How to log in to the MiFi's web management page when HTTPS is enabled

1. Steps to log in to the MiFi's web management page

Step 1. Connect your device to your MiFi

Connect the device to the MiFi via wireless by using the SSID (network name) and password printed on the label of the MiFi.

Step 2. Access the web management page

It's recommended to use Firefox, Chrome, Edge to access the web management page of the MiFi.

Type https://tplinkmifi.net in the address bar, then press Enter.

Step 3. Allow access to the Web GUI

Click the 'Privacy error' page.

Click on Advanced ---- Proceed to tplinkmifi.net (unsafe) Or Advanced ---- Proceed to 192.168.0.1 (unsafe).

A warning message will show as below due to the browser requiring a signed certificate. Please don’t worry about that. The reason why browsers recognize tplinkwifi.net as “Not secure” is that tplinkwifi.net’s certificate is a self-signed certificate. Most browsers will show this warning because tplinkwifi.net is not an authoritative CA. We can promise that the connection between your browser and the tplinkwifi.net server is secure.

Note: For more information about the self-signed certificate and unsecure notice, please refer to the FAQ here: Why TP-Link HTTPS web interface is detected as unsecure by some web browsers?

Step 4. Set password for admin account

Set a secure password for the administrator account as required

2. What to do if web management page is not accessible

When you enter the URL and press 'enter', only one web page titled 'Connect to a network' is shown. Click 'connect' button doesn't help.

• Try to log in on the Tether app

• Change to other web browsers

• Clearing the browser’s cache or use Incognito mode, refer to the FAQ here: How do I clear the cache in different Major Browser？
