Globe Router Login
192.168.8.1
Globe Telecom is one of the Philippines' largest ISPs. Globe At Home routers use 192.168.254.254 as the default gateway, which differs from the standard 192.168.1.1 used by most ISPs. This guide covers login, the user / @l03e1t3 default credentials, and configuration for Huawei and ZTE units.
How to Login to Your Globe Telecom Router
Globe Telecom, operated by Globe Telecom Inc., runs Globe At Home, one of the two largest fixed-broadband services in the Philippines next to PLDT. Connect a device to the Globe At Home network over Wi-Fi or a LAN cable, open a browser, and enter the gateway 192.168.254.254 in the address bar.
That address is the giveaway quirk of a Globe line. Where most providers sit on 192.168.1.1, Globe places its gateway at 192.168.254.254 so the supplied unit avoids clashing with third-party routers wired behind it.
When the login screen loads, the credential that works on most Globe units is the username user with the password @l03e1t3. Many Huawei-branded Globe modems print the password on the label; older units used globe plus the last six characters of the MAC address, or the legacy tattoo@home from the old Tattoo@Home line. Newer firmware accepts admin as the username, and every unit also carries a sticker on its underside listing the exact login for that serial.
The GlobeAtHome app is the no-browser route. Signed in with your Globe-registered number, it surfaces your Wi-Fi name and password and lets you change them, so it doubles as a fallback when the web login is rejected.
Globe Router Models and Default Settings
Globe ships a compact lineup of ONT-router units across its fibre and legacy DSL plans. Each one answers on the same 192.168.254.254 gateway:
| Router Model | Default IP | Username | Password | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Huawei HG8145V5 | 192.168.254.254 | user or admin | @l03e1t3, label, or legacy tattoo@home | Most common fibre ONT |
| Huawei EG8145V5 | 192.168.254.254 | user or admin | @l03e1t3 | Newer installations |
| ZTE F670L | 192.168.254.254 | user or admin | @l03e1t3 | Dual-band, Wi-Fi 6 |
| ZTE F609 | 192.168.254.254 | user | @l03e1t3 | Older DSL unit |
| Huawei HG8245H | 192.168.254.254 | admin | On router label | Legacy fibre model |
The Huawei HG8145V5 is the unit most Globe At Home fibre subscribers receive, acting as the optical terminal and router in one box; its broader admin behaviour is covered in the Huawei router login guide. The ZTE F670L is the later Wi-Fi 6 option, and the ZTE router login guide lists its panel layout. Globe Telecom is a unit of the Ayala group, which underwrites the rolling fibre buildout behind these deployments.
Changing Your Globe Wi-Fi Password
The label password ships visible to anyone within reach of the router, so resetting it is the first thing to do after activation. The steps below follow the Huawei HG8145V5 panel.
After logging in at 192.168.254.254, open WLAN and then SSID Configuration, where the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios are listed side by side.
Pick the radio you want to edit. Rename the SSID Name away from the factory string (Globe ships these as GLOBE plus a short suffix) and type a fresh key into the WPA PreSharedKey box. Twelve characters or more is the floor; skip anything guessable like a mobile number or street address.
Hit Apply. Every device drops off and has to rejoin with the new key, so repeat the edit on the second band if you want both to share one password.
The GlobeAtHome app reaches the same setting under Manage Wi-Fi, where one field updates the key directly. For the cross-brand walkthrough, see our Wi-Fi password change guide.
Using Your Own Router with Globe At Home
A Globe At Home box can sit in front of your own router because it already handles the fibre handshake; your router only has to run the local network behind it.
Quick wiring (double NAT): leave the Globe unit powered, run an Ethernet lead from one of its LAN ports into your router’s WAN port, and set that WAN to DHCP. The two NAT layers are fine for browsing and streaming, though port forwarding and some online games need the cleaner path below.
Bridge mode (advanced): at 192.168.254.254, open WAN Configuration and switch the mode from Route to Bridge, then cable your router’s WAN port to LAN port 1 on the Globe device. Globe locks the bridge toggle behind elevated access on several models, so if the option is greyed out your firmware needs the higher-tier credential for that unit.
Troubleshooting Globe Router Issues
The recurring Globe At Home faults and their fixes:
-
Admin page will not open. Confirm you typed 192.168.254.254, not 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254. A wired LAN link is steadier than Wi-Fi for this, and prefixing the address as http://192.168.254.254 stops the browser treating it as a search.
-
Login keeps failing. Cycle through user / @l03e1t3, the Huawei user / tattoo@home, and admin / admin before anything drastic. The GlobeAtHome app can re-read the active password, and a factory reset (hold the rear button 15 seconds) clears a forgotten one.
-
Linked but offline. Pull the power for 30 seconds, then watch for a steady green light on reboot. If the connection stays dead, raise it on the GlobeAtHome app or ring Globe on 211.
-
Wi-Fi running slow. Run a wired speed test first; if the cable hits your plan rate, the wireless side is the limit. The compact Huawei and ZTE ONTs struggle through concrete, so a central spot plus a mesh node clears most dead zones.
-
Red LOS light. A lit LOS lamp signals lost fibre signal. Trace the fibre lead from the wall socket to the ONT for kinks or a loose seat, never bending it sharply, then report the line through the app or on 211 if the cable looks intact.
-
App cannot see the router. The GlobeAtHome app talks to the unit over the local network, so put your phone on the Globe Wi-Fi rather than mobile data, and relaunch the app if discovery hangs.

Test your Globe connection
After logging into your router, run a speed test to confirm Globe is delivering the throughput your plan promises. The widget below uses M-Lab's open NDT7 protocol — see the full speed test page for details on how the measurement works.
Globe Router FAQ
What is the default IP address for Globe router?
Globe At Home routers use 192.168.254.254 as the default gateway IP address. This is different from the typical 192.168.1.1 used by most other ISPs. Type 192.168.254.254 in your browser while connected to the Globe network to open the admin panel.
What is the default username and password for Globe At Home router?
The most widely documented Globe At Home login is the username user with the password @l03e1t3. On Huawei units the password is printed on the router label; older units used tattoo@home or globe followed by the last six characters of the MAC address. The username admin works on some newer firmware. If none apply, the credentials are printed on the sticker under the router, and the GlobeAtHome app also displays your network details.
How do I change my Globe Wi-Fi password?
Log in at 192.168.254.254. Open the WLAN or Wireless section, then the SSID configuration. Replace the value in the WPA PreSharedKey field with a new password of at least 12 characters and click Apply. The GlobeAtHome app offers the same control under Manage Wi-Fi without opening the web panel.
Why does Globe use 192.168.254.254 instead of 192.168.1.1?
Globe assigns 192.168.254.254 as the gateway so the Globe At Home device does not collide with third-party routers and equipment that ship on the common 192.168.1.1 address. The choice sits at the far end of the 192.168.254.x subnet and is intentional on Globe Telecom hardware.
How do I reset my Globe At Home router?
With the router powered on, press and hold the recessed reset button on the rear for about 15 seconds until the lights blink. The unit reboots to factory defaults, restoring the original label credentials. After a reset you may need to call Globe at 211 to reprovision your fibre line.
