Piso WiFi Admin Login: Access, Defaults and Recovery

The Piso WiFi admin panel is where owners control a machine. It is separate from the customer portal. Customers use the portal at 10.0.0.1 to pay and check a timer. Owners use the admin panel at 10.0.0.1/admin to set rates, check sales, manage users, set pause rules, print vouchers, and update settings.

This is the full admin login guide. Earlier pillars trailered this page on purpose, so they would not duplicate it. The Login pillar covers customer login in full. The Pause Time pillar covers pause rules in full. The Rates pillar covers rate strategy in full. The Voucher guide will cover voucher rules in full. This page covers admin access and admin tasks in full: how to reach the panel, how to log in the first time, how to change defaults safely, where each main setting lives by platform, and what to do when admin login fails.

Answer: Connect to the machine’s own WiFi network, turn off mobile data and any VPN, open http://10.0.0.1/admin in the browser address bar, sign in with that machine’s admin credentials, and change the default password on first login. If the panel does not load, use the gateway address shown on your device with /admin at the end.

How to Access the Admin Panel

Admin access has one strict requirement: you must be connected to the machine network. The admin panel will not load from mobile data, from home, or from another WiFi network, in the usual local setup. Cloud connected platforms offer remote dashboards as a separate feature, covered later in this page, but the local panel at 10.0.0.1/admin is local by design.

Phone showing a simple login form with a key icon and a small settings gear — The admin login is for the machine operator only. Use the address and credentials for your own machine, and change the default password on first login. Illustrative example only, real admin pages differ by platform and version.

Connect your phone or laptop to the Piso WiFi network of the machine you manage. Check the network name carefully. A similar name nearby may belong to a different machine.
Turn off mobile data and any VPN for a moment, so your device does not skip the local network.
Open a browser and type http://10.0.0.1/admin in the address bar, not in the search box. Use http, not https, for this local page.
Enter the admin username and password for that machine. Default credentials vary by platform and build, and are listed in the next section with the warning to change them on first login.
Check that you see the admin dashboard, not the customer portal. The dashboard shows sales, users, settings, or a similar owner view, depending on the platform. If you see a timer and a payment button, you opened the customer portal, not the admin panel. Add “/admin” to the address and try again.

If 10.0.0.1 does not load, find the gateway address from the Router field on iPhone, the Gateway field on Android, or the Default Gateway field on a laptop, as explained in the Login pillar, and use that address with “/admin” at the end. Some machines use a different gateway address set by the operator, and the gateway field on your device is the correct address for that machine.

Default Admin Credentials by Platform: Check Your Own Machine First

Default credentials are a starting point, not a guarantee. Builds change, a previous owner may have changed the password, and a supplier may have set a custom password before delivery. Always check the sticker on the machine, the manual, or the supplier first, and change the admin password on first login.

Summary only. Defaults vary by build, so never state one list as universal. LPB is commonly reported as admin with 123456789 in the TP-Link guide, while some operator reports give 12345678 or admin. AdoPiSoft varies by version: older builds are commonly reported as admin with admin, newer builds as administrator with admin1234, and some operator reports give admin123. PisoFi is commonly reported as administrator with admin12345. JuanFi varies by build, with some operator reports giving admin and no universal default, and generic builds are sometimes reported as admin with admin only. JuanFi and newer systems such as Ruijie and SmartFi, JLink, 1Click, and WiFi5Soft vary by build, supplier, and firmware. Defaults are a starting point only, they must be verified against the sticker, manual, or supplier for your own machine, and they must be changed on first login.

For the full table by platform, see the post Default Admin Usernames and Passwords. That post is the canonical page for the defaults table, so this pillar keeps only this summary and a link by page name to it, rather than repeating the full table here.

If none of the defaults work, do not guess repeatedly. Repeated failed logins can lock an account on some systems, and guessing wastes time that a supplier check would save. Contact the supplier with the platform, version, and machine details, and follow the locked out steps later in this page.

First login is the most important admin session, because defaults are public knowledge and a machine left on defaults can be changed by anyone who connects to its network. Complete this checklist in order, before you advertise the machine.

Step 1: Change the admin password

Find the admin or profile settings in the panel, change the password to a strong password you have not used elsewhere, save, and log out and back in to confirm the new password works. Write the new password in a safe place that only authorised owners can access, such as a password manager, not on a note stuck to the machine. If you manage several machines, use a different admin password for each machine, or use co-admin accounts with limited permissions where the platform supports them, as PisoFi does in its official features.

