Model: TL-WR841HP  
Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: I can't access it.

Hi all. Please assist. I set up my router as an access point and immediately when I did that I cannot access it again to change some of the settings. I tried all the suggestions on Google I could find.

Hi,

 

I am not sure about the TL-WR841HP in particular, but on TP-Link routers the LAN IP address of the router usually changes from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.254 after switching from router mode to access point mode.

So, please try http://192.168.0.254.

Hi @JohannR,

Welcome to our community.

 

You can still try to visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router.
