Flash and unlock the ZTE MF823D modem. Flash and unlock modem ZTE MF823D Unlock modem s Huawei

ZTE MF823- one of the few modems present on the Russian market, which is built on the basis of a chipset Qualcomm 921 5. A very popular and powerful modem Huawei E392 was assembled on a very similar chipset, from which it even took over part of the internal architecture. However, these devices are completely different. Advantageously distinguishes ZTE MF823 the fact that the device now works not in the mode of a regular modem, but in the mode of emulation of a network card (RNDIS). Driver Free technology, which is used in the modem, eliminates the need to install drivers and special programs to control the modem. A Linux-like BusyBox system is running on board the modem, which certainly provides tremendous opportunities for configuring the network and for controlling the modem via the command line.

1. Install the program from the modem.
2. Plug into modem ZTE MF823 (Megaphone M100-3, Beeline ZTE MF823, Beeline ZTE MF823D) SIM card of a "foreign" operator.
3. Run the program from the modem in the case of Megaphone M100-3 Enter Unlock Code, and in the case of a modem Beeline ZTE MF823 enter the unlock code if you log into the modem via the Web interface.

This completes the process.

Pay for the goods (if you pay through an external payment system ( trading platform) and upon completion of payment you will see a button "

Unblocking and flashing a modem, be it Beeline, MegaFon, MTS, Tele2 or any other, despite the simplicity of the operation, is a crucial step. And yet it's worth it - the reward will be complete freedom in choosing the best tariff from any of the cellular providers.

a 3G / 4G

The motivation of the firmware is to change the tariff of the cellular provider without the need to buy your own for each of them modem.

The fact is that in the pursuit of additional profits, the cellular company blocks the use of SIM-cards of competing operators. In an amicable way, there is no physical reason to prohibit the use, for example, in modem e sold by Beeline, SIM from MegaFon, MTS, Tele2, Yota, Rostelecom and regional operators. Everything modem We use the same 3G and 4G standards (UMTS-900/2100 and LTE-800/2600, where the number stands for frequencies in megahertz). And then there is an opportunity to "untie", for example, device Huawei E1750 or router ZTE-MF90 + from MTS or Beeline.

Cell unlocking methods modem s and routers

There are three approaches to unlocking:

unlocking without firmware;

firmware with unlocked already done;

change of firmware version - then unlocking is performed separately.

Here are completely free and proven methods. You don't need to buy any "credits" or anything else - modem s and routers, if desired, will be unblocked "for free" and after unlocking they work flawlessly for 10 or more years.

How to unlock and flash modem s from "Beeline"

Don't make yourself unnecessary problems! Often you can limit yourself to a simple unlock modem but without reflashing it. This is the easiest way - your device will be working at 100%, because the highest goal of the subscriber is to get rid of the "binding" to the operator. The firmware only makes sense when modem or the router supports more high speed, but its “native” firmware makes it difficult to overclock it (the software limit of the maximum connection speed, “embedded” into the current software version, cannot be disabled in any other way) - this was the case, for example, in the first LTE modem ah Yota and in 3G modem e Huawei E1820.

How to unlock and flash modem ZTE MF180 ("Beeline") for all SIM cards

When connecting to a PC USB port for the first time modem installs the program "USB- modem Beeline "- an application imposed by the" Beeline "company.

It is unlikely to be useful - other programs are used

Previously, it was called BID ("Beeline Internet at Home"). The program window is hard-coded, closes everything on the Windows desktop. Inconvenient.

You can unlock the ZTE MF180 by replacing its native program, for example, with "MTS Connect Manager". Before flashing, the versions of "Beeline" and "MTS" may be incompatible, which is why it is necessary to replace the PCUI.VN file in memory modem a. To flash the ZTE MF180 you need:

correct PCUI.VN file;

MTS Connect-Manager firmware;

QPST software package.

You can easily find it on the Internet.

Use a laptop, preferably with Windows XP SP3. Please do the following.

Download and install the QPST app.

Download and unzip the required firmware files.