Step 2: Check the WiFi name and portal branding

Check the WiFi name, also called the SSID, and the site name shown on the portal. Change them from a generic default to a name customers will recognise, such as the shop name plus Piso WiFi, if the platform allows it. Check the portal branding where offered, such as AdoPiSoft rebrandable portal settings, and make sure the portal shows the correct rates and contact details for the operator, not a supplier demo name.

Step 3: Back up settings

Find the backup feature for your platform, if offered, and create a backup before you change rates, pause, or network settings. PisoFi lists backup and restore for settings, data, and promos in its official features. Other platforms offer similar backup options in different menus. A backup taken before changes lets you restore a working setup if a later change breaks the portal. Store the backup file safely, with the platform name, version, and date in the file name.

Step 4: Test as a customer

After first login changes, test as a customer with a small payment. Join the network as a customer, open the portal, pay a small amount, check the timer, and check that pause behaves as you set it. Testing as a customer catches portal, rate, and pause mistakes before real customers find them. Do not skip this test because the admin panel looked correct. Admin panel correctness and customer portal correctness are different things.

Change passwords: admin and WiFi are separate

The admin password controls the panel. The WiFi password, where one is set, controls joining the network. Change them separately, use a different password for each, and never use the admin password as the WiFi password. After a change, log out and back in to the panel to confirm the admin password works, then test as a customer to confirm customers can still join and pay. Write admin passwords only in a password manager or another safe place for authorised owners, never on a note on the machine.

Change the WiFi name (SSID): what to check

The WiFi name, also called the SSID, is the network name customers see. Change it from a generic default to a recognisable shop name where the platform allows it, keep it free of personal data, and check the portal branding at the same time so portal rates and operator contact details match the new name. After a rename, all devices must reconnect to the new name, so rename during a quiet time and update the sign near the machine at the same time.

Where Main Admin Settings Live by Platform

Menu labels vary by platform and firmware version. The paths below are reported in TP-Link pause time guide and in official feature lists, and are useful as a starting point. Verify them on your own build, because firmware updates rename menus. If a path does not match your panel, search the panel for the setting name, such as “pause” or “rates”, rather than following an old path blindly. Changing the wrong setting while searching, such as a WiFi name or a network address, can break customer sessions.

LPB admin settings

Portal settings: Portal Settings, with Insert Coin Mode and Pause and Resume Time reported in TP-Link guide for pause control.
Rates: set in the rate or portal settings area, with separate options where offered for coin and voucher modes. Rate strategy is in the Rates pillar, not repeated here.
Users and sales: check the dashboard and sales sections for active users, session status, and sales reports, as listed on the official LPB site for remote monitoring.
Licence: check the licence tier, user limit, and validity period in the licence or account area, and confirm renewal terms before expiry.

AdoPiSoft admin settings

Portal and session controls: Settings, then User Portal Settings, then Session Controls, with Allow Pause Time reported in TP-Link guide for pause control.
Rates: time rates and data rates are set in the rate settings area, as listed on the official AdoPiSoft site. Check whether you are setting a time rate or a data rate, because they behave differently, as explained in the Rates pillar.
Users and bandwidth: check the user management and bandwidth limiter settings, with a per user limit to stop one user from taking the whole connection, as listed on the official site.
Licence: check the licence tier, user limit, and admin user limit in the licence area, with different terms by version, as explained in the Platforms Compared guide.

PisoFi admin settings

PisoFi admin settings are wider than the other platforms, because the official features page lists many sections. The main ones for daily admin work are:

Portal configuration: site info, custom banners, WiFi options with pause enable and disable, maximum pause time, pause validity, resume on connect, pause on disconnect, tethering control, WiPass control, and minimum coin settings.
Session options: new session expiry, auto switch to the next session, and auto merge of different time and data sessions.
Clients: client sessions with active clients, time and data, speed limits, transfer, pause, disconnect, add, extend, or deduct time, and custom notifications.
Sales monitoring: daily and monthly views, filters by machine, sales type, and date, and downloadable reports.
WiPass and voucher: custom voucher generation with time, price, and speed settings, secured and unsecured vouchers, and print and download options.
Rates: default rate per peso, separate WiFi, desktop, and charging rates, with custom descriptions.
Network: static IP for the vendo, DNS server choice, custom DNS, custom captive portal domain, port prioritisation, and IP lease display.
Backup and remote: backup and restore for settings, data, and promos, and remote monitoring through a tunnel based tool, as listed in its official features.

