How to flash a Beeline USB modem for all operators?

What is firmware?

The term “firmware” is known in the modern world; it means software that controls a certain device. Sometimes the software crashes and the device does not work correctly. In this case, you need to reinstall the program - reflash the device.

Modem firmware also allows you to increase speed, expand functionality, and use it for all operators.

Wireless Internet is in great demand, no cable connections are needed. Modern 3G/4G modems are lightweight and compact, providing Internet access anywhere. The devices easily connect to a computer or smartphone and do not take up much space.

Select the model and click on the “Detect Card” button.

Next, the program will automatically unlock the device and provide a corresponding message in the window. After which the user will only have to specify the appropriate parameters in the profile.

Why do you need firmware for a 3G/4G modem?

There are times when we move to another place, or are going out of town to the country, and there we discover that our USB modem does not work well or does not work at all. If the coverage of another provider is better, then it makes sense to buy a new SIM card.

Often 3G/4G modems support only one operator and work with one SIM card. Many mobile operators block it for use with other SIM cards. Thus, for the new tariff you will have to purchase a new USB modem. But this is not profitable at all; there is no need to waste money.

It is possible to update the device without extra financial costs.

When changing operators, you do not need to buy a new USB modem, just update its software. Flashing makes it possible to use all SIM cards without additional costs. Software updating occurs using special programs and does not cause much difficulty .

After simple steps, the USB modem becomes universal, and it does not matter which company you purchased it from. You will be able to use SIM cards from other operators.

Special software can be downloaded completely free of charge; it is not difficult to find on official websites and other sources on the Internet.

The firmware itself happens quickly, the main thing is not to interrupt the process; you cannot turn off the power. You need to wait until the process is completed, otherwise it may be damaged.

How to flash a modem from Megafon and other operators for all SIM cards for FREE?

Today I will tell you how you can flash a modem from Megafon and other operators for all SIM cards for free.

I have a Megafon modem model E173. In order to unlock this modem, in addition to its model number, we need one more parameter, the IMEI code. IMEI is the individual number of the modem, which is set at the manufacturer's factory. It is located under the modem cover. This number is needed in order to enter it into one of the programs that we download on the Internet, and with the help of it we will receive an unlock code.
We insert this modem into the USB port of the computer. I inserted a modem with a non-standard SIM card, not with which the modem was sold, but with a SIM card from another mobile operator. Installed drivers for this modem and software. After this, the monitor displays a message that the card on this modem is not detected or is faulty.
Now you need to download a third-party application that works with HUAWEI modems. Open the website huawei.mobzon.ru. From this site we will download the application. The left column contains application assemblies for this modem. You can download any.
I chose version 3.0. Follow this link and scroll down. Download this application for Windows. You can download from a file hosting service or from Yandex disk. Also check the list to see if your modem is supported by this program.
We install it on the computer, it will replace the software that was originally installed from the manufacturer. With this program we will be able to connect, send SMS and make calls. Exit the standard Megafon application. Now we can launch a new application.
A third-party program has started. A window appears in which you need to enter a code to unlock our device.
We will get this code using another program, it is called Huawei Unlock Calculator. You can download this program by following the link: https://yadi.sk/d/3oUh_r6eemt2k. Install and run this program. A window appears and in it you need to enter the IMEI code, which I talked about at the very beginning.
After entering the code, press the “calk” button in order to generate our code. The first flash code is for flashing the modem. Code V1 for modems of older versions and with old firmware. Code V2 to unlock newer modems.
Since we have 10 attempts to unlock, we will try to enter both codes. Copy the code and paste it into this window. Click OK.
Unfortunately, this code did not work. Now enter the second code. The second code is correct, the device is initializing. Our modem was completely blocked. Now we can use it with SIM cards from any mobile operator.