Insert the ZTE MF180 into a free USB port on your laptop and wait until the end of the standard Beeline program.

Go to Windows Device Manager ("Start - Control Panel - System - Device Manager") and check virtual devices modem and ZTE MF180 for which the appropriate drivers have been installed, in particular, the ZTE Diagnostics Interface. Remember which COM port this device is on - it will come in handy in QPST.

COM Disgnostics Interface Port

Run the QPST program and add the ZTE Diagnostics Interface port to it.

The application is ready to find the modem port

Click the add new port button.

Select your ZTE DI port

The header of the new device with your COM port is available. Launch the QPST - EFS Explorer component ("Start - Programs - Accessories - EFS Explorer").

EFS Explorer has detected a port with a modem

Confirm port selection - files will open your modem device.

There should be pcui.vn, due to which the modem does not accept other people's SIM

At the root of flash memory modem but there should be a PCUI.VN file - if it is not there, you will have to add it. Find and drag it into this window - PCUI.VN will be copied to the drive modem a.

Close EFS Explorer and launch the MTS firmware (original file DL_MF180_MTS_RU_EUV1.00.03.exe). In versions of Windows Vista and later, the "flasher" from "MTS" is launched with administrator rights.

It is important that the PC power is not reset

After you clicked the download button, device will be sewn. This will take up to 20 minutes. Don't touch anything !!! Interrupting the firmware can ruin the modem!

You have successfully reflashed the modem

After the end of the firmware, remove the "Beeline" program from the PC and use modem point without restrictions with unlimited tariffs of any operator. When reconnecting modem and "MTS Connect-Manager" will be installed to the USB port.

Do not forget to set up network profiles by checking the APN with the respective operator. If you have active access to the Network without settings, you will not need APN settings.

ZTE MF180 firmware for specific networks

You can download any software instead of MTS Connect Manager, be it MLT (MegaFon of Tajikistan), Egyptian Etisalat or whatever you want. Sometimes they do this - their firmware may contain a "treated" PCUI.VN - then they change it to ours, Russian.

If you are stitching for Yota - keep in mind: on " modem nom ”tariff Yota will not start up 3G modem s to the 3G network from MegaFon! This is the policy and marketing of the company, alas. No one has yet been able to get around this limitation directly. You need a "smartphone" or "tablet" SIM - at these tariffs you can use the 3G network, but you need to change the IMEI and fix the TTL. With other operators it is easier: they do not yet have a tariff exclusively for modem devices (only for 4G), you can also use the 3G network (where there is no 4G yet) without much difficulty.

The main disadvantage of the ZTE MF180 is that there is no HSUPA technology (high-speed uplink up to 5.76 Mbps). Only 384 kbit / s are available for transmission from the subscriber (limited speed WCDMA according to the 3G specification) and the incoming speed (HSDPA) is only up to 3.6 Mbit / s, therefore these modem We are already considered old.

ZTE MF823D Flash and Unlock

This device still popular- its mass start of sales fell on 2015 together with ZTE MF90 routers (+). These models support up to 42 Mbps downstream (DC-HSDPA +) and up to 5.76 Mbps uplink (HSUPA) upstream (HSUPA) on 3G networks, and up to 75 Mbps (roundtrip) on networks 4G (LTE). It is a joy to use them: the Internet channel becomes more symmetrical and allows you to satisfy the appetite of the most sophisticated subscribers who consume hundreds of gigabytes of traffic every month, and also come in handy in work via the Internet, where urgent sending of attached files by mail and video transmission from objects and video chat (video conferencing ) in good quality.

Modem ZTE MF823D is controlled not from the program, as its predecessors of the past years, but from any browser at the address m.home / index.html (or 192.168.0.1 by default): configuration and monitoring are carried out through the web interface, so you can a local network connected to the Internet from this modem a, manage its settings. Its firmware does not install a separate application in the Windows system, and after installing the drivers, ZTE creates only a shortcut "Beeline Internet". But this does not mean that it is worse to be unlocked. Please do the following.

Download and install the ZTE device driver package (, ZTEDrvSetup archive).

