Cannot connect to AP through default IP 192.168.1.254

Hi!
My employer bought an Access Point, TL-WA901ND. When I connected it to the LAN it worked perfectly at once with no setup - I just connected the AP to the router, started the AP and then I could connect a mobile phone and surf. When I tried to manage the AP through a wired computer, or the mobile phone by using Internet Explorer and the default IP 192.168.1.254, I got nothing. Just would not connect. So I thought I would try it at home, on my own LAN, just in case something was wrong with the router at work.
I have a LAN with an Internet connection by cable TV, through a Netgear router (CG3100), which also has a wireless function. Two computers are connected by wire to the router. A range extender (TL-WA830RE) and a printer is connected wirelessly to the router. A laptop and my mobile phone sometimes connects through the RE. All of it works well together.
Unfortunately, I got the same result when I installed the AP here. When I manage the router and look at the DHCP Client Lease Info, it shows all the leased IPs, except the AP! It even shows the mobile phones IP that it has recieved through the AP, but not the APs IP. It is though the APs IP is somehow transparent in the LAN, but it also means I have no other IP I can try, to connect to and manage the AP.
My DHCP IP range is 192.168.0.10-254. As the APs IP is 192.168.1.254, maybe this is why I cannot see it, but then why does the AP function in the LAN anyway? I am SO confused by this. I am obviously doing something wrong, but I just can't see what!
Please help!

No need to look for the impossible information on the whole topic http://
192.168.l.254 Reset the device, then connect the LAN cable directly to the computer.

@MacDknife There are some reasons due to which you are not able to connect with your router admin panel using AP. The most common reason is the browsers autocomplete feature due to which many user enter 192.168.I.254. May be you are wondering that the IP is corrept but if you see clearly then you will find that 1 is replaced with I. If you still find issues then visit 192.168.1.254 You will find your problmes solutions.

Hi, when the default IP address 192.168.0.254 is no longer working, it would be much better that you could have a test of http://tplinkap.net
Thank you very much.
