Piso WiFi in the Philippines | Pause Time, Login and Free Tools

Save the minutes you paid for, open your Piso WiFi portal, and fix common connection problems whether you use the service or manage a machine.

Piso WiFi is coin-operated internet sold by the minute across the Philippines. You pay with coins, a voucher code, GCash or Maya, then a timer counts down. On most machines you can freeze that timer at 10.0.0.1 and finish your minutes later.

What Piso WiFi Is and How It Works

Piso WiFi is the name Filipinos use for pay-as-you-go internet sold from a small coin-operated box. You will find these machines outside sari-sari stores, in dormitory hallways, at barangay centers and around transport terminals. One machine shares a single home or business broadband line with everyone nearby. You buy minutes, not data, and the clock starts the moment you pay.

How a Coin-Operated WiFi Session Works

Every machine runs a captive portal, a local page that opens before you can browse. You reach it at a private address, usually 10.0.0.1, after joining the network.

Drop a coin, enter a voucher code, or pay through GCash or Maya. The portal credits your payment and a timer starts counting down. Rates are set by whoever owns the machine, so the same five pesos can buy very different amounts of time from one shop to the next.

When the timer hits zero your access stops. Pause it first and the remaining minutes wait for you.

How to Identify Your Piso WiFi Platform

The box is the hardware. The software inside it decides what buttons you see. Five systems cover almost every machine in the country, and they are LPB Piso WiFi, AdoPiSoft, PisoFi, JuanFi and 1Click.

This matters more than it sounds. Pause limits, admin addresses and whether a paused session survives a power cut all change from one system to the next.

Most machines never say which one they run. The portal screen gives it away, and our free checker can help identify the system you are using.

Find Your Portal Address in 30 Seconds

Most portals sit at 10.0.0.1, but not all of them. Machines built on TP-Link or MikroTik routers often use a different gateway, and older setups use addresses that look almost identical to the standard one. If 10.0.0.1 will not open, you are probably on a different address.

Pick what matches your setup and the tool below will suggest where your portal lives.

Answer the questions above and your portal address appears here

Common portal addresses

AddressNotes
10.0.0.1 Standard on most LPB, AdoPiSoft and PisoFi machines
10.10.0.1 Alternate gateway on some LPB units
10.10.10.1 Older LPB configurations
10.5.50.1 Some LPB vendo setups
192.168.1.1 Machines built on TP-Link, D-Link or similar router hardware
192.168.0.1 Some router-based builds

Not Sure Which System You Are Using

Answer a few questions about your portal screen and this checker will name the most likely system. You will get a direct link to that platform's guide, with its pause limits, admin address and default behavior after a power cut.

If the answers are unclear, the checker says so instead of guessing.

Start Here With These Four Guides

Four guides cover what most people come here for. Start with whichever matches your problem right now.

Pausing and Resuming Your Session

The Pause button freezes your timer, so unused minutes are still there when you come back. Our guide covers the full steps and where the button sits on each system. It also explains how long a pause lasts and what to do when there is no Pause button at all.

Reaching 10.0.0.1

This private address is where your portal lives. Learn why it is not a website and why you must type http instead of https. The guide also shows how to open it on Android, iPhone, Windows and Mac. It lists the five most common reasons the page refuses to load.

Logging In to the Portal

Joining the network is only the first step. The guide walks through opening the portal and paying with coins, a voucher code, GCash or Maya, then starting your session. It also covers the difference between logging out and pausing, which surprises a lot of people.

LPB Piso WiFi

LPB Piso WiFi is one of the most searched platforms among Piso WiFi users. The guide explains logging in, pausing and reaching the admin panel. It also covers default credentials and why a paused session is usually lost after a power cut. You will also see how LPB compares with the four other platforms.

Piso WiFi by Platform

The first five are software systems. The last covers machines built on TP-Link routers, which often use a different portal address.

LPB Piso WiFi

The most searched system. You will usually find the Pause button directly below the session timer on the portal screen.

