Frequently Asked Questions on Troubleshooting your Globe AT HOME 5G WiFi
The router is locked to your registered home address upon application.
- If moved outside your assigned location, the service will automatically be blocked.
- To keep your connection active, always use the device in its registered location.
For the best experience, we recommend disconnecting devices when not in use. If you need to keep multiple devices connected, we suggest only using 8-15 devices for optimal performance. Too many connected devices can affect the overall experience, depending on how each device is used.
If you're having trouble connecting, you may try these steps:
- Check Signal Strength: Use the signal strength indicator on the touch screen to find the best placement for your router.
- Reboot the Router: Go to the Menu Button > Settings > Reboot, or unplug the router for 10 seconds, then plug it back in.
- Check Wi-Fi Connection: Make sure you're connected to the correct Wi-Fi network. Use the QR code on the touch screen to connect easily.
- Switch Wi-Fi Frequency: If you're near the router, use the 5GHz connection for faster speeds. If you're farther away, try the 2.4GHz option for better range.
- Test Internet Speed: Use the built-in speed test feature or connect your device to Wi-Fi and test your speed with Ookla.
- Optimize Router Location: Place the router near a window to reduce obstacles and improve signal strength.
Yes, if you're unsatisfied within 7 days, you can return the router in good condition for a full refund of ₱1999. You’ll receive a ₱1,100 device deposit refund within 7 days, provided the device is returned in good condition.
To be eligible for a refund, your router must meet the following criteria:

Serviceability checking is still recommended with validation in the signal indicators of our router when placed inside your home. This is because 5G has multiple frequencies and our home WiFi unit may also use a different band from mobile to ensure the best experience.
