- The login details (username and password) for the configuration web interface of your TP Link router (to log into the router, type in the Router's IP address into the address bar of your web browser. Enter the login details when prompted)
Please note that the screenshots below were taken from a TD-VG3631 TP-Link router, but the information given should correspond to most VoIP-enabled TP-Link routers.
