192.168.100.1 Login Admin

The 192.168.100.1 login is used by two kinds of box: Huawei fibre ONTs (the unit your fibre line plugs into, which often gives your Wi-Fi too) and NETGEAR cable modems. On a phone, join that box’s Wi-Fi, switch mobile data off and enter http://192.168.100.1 in the address bar, not the search box. The login is on the box’s sticker; Cheetah lists root / admin for the Huawei HG8245H.

If your router uses 192.168.100.1, this opens its login page. If nothing loads, your router uses a different address; see how to find the address your router uses.

Fibre ONT or cable modem at 192.168.100.1

A fibre ONT and a cable modem both answer at this address, and the menus depend on which one you have. Match yours in this table first.

192.168.100.1 username and password by ISP

Cheetah gives root and admin for its Huawei HG8245H and HG8247H at 192.168.100.1. NETGEAR gives admin and password for most CM cable modems and a label password on the CM2000. The Source column names each publisher.

Device	ISP and country	Address	Login	Source
Huawei HG8245H, HG8247H	Cheetah Internet, Philippines	192.168.100.1	root / admin	Cheetah ONT defaults
Huawei EG8245H, EG8247H, EG8145V5	Cheetah Internet, Philippines	192.168.18.1 or 192.168.100.1	Users Epuser or root; passwords userEp, admin or adminHW	Cheetah ONT defaults
NETGEAR CM400 to CM3000, CGD24N cable modems	Retail	http://192.168.100.1	admin / password; CM2000 on its label	NETGEAR support

Cheetah’s Huawei ONT login article says the web address, the user name and the password are all printed on the product nameplate. So any list, this one included, is a fallback for when the sticker is missing or worn.

We found no page from Safaricom, Airtel, Jio, MTN, Openserve, Telkomsel or Biznet that lists 192.168.100.1 or a login for it. Telkomsel’s own IndiHome help page only asks you to enter the admin address and the admin login that match your device, without naming either. On these networks, use the sticker under your ONT, or ask the ISP.

Not every Huawei fibre box uses this address either. Afrihost in South Africa sends its customers to 192.168.3.1 for its Huawei fibre Wi-Fi routers; that address has its own 192.168.3.1 sign-in page. For Huawei’s 4G and 5G units, which use other addresses again, start from the Huawei router page.

Huawei EG8145V5 login on 192.168.100.1

Cheetah gives the EG8145V5, EG8245H and EG8247H the address 192.168.18.1 or 192.168.100.1, in that order. Its EG8145V5 Wi-Fi article has you type 192.168.100.1 first and move on to 192.168.18.1 only if that one does not open. When the second address answers, the 192.168.18.1 login guide takes over.

Cheetah’s defaults article offers three passwords for these units. Its newer EG8145V5 article simply points owners to the sticker. The HG8145V5, a near-identical name, is not on Cheetah’s list at all, so take its login from the sticker too.

How to log in to 192.168.100.1 on a phone

These steps follow Cheetah’s Huawei ONT login article.

Log in on a laptop with a cable

Run a network cable from the laptop to a LAN port on the ONT. Cheetah’s article then has you put the computer in the same subnet as the ONT, which means an address that shares its first three numbers. Its example: with the ONT on 192.168.100.1, give the computer 192.168.100.100. You set this in the laptop’s network adapter settings under IPv4. Switch it back to automatic when you are done, or the laptop may stay offline.

Locked out or logged out of 192.168.100.1

Cheetah’s Huawei ONT login article says the 192.168.100.1 page locks for one minute after three wrong logins, and logs you out after five idle minutes.

Three wrong tries, and now every login fails

The page locks for one minute after three wrong user name and password entries in a row. Cheetah's EG8145V5 article states the same rule. Stop, wait a full minute, then type the sticker login once, slowly.

The page jumps back to the login screen while you edit

Five minutes with no action logs you out. Sign in again and have the new Wi-Fi name and key ready before you open the menu.

The admin password is not accepted

Use the exact login from your nameplate; published lists are only a guide. On EG models, try the other user name Cheetah lists, Epuser or root, but keep count so the lock does not start.

Reset the 192.168.100.1 admin password

Forgot a password you set yourself? Then the reset button is the last way back in, and the hold time and risk differ by box.

Box	Button press	What happens	Source
Huawei EG8145V5 ONT	Short press	Resets the ONT without restoring default settings	Cheetah, EG8145V5 cables
Huawei ONT	Longer than 10 seconds, with a needle	Factory defaults return. The ISP’s setup can be lost and the internet may stop	Cheetah, Huawei ONT reset
NETGEAR cable modem	About 7 seconds, until all lights blink	Factory defaults return; the reboot takes about one minute	NETGEAR article 000036374

On a Huawei ONT, Cheetah says the reset worked when the light goes off and then comes back on. If the internet does not come back afterwards, Cheetah sends you to the ISP, so call them before you press the pin. NETGEAR warns that cutting the power during its reset can corrupt the firmware. The general steps sit in what a factory reset clears on a router.

User account vs telecomadmin on 192.168.100.1

The login on your sticker is the everyday user account, and on Cheetah’s EG8145V5 it is the one used to change the Wi-Fi name and key. Many Huawei ONTs also carry a second account, often called telecomadmin, that the ISP uses for its line settings. It is not yours to use: the ISP sets its password and often changes or locks it before the box reaches you, and Wi-Fi changes never need it.

