login password to bind for management" .
- I entered the password on the base of the router, which I think is the "local password".
- The response was "Incorrect password"
- I reset the router by pressing the reset button for 20 seconds. I got an orange indicator light for wifi on the router, so I turned the router of, left it for 10 minutes, turned it back on. I got all 4 green lights back.
- I deleted browser history.
- I re-entered the password on the base of the router, which I think is the "local password"
- I got the same response: : "Incorrect password"
I am not sure how unsafe it is to not change the password, I also note that every time I login to http://tplinkwifi.net or into http://192.168.0.1 my browser tells me that the site is not secure.
For the purpose of this post, I was meant to fill in the firmware version, I have no idea what that means or where to find it...
Can anyone help me please?