Do not change network settings, such as static IP or DNS, unless you understand them, because a wrong network setting can break browsing while the portal still loads, as explained in the Troubleshooting guide.

JuanFi admin settings

JuanFi admin settings vary by build, because each operator configures the hotspot script. Look for Pause Time or Session Pause under portal or session settings, and for rate settings in the hotspot configuration for that build. Test every change as a customer, because there is no single JuanFi default to fall back on. Keep a note of your own build settings, with the version and date, because community guides for other builds may not match yours.

Admin Dashboard Tour: What Each Section Is For

The dashboard is the first screen after admin login, and it is a monitoring screen, not a settings screen. Menu labels vary by platform and firmware, but the sections below are the ones owners check most often. Do not change a network setting from the dashboard without a backup, as explained in the first login checklist above.

Active users and sessions: who is connected now, how much time or data each session has left, and which sessions are paused, stuck, or expired. Start here when a customer reports a problem, before changing a rate or a password.
Sales: daily and monthly totals, split by coin and voucher where the platform offers that split. Compare sales with cash collected and with voucher redemptions separately, as explained in the sales section below.
Rates and portal settings: the tiers customers see, the coin mode and voucher mode toggles, and the pause toggles. Rate strategy is in the Rates pillar, and portal toggles are explained in the portal settings section below, so this tour does not repeat those steps.
Licence and account: licence tier, user limit, and validity period. Check renewal terms before expiry, so a machine does not stop selling time on a busy day.
Firmware and system: version, update notes, and storage health where offered. Check this section before an update, back up first, and test one machine before updating the rest.

Managing Users and Sessions From the Admin Panel

The admin panel lets you see who is connected, how much time or data they have left, and what state their session is in. Use that view to help customers, not to watch them. The panel lists session status, such as active, paused, or expired, depending on the platform. It does not give you the content of https browsing, and you should not try to collect that content.

Common admin actions for a customer problem

Check the session list first, before you tell a customer to pay again. If the session is still listed, the time may be recoverable. If it is not listed, it has expired or been cleared.
Pause a client session from the client list, where the platform offers it, such as PisoFi client session pause, if a customer asks you to hold their time while they step away and the portal pause is not available to them.
Extend, deduct, or add time, where the platform offers it, only after you have checked the session and the payment. Adding time without checking can double credit a payment that was already applied.
Disconnect a session, where offered, only if the session is stuck, abusive, or blocking the machine. Disconnecting a normal customer without a reason will cause disputes.
Transfer time, where offered, such as PisoFi live transfer, only if the operator confirms that the feature is enabled and that both sessions are listed. Transfer rules in full are in the Voucher guide.

Co-admin accounts and permissions

Where a platform supports co-admin accounts, use them for staff who need limited access, such as sales checks or voucher printing, without full settings access. PisoFi lists co-admin accounts with permissions per account, for WiFi clients, sales, WiPass, and other areas, in its official features. Set permissions to the minimum needed for each staff role, and change co-admin passwords when staff change. Do not share your main admin password with staff or customers.

Setting Rates and Pause From the Admin Panel: Admin Steps Only

Rate strategy is in the Rates pillar. Pause rules are in the Pause Time pillar. This section gives only the admin steps that apply those strategies, so you know where to click, not what rate to choose.

Admin steps for rates

Log in to the admin panel from the machine network.
Find the rate settings area for your platform, and check whether you are setting a coin rate, a voucher rate, a WiFi rate, a desktop rate, or a charging rate, where those are separate.
Set the amount, the minutes or megabytes, and the expiry for each tier, and label each tier clearly.
Save, and reboot only if prompted by the platform.
Test each tier as a customer with a small payment, and check that the timer, the amount credited, and any voucher code for that tier work.
Update the sign near the machine at the same time as the portal, so portal and sign rates match.

Admin steps for pause

Log in to the admin panel from the machine network.
Find portal settings or session controls for your platform, using the paths in the platform section above as a starting point.
Turn on Pause Time, Pause and Resume, or Allow Pause Time, depending on the label.
Set the limit for your platform: duration on LPB, count on AdoPiSoft, duration and validity on PisoFi, and the build setting on JuanFi.
Set the pause toggle separately for coin mode and voucher mode if your platform shows them separately.
Save, reboot only if prompted, then test as a customer with a small coin payment and a small voucher payment, if you offer both. Check that the button appears, that the timer stops, and that resume works on the same device.

