Firmware
Due to the fact that the products of the Megafon operator are considered the best offered on the market, lovers of someone else's property ask the question: how to flash a Megafon modem. Despite the illegality of these actions, the network offers a lot of options for these actions. With the help of a special program, a code is obtained, which, when entered into a special window, unlocks the system. Such programs can harm your computer and affect the operation of all devices.
I live in a rented apartment wired Internet no, in this regard, I decided to purchase a USB modem from Megafon with 4G support (in the future I want to purchase wifi router and use it with him). I chose Megafon for several reasons - MTS catches badly in my area, Beeline's tariff plans did not suit me, Megafon turned out to be the best choice in my case. I decided on the operator, it only remained to choose a modem. There were two modems with 4G support on the megaphone website - M 100 and 4G + (LTE) modem M150-2, reviews of both were good. Since the site does not indicate that the 4G + (LTE) modem M150-2 supports Windows 8 (and this axis is installed on my laptop), I called Megafon support, they told me that this modem does not support Windows 8. I had to opt for the M100 . Armed with information, I went to the nearest megaphone point to buy an M 100 modem. But this model was not there and I decided at my own peril and risk to purchase a 4G + (LTE) modem M150-2
(I didn’t wait until the M 100 appeared, since the prices on the site had risen and were already about 2,500 rubles.) The seller honestly warned me that it might not work with Windows 8, but reassured me by saying that it works fine with a friend on the eight. Having paid 1200 rubles, I became the owner of a 4G + (LTE) modem M150-2 from Megafon and 14 days unlimited internet in the amount of about 80 GB.
A little about the characteristics of this device: the declared data reception speed is 150 Mbps, transmission up to 50 Mbps, the modem supports microSD cards up to 32 GB (Micro Secure Digital / Micro Secure Digital HC / Micro Secure Digital XC), the modem supports 2G standards 3G and 4G (LTE 2600 / LTE 800), SIM card is standard.
Opening the user manual, section system requirements I was pleasantly pleased with the PC - it turned out that the modem still supports Windows 8.
When installing, I recommend disabling my antivirus did not allow me to install the modem, after disabling it, the modem software was installed normally.
It works well on the eight, it doesn’t fall off, I didn’t test the speed, since we don’t have 4G yet, I watch movies online, they load quickly. I have been using the modem for a month now, there are no complaints about its work.
As a result, I spent 800 rubles, it seems that there is 4G which is awkward, plus pay for the Internet in 2 weeks
Advantages:
Flaws:
A new program that is executed on a half-screen, and not like a miniature megaphone in pre-modems
- the device turns off 3 times more often than previous models
-forcibly works in the NDNIS connection type, in pre-modems you can optionally set it to anyone as you like (there was a choice of RAS)
-From the moment of purchase, in 2 weeks you will have to connect the Internet, and accordingly pay (previously, when buying, the Internet was given for at least a month or even two, depending on the tariff)
After installing the program, you will connect a hundred times, it will work for 2 minutes and turn off, and after 3 hours it will work more stable.
-Often there is a network search, it seems to be not critical, but now I can’t play tanks normally, because the modem turns off and the network is searched, you go into the game and there is a defeat!
Period of use:
a few months

- January 15, 2016The bottom line is that this is Huawei E3372h with STICK firmware and lock. Easily unlocked, see w3bsit3-dns.com and HILINK firmware is flashed. After that, we insert it into the router with OpenWRT and everything works like a clock. The laptop also works stably. After the firmware in HILINK, it essentially turns into a router. Telnet, adb to boot.
Advantages:
Smart and very reliable modem.
Flaws:
MegaFon and its STICK firmware.
Period of use:
over a year
19 0Gromov Sergey
- February 22, 2016Immediately after installation, the modem was unstable. I had to plug it in and out several times so that it could at least connect to a 2G network. Then in the program settings I had to transfer to 4G. Then the program seemed to "run in", the connection to the Internet happened simply when the computer was turned on, except that the program sometimes switched to 3 or 2G at will. But a little later, all glitches and brakes returned, only, apparently, having gained strength somewhere, because simply reconnecting the modem was no longer enough, I had to restart the computer 4 times. Updating the program, as well as reinstalling, did not give anything. I propose a treatment: the HUAWEI modem program is downloaded from the site huawei.mobzon.ru and installed instead of the Megafon one. ALL! Connection takes a few seconds, the Internet "flies".
Advantages:
Good sensitivity, the ability to connect an external antenna, a slot for a memory card.
Flaws:
Control program.
Period of use:
a few months

