Viewing (TP LINK) router interface settings issue

[Da Mail Man]

Greetings all - It's been a while,

1)...I acquired (at "0" cost) a TP-LINK Archer C7 AC1750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router and started fooling with it today...

2)...I wanted to look at the interface of the unit so, I connected a cable to one of the 4 ports on back of the "tp",

3)...then, ran to a laptop computer using Win 10,

4)...typed in 192.168.1.1 and computer screens says in effect; "could not connect"...

5)...The router was set to all it's defaults prior and all cables are good and laptop ok..

What am I doing incorrectly?

Try 192.168.0.1

If that don't work there should be a sticker on the bottom with default access site to use possibly

Thanks for the reply...
I don't even get to an "interface/page where I can do that...

I put in the #'s you suggested and same results...

If I cannot get to the "innards" of this, I am stalled out.....