1Click Piso WiFi

Runs a lightweight portal reached at the usual local address. The Pause button sits on the portal screen when the owner has enabled it.

Coming soon

AdoPiSoft

Recognizable by its large circular timer graphic. Admins can cap how many times a single session may be paused.

Coming soon

PisoFi

Syncs sessions to the cloud, so a paused session can survive a router reboot or a power cut.

Coming soon

JuanFi

Open source and built on MikroTik hardware, so pause behavior depends on how the operator configured the hotspot script.

Coming soon

TP-Link builds

Machines built on TP-Link routers may use 192.168.1.1 instead of 10.0.0.1. Check your router settings or device information if the portal does not open.

Not sure which one you have? The checker above will narrow it down.

For Vendo Owners and Operators

If you run a Piso WiFi machine yourself, the settings that cause the most customer complaints are usually switched off rather than broken. Pause Time is the clearest example. Our owner guides cover what to change and where to find it.

Enabling Pause Time on Your Machine

Pause Time is available on many systems but is often left switched off, so customers never see the button. Turning it on costs nothing and cuts complaints, because paused sessions stop using your bandwidth. The guide covers the setting, where it hides, and the pause limit worth setting.

Reaching the Admin Panel Safely

The admin panel controls rates, the network name and every portal setting. It also ships with a factory password that is public knowledge. The guide covers safe access and the first change to make.

Here as a customer instead? The pause guide has what you need.

Common Problems and Quick Fixes

These three come up again and again, and each usually has a simple cause.

The portal will not open

Most of the time the browser searched for the address instead of opening it. A VPN or Android's Private DNS setting can also block the portal from loading.

There is no Pause button

The feature is there, but the owner has to switch it on. If the button is missing, the pause guide explains what you can do next.

Coming soon

My session expired while paused

Most machines cap how long a pause can last. Once that limit passes, the timer restarts on its own and your minutes run out while you are away.

Something else going wrong? The troubleshooting guides cover the less common causes.

Why You Can Trust This Site

This site is independent. We do not sell machines, resell any platform, or take money from the companies behind the systems we write about. That matters here, because some information you find online about pausing and portal addresses may be incomplete or outdated.

How We Research and Verify Every Guide

Every guide is checked against the platform's own documentation where it exists, and against what operators and users report where it does not. Machines differ by firmware and by setup, so where behavior varies we say so instead of picking one answer.

We cannot test every machine in the country. Where something is reported rather than verified, the guide says so. Each page carries the date it was last checked, and there is a way to tell us when something is out of date.

Piso WiFi Questions People Ask Most

What is 10.0.0.1 in Piso WiFi?

It is a private address that points to the machine you are connected to, not to a website on the internet. Type it into your browser's address bar after joining the network, and the portal opens where you pay, pause and log out.

Is 10.0.0.0.1 the same as 10.0.0.1?

No. 10.0.0.0.1 has an extra zero and is not a valid address. Many machines redirect it anyway, which is why it keeps spreading. The correct address is 10.0.0.1, typed with http at the start rather than https. Spaced versions will not load at all.

Does pausing use any of my paid time?

No. While a session is paused the countdown stops completely and no data passes through. Your remaining minutes sit on the machine until you tap Resume. Pausing is not the same as disconnecting, which on most machines lets the timer keep running.

Can I resume my session on a different phone?

No. Your session is tied to the MAC address of the device that started it, so another phone or laptop cannot pick it up. This is deliberate, because it stops anyone else from taking over the time you paid for.

How many minutes does one peso buy?

That depends entirely on the machine, because the owner sets the rates. Two machines on the same street can give very different amounts of time for the same coin. The portal shows the current rate before you pay, so check it first.

Is Piso WiFi safe to use?

It is fine for ordinary browsing, but these networks are shared and the portal connection may not provide the same protection as a private connection. Avoid typing banking passwords or card details while connected. Save anything sensitive for a network you trust, and never share your session screen with strangers.