Portal Settings: Coin Mode, Voucher Mode, and Why a Box Disappears

Portal settings control what the customer sees before payment. The two main toggles are coin mode and voucher mode. Coin mode shows the insert coin flow. Voucher mode shows the voucher or WiPass field. Many platforms let an owner turn one mode on and the other off, and many platforms let an owner set pause separately for each mode. That is why a portal can show a Pause button for a coin session and hide it for a voucher session, or the reverse, and why a voucher box can vanish after a settings change. A vanished box is usually a toggle, not a broken portal, and the fix is in the panel, not on the customer phone.

When you change a portal toggle, check three things before you open to customers. First, confirm which mode you changed, coin or voucher, and whether pause follows that mode. Second, test both modes as a customer with a small payment if you offer both, and confirm the timer, the amount credited, and the pause button behave as expected in each mode. Third, update the sign near the machine at the same time as the portal, so the sign, the portal, and the actual behaviour match. Platform menu paths for these toggles are in the settings section above, and rate strategy for each mode is in the Rates pillar, so this section does not repeat those steps.

Sales, Bandwidth, and Firmware: Daily Admin Work

Sales reports

Check sales reports daily or weekly, depending on how busy the machine is. Compare the sales report with cash collected, and with voucher redemptions separately, before you assume a discrepancy is theft. A calibration drift, a voucher timing difference, or a session that was extended by an admin can all cause a small difference. PisoFi lists downloadable sales reports in common file formats, and other platforms offer similar dashboard reports. Export a copy for your records, with the date range in the file name.

Bandwidth limits

Set a per user bandwidth limit, so one user does not take the whole connection. AdoPiSoft lists a built in bandwidth limiter per user on its official site. PisoFi lists global bandwidth and per user minimum and maximum limits in its official features. LPB lists bandwidth control on its official site. Test the limit as a customer after you change it, because a limit set too low will make video calls fail, while a limit set too high will let one downloader slow everyone else.

Firmware updates

Check for firmware updates in the admin panel regularly, and read the update notes before you apply an update. Updates can fix portal, session, and security bugs, but they can also rename menus, change pause behaviour, or change rate settings on some platforms. Back up settings before an update, apply the update during a quiet time, and test as a customer after the update, with a small payment, before you open to full traffic. Do not update all machines at once. Update one machine, test it for a day, and only then update the rest.

Remote Admin Access: What It Is and What It Is Not

Local admin access at 10.0.0.1/admin requires a connection to the machine network. Remote admin access is a separate feature on some platforms, and it works differently.

LPB lists cloud connected remote monitoring and management on its official site, through its own dashboard.
AdoPiSoft lists remote online management on its official site, with sales, users, and other machine aspects checked over the internet.
PisoFi lists remote monitoring through a tunnel based tool, with real time machine interaction and navigation to the actual local admin interface, in its official features.

Remote access is convenient, but it also exposes the admin panel to the internet if it is not secured. Use a strong, unique admin password, use co-admin accounts with limited permissions where offered, and turn off remote access if you do not need it. Never share a remote admin link or token with customers, and never enter an admin password into a third party app that claims to manage your machine unless you have verified that app from its official source. The Google Play admin helper app discussed in the Platforms Compared guide is a third party helper, not an official platform app, and its developer data declaration is not an independent audit.

Admin login problems are different from customer login problems, because the panel, not the portal, is the target. Work through these checks in order.

Panel does not load at all

Check that you are connected to the machine network, that mobile data and VPN are off, and that you typed http://10.0.0.1/admin in the address bar, not in the search box. Check the gateway address from the Router or Gateway field on your device, and use that address with “/admin” if 10.0.0.1 does not load. If the panel does not load on two devices, the machine may be off, rebooting, or down, and the owner checks in the Troubleshooting guide apply.

Credentials rejected

Check for typing errors, including capital letters, and check that you are not entering a WiFi password or a customer voucher code in the admin fields. Check the default credentials table in this guide against your platform and build, and check the sticker, manual, or supplier documentation for a custom password set before delivery. If the password was changed by a previous owner, contact that owner or the supplier. Do not guess repeatedly, because some systems lock an account after repeated failures.

Panel loads but settings do not save

Back up settings first, if the panel still allows it. Check whether a reboot is prompted after save. Check whether you changed the setting for the correct mode, such as coin versus voucher, or WiFi versus desktop. Check storage, including a failing microSD card on small board machines, as reported in operator troubleshooting notes, and check the backup feature for your platform. Do not keep changing settings until the save problem is fixed, because each failed save can leave the machine in a mixed state.

