  1. 1

    Connect to the router's Wi-Fi or cable, and turn off mobile data. The admin page only works inside that network.

  2. 2

    Use http://, not https://. Most routers have no certificate, so https:// fails or shows a warning.

  3. 3

    Try the other common addresses above. Your router may use 192.168.0.1, 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.100.1 instead.

  4. 4

    Look up your router's real address (the default gateway) with the steps at the bottom of this tool.

  5. 5

    Turn off VPN, proxy and private DNS apps, or try another browser.

  6. 6

    Still nothing? Restart the router, wait two minutes and try again. As a last resort, hold the reset button for 10 seconds (this erases your settings).

What Is 192.168.0.254?

192.168.0.254 is the factory address of the devices that sit behind your router: Wi-Fi range extenders from TP-Link, Mercusys and Tenda, TP-Link and Tenda access points, TP-Link Omada EAPs and TP-Link Pharos outdoor CPEs. Most also open at a setup name that is easier to remember: tplinkrepeater.net (TP-Link extenders), mwlogin.net (Mercusys), re.tenda.cn (Tenda) or tplinkeap.net (Omada).

The address answers only while the device is still at factory settings and you are connected to its own network. Once an extender joins your router, the router gives it a new address: find the extender in the router's client list (connected devices) and open that address instead.

How does router login work?

Your router has two addresses. The local (private) address, such as 192.168.1.1, is used only inside your home and is the one you log in to. Private addresses come from three reserved ranges: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 and 192.168.0.0/16. Millions of homes use the same ones, and they cannot be reached from the internet.

How to Log In to 192.168.0.254

  1. 1

    Connect to the extender's own network

    Join the Wi-Fi it broadcasts at factory settings, or plug a network cable into it. On a phone, turn off mobile data.

  2. 2

    Open the setup name or the address

    Type the maker's setup name, such as tplinkrepeater.net, or http://192.168.0.254 in the browser's address bar, or tap the button above.

  3. 3

    Create or enter the password

    TP-Link, Mercusys and Tenda extenders ask you to set an admin password the first time; some TP-Link models use admin / admin. Omada EAPs and Pharos CPEs use admin / admin.

  4. 4

    Note its new address

    After the extender joins your router, the router gives it a new address. Find it in the router's client list to log in again later.

192.168.0.254 Default Login by Device

The login depends on the device:

  • TP-Link range extenders: you set an admin password the first time you log in; for some models the default username and password are both admin. Setup name: tplinkrepeater.net.
  • Mercusys range extenders: you set an admin password the first time you open the page. Setup name: mwlogin.net.
  • Tenda Wi-Fi extenders: no admin password at the factory; you set one the first time you use the extender. Setup name: re.tenda.cn.
  • TP-Link Omada EAP access points: admin / admin at tplinkeap.net. 192.168.0.254 is only their fallback address, used when no DHCP server answers on the network.
  • TP-Link Pharos outdoor CPEs (CPE210, CPE510): admin / admin, then change the username and password as TP-Link's steps ask. They don't hand out addresses, so give your computer a fixed 192.168.0.x address first.

Change the Extended Wi-Fi Name and Password

On a TP-Link extender, open Settings > Wireless > Extended Network to change the extended network's name and password, or copy your router's network name with Copy Host SSID. On a Tenda extender, open WiFi Settings and set the WiFi name, security and WiFi password.

An extender only extends your network. To change your home Wi-Fi password, log in to the main router instead, for example at 192.168.0.1 if your router uses that address; Router Login lists the address and login for each brand.

Change the router's admin password as well, so nobody on your Wi-Fi can open its settings.

  1. 1

    Log in to the admin page

    Open tplinkrepeater.net and log in.
  2. 2

    Open the Wi-Fi settings

    Open this menu: Settings›Wireless›Extended Network
  3. 3

    Type a new password

    Type the new password in the Wi-Fi password field. Use 12 or more characters and WPA2 or WPA3 security.

    The Wi-Fi name (SSID) is on the same page if you want to change it too.

  4. 4

    Save and reconnect

    Click Save or Apply. Every device disconnects and has to join again with the new password.

192.168.0.254 vs 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.1.254

An extender or access point at 192.168.0.254 sits inside the 192.168.0.x network of routers at 192.168.0.1, such as many TP-Link, Tenda and D-Link models. Two devices left at the same factory address clash, so set them up one at a time: Tenda's advice for several access points is to configure one, including a new IP address, before connecting the next.

192.168.1.254 is a different address: the default of internet provider gateways such as Telmex, AT&T and BT. If that is the one you meant, Router Login has their logins.

