These aren’t signal boosters as such, but they can be placed in positions that might help get a stronger signal, eg through a window. This isn’t something I’ve come across personally, but an external antenna may help in some situations. Some people in the comments have mentioned signal issues. One more feature that has been added is support for remote connect and disconnect using the Huawei Mobile app, which may be handy for some people: Different language options, including Arabic, Chinese and Russian (see screengrabs below for full set and monthly limit setup).There is a new monthly data counter, you can set billing date and allowance to avoid going over your package limits 🙂.The data counter on the LED doesn’t reset after power off.My data is provided by virtual network Globalgig, I now get their name showing instead of 3, whose physical network they use.There is a prominent connect/disconnect button on the router homepage (see below).The LED display now has extra symbols for when data is being transmitted/received.Let me know in the comments if this fixes issues such as losing signal at random. This updates the web interface, and includes a new connect/disconnect button and support for the same feature via the Huawei mobile AppĮnjoy your new unbranded router. Finally, once everything has settled down run the last file, Update_WEBUI_15.100.09.00.03_E5_V7R1_V3R2.exe I don’t think this is essential, but having got this far you may as well.It doesn’t take very long, and the router will reboot itself a couple of times during the process. Run the firmware upgrade file E5776_Update_22.265.11.00.00.exe This is the stage that requires the password generated earlier.(This file isn’t included in the Huawei download, I got it from the German firmware upgrade package – see original post linked below) A reboot wouldn’t do any harm at this stage. First the new files are copied to the router, then the router should be recognised as a new device and the new drivers installed on your computer. Run the file Update_UTPS1.12.00.414_MAC1.12.00.414.exe This will update the drivers that are used to communicate with the router.If you get an “Error 10 Find Port Failed” message make sure that you have the drivers and connection software correctly installed, then try again. The following instructions should be carried out in the order stated.

If you have already done an upgrade (like I had) this won’t be required. If this is the first time you have upgraded the firmware it might be necessary to install an updated set of drivers onto the router, shown in step one. Connect your router via a MicroUSB cable, and wait a few minutes for the drivers to install.

Ignore the unlock code – that won’t do anything (including unlocking the SIM)!ĭownload firmware version 22.265.11.00.00 or get it from the Huawei link above. Make a note of the password, which should be an 8 digit number. You have been warned!īefore you start you need to have available the flash memory password, which can be calculated using this online tool. It goes without saying that any attempt to update firmware is at your own risk, and if it went wrong you could render your device useless. The original Huawei download also includes Mac and SD Card update options, so is much more flexible.