Plug your ZTE MF823 into a free USB slot and open My Computer. Modem will be defined as a virtual CD-ROM - give the command: right-click - "Eject".

Open the already familiar Windows Device Manager and find three unknown devices "ZTE MSM Technologies".

Launch any browser, for example Firefox and enter the address http://192.168.0.1/goform/goform_process?goformId=MODE_SWITCH&switchCmd=FACTORY - the device response will appear: ("result": "FACTORY: ok")

At the same time, the installation of unknown devices will begin - as in the case of the old ones ZTE, these will be three devices: ZTE Diagnostics Interface, ZTE Proprietary USB Modem and ZTE NMEA Device.

Remember the port number of the ZTE Diagnostics Interface (let it be COM8) and download the unlock file (the "treated" original is known as "diag1F40_F0AA.bin" or something similar).

Run the Windows command line with administrator rights and give the commands: cd \ (if the file is saved on the C drive :) and copy / b diag1F40_F0AA.bin COM8 (the port number on which the modem). The command line application will report that the file was copied successfully.

File copied

Install a terminal emulator such as Putty app, connect to the ZTE Diagnostics Interface port and enter AT + ZCDRUN = F. Modem will be available again as a CD-ROM, only now it will be unlocked.

Connect to your port and enter your commands

Everything! Modem ZTE MF823 is unlocked. Go to its web interface and write down the settings for all operators.

The article published below provides a simple configuration of a Beeline 4G modem of the ZTE-MF823D brand and an Upvel UR-354AN4G router

We unpack the router and connect our pre-configured modem to it in the USB socket. We transfer the network card of the computer to the mode of automatically receiving settings from the network. Turn on the power button of the device. Over time
the network card on the computer receives the network settings (by default, the network of the address space 192.168.10.x is used on the routers, the router itself has an address in this network 192.168.10.1 at this address and the software for controlling and configuring the router and the devices connected to it is available.

We connect to the router, by default the user is admin and the password is admin

After connecting, the router interface will become available, but in English:

We switch to Russian, language support buttons in the upper right corner.

We set the data in strict accordance with those shown in the figure and save the settings by clicking the save button. The modem is configured and ready to distribute the Internet access service, there are small details left:

1. The modem receives a service from a network with an address space of 192.168.0.x, has its own management console available at 192.168.0.1, and we just have to make the final settings in it.

2. Since by default I wanted the Internet to rise automatically when the power button of the router was turned on, we set the settings in accordance with the picture below

and click CONNECT:

The address of the modem control console (not the router, namely the Beeline modem) will be saved in the browser tab, it will be useful for the future)))

That's all, use it !!!

In subsequent articles, instructions will be given on how to upgrade the modem software to work with any cellular operator.

Description of an easy way to flash and unlock the ZTE MF823D modem. The need for this arises for certain reasons. For example, you purchased a Beeline operator's modem, but after some time, disappointed in the quality of the connection, you decided to switch to Megafon. There are two exits here. Or buy a Megafon modem, or remove the Beeline lock. Unlocking is necessary in order for the modem to work with a third-party operator's SIM card. After the unlocking procedure, you can use the services of any major mobile operator.

The most affordable option is how to unlock the ZTE MF823D 4G modem. We connect the MF823D modem to the computer into a USB connector without a SIM card! The browser will open the web interface window required to control the device. In the address bar we see: http //: 192.168.1.1 or http //: 192.168.0.1, or http //: 192.168.8.1.
The next step is to put the modem in port mode. This is how it is done. We copy the command into the address bar of the browser:

http://192.168.0.1/goform/goform_process?goformId=MODE_SWITCH&switchCmd=FACTORY

If necessary, insert the desired number into the command. Suppose if it was http //: 192.168.8.1, then we enter the same in the command. Press Enter, go to this address. If everything is done correctly, the modem will switch to port mode, displaying the result: FACTORY: ok response in the browser window.

It can also be done using the dc-unlocker program.

Or run the SCSI.exe executable file, located in the attached archive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_NrIMeqHIaYMUk5NjZiRExWME0/view?usp=sharing