192.168.0.254 Not Opening?

If the page doesn't load, it is usually one of these:

What do you see?

You're not on the extender's network

What to do

At factory settings it answers only on its own Wi-Fi or cable. Join that network, and turn off mobile data on a phone.

The device already has an address from your router

What to do

Once an extender joins your router, or an access point is plugged into a network with DHCP, 192.168.0.254 stops working. Find the device in the router's client list and open the address shown there.

Use the setup name instead

What to do

Type tplinkrepeater.net (TP-Link), mwlogin.net (Mercusys), re.tenda.cn (Tenda) or tplinkeap.net (Omada) in the address bar.

Your computer needs a fixed address

What to do

Pharos CPEs don't hand out addresses, and Tenda access points expect the computer on their network segment. Set a fixed 192.168.0.x address (any number but 254) on your computer, then open http://192.168.0.254.

It was set up before and you can't get in

What to do

Reset it to factory settings: it returns to 192.168.0.254 and its setup page, and you set it up again.

Find your router's IP address

Your router's address is your device's default gateway. Here is where each system shows it.

Press Windows + R, type cmd and press Enter. Run ipconfig and read the Default Gateway line under your Wi-Fi or Ethernet adapter.

192.168.0.254 FAQ

How do I log in to 192.168.0.254?

Connect to the extender's or access point's own network while it is at factory settings, turn off mobile data on a phone, and type http://192.168.0.254 or the maker's setup name, such as tplinkrepeater.net, in the address bar. TP-Link, Mercusys and Tenda extenders ask you to create an admin password; Omada access points and Pharos CPEs use admin / admin.

What is the default password for 192.168.0.254?

It depends on the device. TP-Link extenders ask you to set a password at first login, though some models use admin / admin. Mercusys and Tenda extenders have no preset password: you create one the first time. TP-Link Omada access points and Pharos outdoor CPEs use admin / admin, and Pharos asks you to change it right away.

Which devices use 192.168.0.254?

Wi-Fi range extenders such as TP-Link's RE series and TL-WA850RE, Mercusys MW300RE and ME models, Tenda A9 and A18, and the TOTOLINK EX1200L; TP-Link and Tenda access points; TP-Link Omada EAPs as a fallback; and TP-Link Pharos outdoor CPEs such as the CPE210 and CPE510. All of them sit behind your router, which has its own address.

What is tplinkrepeater.net?

It is the setup name of TP-Link range extenders: typed into the address bar, it opens the same management page as 192.168.0.254. Mercusys extenders use mwlogin.net, Tenda extenders re.tenda.cn and TP-Link Omada access points tplinkeap.net. Once the extender has joined your router, TP-Link's advice is to look it up in the router's client list.

Why is 192.168.0.254 not opening?

The extender may have joined your router and taken a new address, or you may not be connected to its own network. Check the router's client list for its current address, or join the extender's network and try its setup name, such as tplinkrepeater.net. Pharos CPEs need a fixed 192.168.0.x address on your computer, and a factory reset brings back 192.168.0.254.

How do I find my extender's IP address after setup?

Log in to your main router and open its list of connected devices, the client list. The extender appears there with the address the router gave it; type that address into the browser to open its page. TP-Link recommends exactly this once an extender has connected to a router, because 192.168.0.254 works only at factory settings.

How do I change the Wi-Fi password on my extender?

On a TP-Link extender, log in and open Settings > Wireless > Extended Network to change the extended network's name and password. On a Tenda extender, open WiFi Settings and set the WiFi name, security and password. Your home Wi-Fi password is set on the main router, so log in there to change it, often at 192.168.0.1.

Is 192.168.0.254 my router's address?

Usually not. Routers that use this network are often at 192.168.0.1, while 192.168.0.254 is the factory address of the extenders and access points behind them. Your device's default gateway shows your router's address. If you meant 192.168.1.254, that is a different address, used by Telmex, AT&T and BT gateways.

What is the default login of a TP-Link Omada access point?

TP-Link Omada EAP access points use admin as both the username and the password. Open http://tplinkeap.net, or 192.168.0.254 when no DHCP server is available on the network, which is the EAP's fallback address. The browser may warn that the connection is not private; TP-Link's own setup page mentions this warning.

How do I log in to a TP-Link Pharos CPE?

Give your computer a fixed address in the 192.168.0.x network, because the CPE210 and CPE510 don't hand out addresses. Then open http://192.168.0.254, enter admin as both the username and password, and change them when asked. The CPE's own address can be changed afterwards to fit your main router's network.