Forgot admin password: recovery steps

Check the sticker, manual, supplier documentation, and your password manager for the current password. Many “forgot password” cases are a password stored in the wrong place, not a lost password.
Check whether the platform offers a password reset in the panel, a co-admin account with permission to reset passwords, or a supplier reset procedure. PisoFi lists co-admin accounts and password reset for user accounts in its official features, but admin password reset procedures vary by platform and version.
Contact the supplier with the platform, version, machine details, and proof of ownership, if required, and follow the supplier reset procedure for that platform.
As a last resort, and only if the supplier guide for your platform says to do so, perform a factory reset, after backing up settings if the panel still allows it, and after noting the licence key, version, rates, WiFi name, and voucher codes in use. A factory reset can wipe rates, WiFi name, passwords, vouchers, and sales history. After a reset, change defaults immediately, restore settings from backup if available, and test as a customer with a small payment before you open to customers again.

Admin Security Checklist

Use this checklist monthly, and after any staff change or supplier visit.

Admin password changed from default, strong, unique, and stored safely, not on the machine.
Co-admin accounts limited to the permissions each staff role needs, with passwords changed when staff change.
Remote access off if not needed, and secured with a strong password if needed.
Firmware checked for updates, with a backup taken before each update, and a customer test after each update.
Settings backed up, with the platform, version, and date in the backup file name, and stored safely.
Licence tier, user limit, and validity period checked, with renewal date noted before expiry.
Portal rates, pause rules, and sign rates checked to match, after any rate or pause change.

How do I log in to Piso WiFi admin for the first time?

Connect to the machine network, turn off mobile data and VPN, open http://10.0.0.1/admin in the address bar, and enter the admin username and password for your platform and build, from the defaults table in this guide, or from the sticker, manual, or supplier documentation. Change the admin password immediately after first login, and test as a customer with a small payment.

Customer login at 10.0.0.1 is for paying and checking a timer. Admin login at 10.0.0.1/admin is for owners to change machine settings. Customers should use the plain address. Owners should use the admin address, while connected to the machine network. Full customer steps are in the Login pillar.

Can I log in to Piso WiFi admin remotely?

It depends on the platform. LPB, AdoPiSoft, and PisoFi list remote management features on their official sites, through their own dashboards or tunnel based tools. Local admin access at 10.0.0.1/admin requires a connection to the machine network. Remote access, where offered, needs a strong password and limited permissions, and should be turned off if you do not need it.

What should I do if I forgot my Piso WiFi admin password?

Check the sticker, manual, supplier documentation, and password manager first. Check whether the platform offers a co-admin reset or a supplier reset procedure. Contact the supplier with platform, version, and machine details if needed. A factory reset is a last resort, with a backup first if possible, because it can wipe rates, WiFi name, passwords, vouchers, and sales history.

Can I have more than one admin user?

Where the platform supports co-admin accounts, yes, with permissions per account. PisoFi lists co-admin accounts with permissions for WiFi clients, sales, WiPass, and other areas in its official features. Other platforms offer different admin user limits by licence tier. Check your licence tier and platform documentation for the number of admin users allowed.

Why does the admin panel show different settings from the customer portal?

Because the admin panel controls settings, while the customer portal shows the result of those settings. A rate, pause rule, or WiFi name set in the admin panel may need a save, and where prompted, a reboot, before it appears on the portal. A browser showing a stale cached portal can also hide a new setting. Test in an incognito window after a change, and check that you changed the setting for the correct mode, such as coin versus voucher.

Is it safe to use default admin credentials?

No, not for normal operation. Default credentials are public knowledge, and a machine left on defaults can be changed by anyone who connects to its network. Change the admin password on first login, use a strong unique password, and do not share it with customers.

How often should I check the admin panel?

Check sales and session status daily or weekly, depending on how busy the machine is. Check firmware, backup, licence validity, and security settings monthly, and after any staff change, supplier visit, or rate change. A regular admin check catches calibration drift, stuck sessions, and licence expiry before customers report them.

What to Read Next

If you need to log in as a customer, go to the Login pillar. If you have a paid session and need to pause it, go to the Pause Time pillar. If you want machine types and parts, go to the Vendo pillar. If you want to compare platforms, go to the Platforms Compared guide. If you want rate strategy, go to the Rates pillar. If you paid by voucher, go to the Voucher guide. If you want income, cost, location, and permit factors, go to the Business guide. If the panel, portal, or machine is not working, go to the Troubleshooting guide. Each page covers its own topic in full, so this page does not repeat their customer steps or their rate and pause strategies.
