Router Mode; Hardware Connection - TP-Link TL-WR841HP User Manual

2. Is the TCP/IP configuration for your PC correct?
If the router's IP address is 192.168.0.1, your PC's IP address must be within the range of
192.168.0.2 ~ 192.168.0.254.
3. Try the IP address 192.168.0.1.
If the LAN IP of the modem connected with your router is 192.168.0.x, the default LAN IP of
the router will automatically switch from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.1 (or 192.168.2.1 or
192.168.3.1) to avoid IP conflict. Therefore, in order to verify the network connection
between your PC and the router, you can open a command prompt, and type ping
192.168.1.1 (or 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.3.1), and then press Enter.