Change the Wi-Fi password at 192.168.100.1

To change the Wi-Fi password at 192.168.100.1, open WLAN on a Mobily Huawei HG8245, or Advanced, then WLAN, on Cheetah’s EG8145V5.

Model	Menu path	Fields to edit	Save step	Source
Huawei HG8245 (Mobily Fiber)	WLAN	SSID Name, WPA PreSharedKey (at least 8 characters)	Apply, then System Tool > Configuration File and the save configuration button	Mobily HG8245 steps

On the EG8145V5, Cheetah’s Wi-Fi steps use the Advanced menu and one Apply per band.

Cheetah suggests one name and password for both bands. After Apply, your phone drops off the old network: join again with the new key. On the HG8245, sign back in and finish Mobily’s save configuration step as well.

Forgot the Wi-Fi key, with no phone still connected? You cannot join the ONT’s Wi-Fi to reach the page, so Cheetah’s answer for that case is a PC on a network cable, as in the laptop steps above. Its general Huawei articles call the menu Advanced Configuration > WLAN and 2.4G Basic Network Settings, so the words on your screen may differ a little from the EG8145V5 steps.

If your 192.168.100.1 page has no WLAN menu, you are on a modem. The Wi-Fi key is then changed on the router behind it, and the Wi-Fi password steps for ZTE, TP-Link and other brands cover that part.

192.168.100.1 cable modem login

NETGEAR says that once its cable modem is set up, you never need to sign in for normal use; the page only changes a limited set of settings. When you do need it, the user name is admin and the default password is password, and both are case-sensitive. The CM2000 breaks the pattern: it has no default password, and every unit carries its own on the label. Its reset article adds that the modem’s address is always 192.168.100.1 and cannot be changed.

NETGEAR’s CAX30, CAX30S and CAX80 combine a modem and a Wi-Fi router. In normal use they open at 192.168.0.1, covered on the 192.168.0.1 login page. Once you set Router Mode to No, for example after adding a mesh system, NETGEAR says to sign in at 192.168.100.1 instead.

NETGEAR’s steps start from a computer that is either cabled to the modem or joined to a Wi-Fi router cabled to it, with http://192.168.100.1 typed in the address bar. Other NETGEAR products are on the NETGEAR login page. ARRIS SURFboard modems also use this address; their logins are on the Arris router login page. For Motorola cable modems and others, use any login printed on the modem’s label.

Starlink and 192.168.100.1

With your own TP-Link Archer added after a Starlink kit, TP-Link notes the Starlink settings may stay out of reach until the Archer has a static route. Its values: network destination 192.168.100.0, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.100.1, interface WAN. The full steps are in TP-Link’s Archer and Starlink article, and the Starlink login page covers the kit itself.

Typing 192.168 l 100.1 by mistake

Common mistyped forms of 192.168.100.1:

• 192.168 l 100.1, with a letter L where a dot belongs
• 192.168.l00.1, with the letter L standing in for the digit 1
• 192.168 o 100.1, with a letter o in the middle
• 192 168 100 1, with spaces in place of the dots

A browser treats each one as a search, because the real address is digits only with three dots. The address checker on the router login page turns a mistyped address back into the correct one.

192.168.100.1 login not working or refused

Use this list when the page does not open at all; sign-in failures are in the lockout section.

You are on another router's Wi-Fi

Cheetah's Huawei article starts from the ONT's own Wi-Fi, and the page may not open through another router. Join the ONT's Wi-Fi and try again.

The ONT's Wi-Fi name has disappeared

On the EG8145V5 the WLAN light is off when Wi-Fi is disabled. Cheetah's cable guide says to press the WLAN button for more than 3 seconds and release it to switch Wi-Fi back on.

Your IndiHome box is not a Huawei

Indonesian news guides report that other IndiHome routers open at 192.168.1.1, with user typed as both the name and the password.

The browser says refused to connect

Switch between http:// and https://. Bloomberg Technoz gives the https form for IndiHome Huawei units.

Nothing above helps

Your ISP may have locked the web page on its ONT. Ask the ISP; do not look for a way around the lock.

What the PON and LOS lights mean

The two lights on a Huawei ONT tell you if the fibre link itself is up. This reading comes from Cheetah’s EG8145V5 light guide; other models may use other patterns.

PON light	LOS light	Meaning	Next step
Steady on	Off	The fibre link to the ISP is set up	Look at the Wi-Fi, the address and the login
Blinks twice a second	Off	The ONT is trying to connect	Wait for PON to go steady
Off	Blinks once every 2 seconds	No fibre, or no light signal reaching the ONT	Check the fibre is plugged in and not bent in a curve tighter than 30 mm, then call the ISP
Off, or blinking twice a second	Same as PON	The ISP’s equipment is blocking the ONT, or the lights are abnormal	Call the ISP
Blinks once every 2 seconds	Blinks once every 2 seconds	Hardware fault	Call the ISP

For a box that answers on the other address, the 192.168.1.1 sign-in steps apply. If no router page loads on any address, the checklist for a router page that will not load covers the browser and network causes.

Conclusion

First match your box: a Huawei fibre ONT, a cable modem, or a Starlink kit behind your own router. For the 192.168.100.1 login, use that box’s sticker username and password, leave the ISP’s account alone, and read the lights before you reach for the reset pin. For boxes on other addresses, browse the router addresses grouped by device family.