- January 21, 2016I bought a modem for myself in the hospital. I thought it was a normal modem. At first he made me happy, sometimes he even went into online games. But after some time, this modem turned into an infernal machine that can control your mood, and most often this mood was not only negative, it was simply murderous. Suicides feel more adequate than the owners of this modem. There is no speed, the Internet is constantly interrupted, because of this I could not even watch the movie in 360 quality, it even got to the point that I could not listen to music on VKontakte. People, if you want to save your nerves, then it's better not to consider this option as a purchase.
Advantages:
Pros: None
Flaws:
Of the minuses: there are a lot of them. The Internet either catches or does not catch. Most of all it doesn’t catch, but if it catches, then there is no promised speed
Period of use:
less than a month

- March 26, 2016The bottom line is that the megaphone firmware is unstable. The network is lost, the connection breaks, often it does not find the modem at all. Psychanul put a highlink. Now no prog is needed at all, the drivers are installed themselves, you can plug it into any computer. The connection is holding as it should. All the functionality of the poor megaphone program is now a web-muzzle. And, well, the bonus is the removal of the sim-lock.
Advantages:
The iron itself is good
Flaws:
The megaphone turned her into a misunderstanding
Period of use:
a few months

- 11 May 2016I do not recommend to anyone!
Advantages:
Flaws:
I have never seen such a "miracle" ... my patience lasted for two weeks! "Thank you" megaphone! It has never been so that it starts up and works the first time! That it sets software when you turn it on, the computer does not see it, the settings are reset each time and they need to be set manually, then it constantly looks for the network and does not find it, although there are smart and tablet with a megaphone nearby and the network is excellent there .... five times you pull it out of slots, restart your computer a couple of times and lo and behold !!! IT starts to work. In short, I'm tired of these dances with a tambourine, I'm leaving again for a beeline, where the tariff is more profitable, they don't divide it into day and night.
Period of use:
less than a month

- July 31, 2015Today I bought it for a girl who is in the hospital. An hour struggled with the fact that I constantly displayed a network search. As a result, I figured out that the modem is connected to LTE (I did not test the speed, but the LED glows blue). This is not shown in the program. Plus, for the Internet to work, you need to go into the TCP / IP 4 settings every time you connect and set the settings to automatic.
Advantages:
The internet is still there...
Flaws:
This modem is one big flaw
Period of use:
less than a month

- January 21, 2017I do not advise anyone to buy this modem until you make sure that where it will be used, a really stable connection and speed indicators at least remotely resemble the promised 100-150 Mbps.
If possible, ask your friends for the same modem and check how it will work for you, because you won’t be able to take the modem for a test drive in a store and return it back. Sellers will fight to the death.
Before buying, I warned the consultant that I was taking the modem only because there was a megaphone tower installed where it would work. Without it, it is impossible to catch a stable signal at this address, because. this is a 2 floor. house and it is surrounded on all sides by panel skyscrapers.
The consultant looked at the map on the Megafon website and assured me that the indicated address was in the 4G + stable reception area.
For several days we unsuccessfully tried to pick up the signal. When we succeeded, the first thing we did was check the speed of the Internet connection. Instead of the declared 100-150 Mbps, there were 23 inputs. and 17 ref.
The question is, why was it necessary to buy a device for 2500 rubles, if the same, but 3G and 2G for 300-500 rubles. produces the same speed?
But this was not the last disappointment.
The signal was constantly lost. After working for 3 minutes, the modem went out, and I had to remove it and install it several times to make it work again.
A call to technical support helped to find out what was wrong, and gave hope that this uselessness can be returned to the store as unfulfilled expectations.
It turned out that the equipment from the nearest tower was removed several months ago.
After taking a screenshot of the test results and inspired by the news about the removed equipment, I went to the store to hand over the modem. But it was not there.
They told me that the modem is working, and the speed corresponds to the declared parameters, because it is within 150 Mbps.
Basically, I left with nothing. The gift didn't work. The money is gone. The mood is ruined.
Thank you Megaphone!
Advantages:
Not detected
Flaws:
Low speed Internet connections, constantly dropping signal, overpriced
Period of use:
less than a month

- April 4, 2017Therefore, you will not get access to your home (personal) ftp server. Technical support at the "reboot your computer" level. Boys and girls clearly will not be able to give you advice. Despite the fact that you pay 2500 rubles instead of 990 a year ago. At the same time, he has not changed, either externally or internally. In general, 1 star only for the fact that "We provide access to the Internet", but we do not fully agree that not everything is within your power with our hellish tariffs.
Advantages:
More or less nimble
Flaws:
Ports closed
Period of use:
over a year
