Has anyone "flashed" the Huawei mt800 modem?

[vishalrao]

Has anyone 'flashed' the Huawei MT 800 modem to a new firmware version? Any need to do that? Or any reason to avoid it?I would like to upgrade the firmware but I'm worried they might disable some features or something!edit: I saw a firmware update on the Huawei website a few weeks ago, hence the question...

Hey Vishal, do we have a new firmware available for download ???Gaurav.

 

[vishalrao]

Yep Gaurav I saw it on the Huawei website somewhere a few weeks ago... (same place I downloaded the modem manual PDF)..Sushubh, what did you edit out of the post above? Was it the "quote"? hehePeople just love to quote, eh? Maybe you can disable the quote when they click "reply" button... I use "fast reply" anyways..

 

[Sushubh]

well ignore my little insanities... but i hate quotes for the just above posts.

The new firmaware upgrade is for MT880 modem(ADSL2+) and not for MT800.If you are using MT880 modem download the new firmware, it helps only in diagnostics as per the website.

Hello, my problem is that the setup page doesn´t show the "Firmware Upgrade" option (Should be at "tools" according to modem's manual)
Here´s the screenshot:
I already have a firmware, downloaded from Huawei site, but the modem is operator branded (GVT), I think this is the cause.
So I need the direct url to the Firmware Upgrade page so I can try....
Thank you!
