What can I do if I fail to log into the web-based setup page of WAVLINK Wi-Fi range extender?

Occasionally you may not be able to log into the web-based management page of your Wi-Fi range extender when you try to access the URL http://waplogin.link or the IP http://192.168.10.1 . This may be because http://waplogin.link or http://wifi.wavlink.com are not regular Internet sites. It is a local URL used to open the Settings for the WAVLINK Wi-Fi range Extender.

If your computer is not connected to the Internet, the following error message may appear when accessing http://waplogin.link in the browser address bar. 

 

Google Chrome:

 “Unable to connect to the Internet. Google Chrome can’t display the web-page because your computer isn’t connected to the Internet.”

Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge :

“Page cannot be displayed” or “You are not connected to a network.”

Firefox:

“Server not found. Firefox can’t find the server at http://waplogin.com or http://wifi.wavlink.com “ 

Safari:

Cant find server ”

5. Please unplug the Ethernet cable to disconnect the connections between your primary router and your WAVLINK Wi-Fi range extender . Then try to access the website http://waplogin.link or http://wifi.wavlink.com to log in. 


1. If the solutions above do not help, we recommend logging in with the specific IP address that your primary router has assigned to your WAVLINK extender. Here are two ways on how to find the exact IP address your WAVLINK extender obtained from your main router.

 

Method one: Log into your main routers web management to check  

Step 1: Check the MAC address of your WAVLINK extender which could be found on the label where it is attached on the at the back of the extender

Step 2: Log into the web management page of your main outer, locate to your main router’s DHCP client list to find the IP of the range extender, for example 192.168.0.125

Step 3: Then connect to the WAVLINK extender again, enter the specific IP address 192.168.0.125 in the browser URL bar to access the web-based setup page of your WAVINK extender.

Method two: Check the IP address via command prompt

Step 1: Check the MAC address of your WAVLINK extender which could be found on the label where it is attached on the at the back of the extender

step 2:  At the command prompt, enter "arp -a" and press Enter. Automatically reads the mapping table between IP addresses and MAC addresses in the cache. then you can check the WAVLINK extenders IP address 


7. Flush the local DNS cache.

Here is the instruction on how to flush the local DNS address.

Step 1: Disconnect your client devices from the range extender and reconnect to it. Wait for several seconds so that the client devices can renew its IP.

Step 2:

For Windows: go to Start menu-> All Programs->Accessories, click Command Prompt. Type the command ipconfig /flushdns.


For Mac OS X: please refer to Apple knowledge base https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202516
