Member: 712940 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | Unlocking Huawei E220 for dummies (me) So before I buy via paypal please help: I have a Huawei E220 modem from Vodafone Spain (prepaid package) This (running with the VF-prepaidcard) is the only connetction to the internet. I now would like to use the Yoigo Prepaidcard. I reflashed my modem with following file from Huawei: E220-UTPSB002D03SP16C03 (Normal) (6870 KB) 14-Jan-2008 The Vodafone Card works. With the Yoigo Card it is possible to enter SIM number, which is accepted without a "wrong or no SIM message" But there is no Network (GRPS or HSDPA) found, trying to connect is followed by "You canīt connect before register an available network" Is this a problem because of an existing simlock or another problem. I do not have a problem to spent 15 Euro, but maybe it is not necessary ? If I have to unlock. Is this the requested Firmware or where do I get the right (for unlocking) one (please with link) I downloaded the Multiple Client. Can I see if the E220 is simlocked without buying the credits first? How shall I remove the card later (I have read that it is advised while unlocking) ? But I lose my internetconnection then (as there is no other way for me to go online), how shall I run the unlock then? I think it is done online via the server, or am I wrong? Thanks alot for your help !! |

Member: 712940 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | First I flashed the E220 with the Firmware the Client asks for. Re-installed E220, works fine with the original Vodafone card. Shows 7.2 Mbit max now. Downloaded multi-client. Read says: modem ports not available De-installed E220 and tried re-installing at all 4 USB ports . Same message. Device manager shows same results for all usb ports: Under "modem" (device manager) "Huawei Mobile Connect - 3G Modem" shows 7 tabs Under "modem" (tab) it says "Port: Com3" There is another entry in the device manager named "Ports (COM & LPT) now and within "Huawei Mobile Connect - 3G PC UI Interface (COM4) 5 tabs within and under "port settings" (tab) -- "advanced" it says COM port number : COM4 Tried the Yoigo Card again. It accepts the PIN but does not recieve a signal strengh wether GSM only or WCDMA only is checked. Anything I can do? I do not have any other Computer I can install the modem on (computer at work does not give me administrator rights). Kind regards |

Member: 721608 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | Hi there everyone. Operating XPSP2, on a dualcore, 2.80GHz, 1000mg ram. I have a vodafone mobile connect modem Huawei E220, vodafone G3 Spain, using USB 2.0. The promised download speed is 3.6mg, but all I get is 15kb. One week ago for eight hours the download rate went up to 110kb, why I do not know and this speed has not returned; I am back to an average of 15kb. I understand that signal strength plays a great part in download, but the much higher download rate I experienced came at a time when the signal was rather poor. My question(s) is this, is the poor throughput due to some kind of restriction placed by Vodafone ? Or has it something to do with settings in the modem itself ? Or has it something to do with settings on my computer ? And if so what can I do about any of them ? Also I have recently download a firmware update for the E220 from http://www.vodacom.co.za/services/mo.../downloads.jsp. I have also downloaded VMC 9.3.1.0.8940.exe from the same site. Does anyone know if they will be ok to use for vodafone Spain ? Answers most apreciated and thanks for your time. Syr |
