Tenda Router Troubleshooting

If you can't reach the login page, try these solutions:

  1. Check your connection: Make sure your device is connected to the Tenda network.
  2. Try alternative IP addresses: Attempt each of the IP addresses listed above.
  3. Reset network settings: On your computer, try resetting the network stack:
    • For Windows: Run Command Prompt as administrator and type ipconfig /release followed by ipconfig /renew
    • For Mac: Go to System Preferences > Network > Advanced > TCP/IP > Renew DHCP Lease
  4. Use incognito/private browsing: Browser cache can sometimes interfere with router login pages.
  5. Disable other networks: Turn off cellular data or other WiFi connections that might interfere.
  6. Check cables: Ensure all cables are securely connected if using a wired connection.
Unique Tenda Tip: Some Tenda routers have a physical WiFi/WPS button. Pressing this briefly can help re-establish connection if the WiFi signal is weak.

If the default password doesn't work or you've forgotten your custom password:

  1. Try common Tenda default combinations:
    • Username: admin | Password: admin
    • Username: admin | Password: password
    • Username: user | Password: user
    • Password only: admin (some models)
  2. Check router label: Some Tenda routers have default credentials printed on a label attached to the router.
  3. Factory reset the router: This is your last resort if nothing else works.
    1. Locate the small reset button on your Tenda router (usually on the back or bottom)
    2. Ensure the router is powered on
    3. Press and hold the reset button for 10-15 seconds using a paperclip or pin
    4. Release when you see the router lights flash
    5. Wait 2-3 minutes for complete reboot
    6. Try logging in with default credentials
Warning: Factory reset will erase all customized settings, including your WiFi name, password, and any configuration changes you've made.
