Huawei routers don't all use the same admin address. Your login IP depends on the model. Mobile WiFi devices use `192.168.8.1`. Home and fiber routers from ISPs often use `192.168.1.1` or `192.168.100.1`. Default password is `admin` / `admin` on most models.
192.168.8.1 (MiFi), 192.168.1.1 (home routers), 192.168.100.1 (fiber ONT). Default login is admin / admin.Huawei Router Admin Addresses by Model

How to Log In to Any Huawei Router
- Connect to the Huawei router via WiFi or with an Ethernet cable.
- Open a browser and type the IP from the table above into the address bar. Start with `http://192.168.8.1` for MiFi devices or `http://192.168.1.1` for home routers.
- Enter `admin` as username and `admin` as password.
- If that doesn't work, check the device sticker for a unique password.
Huawei ISP Router Passwords
When your ISP provides a Huawei router, the default credentials are often different from the standard `admin` / `admin`. Here are common combinations:
| ISP / Region | Model | Username | Password |
|---|---|---|---|
| PLDT (Philippines) | HG8245H | adminpldt | 1234567890 |
| Globe (Philippines) | HG8145V | admin | admin or sticker |
| STC (Saudi Arabia) | HG8245Q | admin | admin or stc |
| Etisalat (UAE) | HG8245H | admin | admin or sticker |
| Vodafone | Various | admin | admin |
These credentials change when the ISP updates firmware. If none of them work, call your ISP's support line. They can reset the admin password remotely on most fiber ONT models.
Using the Huawei AI Life App
Huawei's companion app lets you manage your router without typing an IP address. It works with most B series, WS series and Mobile WiFi devices.
- Download Huawei AI Life from your app store (iOS or Android).
- Connect to the Huawei router's WiFi.
- Open the app. It discovers the router automatically.
- Tap the router card to access settings.
Changing Your Huawei WiFi Password
- Log in to the admin panel using the correct IP from the table above.
- Go to WiFi Settings or WLAN (the label varies by model).
- Change the password in the WPA Pre-Shared Key field.
- Save. All connected devices disconnect and need to reconnect with the new password.
Troubleshooting Huawei Login Problems
Page doesn't load. Try all Huawei IPs: `192.168.8.1`, `192.168.1.1`, `192.168.0.1`, `192.168.100.1`. One of them will work. Or run `ipconfig` on Windows / check WiFi details on your phone to find the Default Gateway.
Password wrong. Check the device sticker first. If the router was set up by your ISP, they may have changed the default password. A factory reset brings it back to defaults.
Factory reset. Hold the Reset button on the back for 10 seconds until the LEDs flash. The router restarts with factory defaults. You'll need to set it up again from scratch.
