How to log in to the web-based interface of Wi-Fi Routers
With a web-based utility, it is easy to configure and manage the router. The web-based utility can be used on any Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX OS with a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, or Apple Safari. It is a built-in internal web server that does not require internet access. It does however require your device to be connected to the router. This connection can be wired or wireless.
Note: A lower version of your web browser may cause compatibility problems with the web-based utility (management page) of your device, such as unable to log into the interface, display incomplete features etc. If you have any issues, please use a different web browser or device.
Follow the steps below to log in to your router.
1. Make sure your computer is set up to automatically receive an IP address (DHCP). Most computers are already set to this by default.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and create a login password for secure management purposes. Then click Let’s Get Started to log in.
Note:
If you have registered a TP-Link ID and bound your cloud router to it, the login password you created here will be ineffective. Please log in to the cloud router using your TP-Link ID.
The default access address differs by model. Please find it on the bottom label of the product.
If you forget the password, please reset the router to factory default by pressing the reset button/hole on the router until the LED lights change their status.
I find questions like this suspicious: all new TP-LINK devices come with a (folded) set of instructions, which include the various web addresses for that device. If the questioner cannot read - fine - ask away. If the device has been nicked, at least find out for yourself; it's all on the Internet!

It's clearly stated in the article how to begin recover from a lost password.
"If you forget the password, please reset the router to factory default by pressing the reset button/hole on the router until the LED lights change their status."
After this I believe you need to setup the router from scratch again.
Hope this help you forward!
Do I understand correctly that there is no way to log with an admin password if one select the TP-link login?
This looks like a major issue to me. If I have no internet connection and want to log to the router to check what is happening, I can't as the TP-link login doesn't work...
Is really the only option to get a no-internet access a factory reset and lose the ability to use the TP-link app?
