I feel like I'd be lost if I had a TP-Link device, it throws me off when routers use 192.168.1.1 instead of 192.168.0.1.

So change it :)

Usually one of the first things I do when I set up a new router is generate two random numbers between 0-254 (say, 218 and 133) and make the local subnet:

10.218.133.0/24

I frequently VPN to other private networks, and when the local/remote address spaces overlap, like when both are 192.168.1.1/24, then the VPN has problems.
