How to disable IPv6 on a TP-Link router

Step 1:

On a phone or computer connected to the router you are configuring open your browser and visit tplinkwifi.net OR 192.168.1.1 OR 192.168.0.1 OR 192.168.2.1  (Exact address may differ - Check the sticker on the router itself to confirm). 

Step 2:

Log into your router. If you have not changed the default login information and you are unsure - look for a sticker on the router itself for the default login.

Step 3:

There are 3 different versions of TP-Link's router UI. We will go over all 3 below. Just follow the instructions for the same UI as your router uses.

Version 1:

  • Visit the "Advanced" (1) tab at the top and select IPv6 (2) in the menu.
  • Toggle OFF the IPv6 switch (3)
  • Select "Save" (4) and then select "Reboot" (5)

Version 2:

  • From the left side menu select "IPv6 Support" (1).
  • Uncheck the "Enable IPv6" checkbox (2) and select "Save" (3)
  • From the left side menu select "System Tools" then "Reboot".

Version 3:

  • From the left side menu select "IPv6", then IPv6 WAN (1).
  • Uncheck the "Enable IPv6" checkbox (2) and select "Save" (3)
  • From the left side menu select "System Tools" then "Reboot".
