Huawei E1762's latest firmware updates
As many of you are aware Huawei E1762 is one of the bundled modems for Maxis broadband registration, hence it shouldn't come to a surprise by seeing most of us (or people out there) using this modem. It is capable to run on 7.2Mbps download speed and 5.76Mbps upload speed.

Credits to cruxidex for his kindness to help out few poor souls out there who were having bad speed using the E1762.

The latest firmware: 11.126.10.00.00
Easy peasy steps:
1) Download the firmware from here and only install the Update_11.126.10.00.00.B418.

2) After get the modem flashed to the latest firmware, it is time to upgrade your dashboard to a later version. Download from here. Install UTPS16.002.10.04.99_MAC16.001.30.00.99.

3) Done!

You will need to take note on these few important points before flashing your modem and dashboard. Spend 1 minute reading them, strongly advised by fruitie.
1) Do not fix the firmware, unless it is broken (slow).
2) OK, now you have decided to flash it; make sure you jot down your current firmware before you start doing anything. Can be obtained from your dashboard: Tools>Diagnostics
3) For those using this modem with TP-Link MR3420, basically not much issues can be found. MR3420 is a very flexible router unlike Aztech HW550-3G.
4) However, if you are using Aztech HW550-3G, before doing the above steps; please update your router to the latest firmware from here.
5) Proceed with the modem+dashboard flashes. In order for it to use on your Aztech HW550-3G router, select RAS (modem) on your dashboard before plugging it into your router. By default, it comes with NDIS.
6) You should be able to use it on your Aztech router with no issues now.

If you feel that your previous firmware does better job than the new one, you may still possible to download the old firmware from DC Files.

With the advancement of technology, fruitie personally recommends all the Maxis 3G Internet Unlimited users to have a 3G router. You can easily share this high speed connection with your family members or simply for your iPad or mobile phones.

3G routers are proven to have better connectivity and stability compared to direct plug-in USB modems. Of course, one can easily buy a MiFi device and connection can be shared via WiFi with simple steps. However, if you are not a mobile person, 3G routers are always a better choice than a MiFi. You can choose to connect using LAN (more stable than WiFi) or WiFi. If you have a ready USB modem then you can plug it to your router without wasting its existence, this is something MiFi can't have.

Two choices of our all-time favourite 3G routers:

1) TP Link - TL MR 3420
http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-MR3420
-More flexible than Aztech HW550-3G as it accepts many types of USB modems
Discussion thread: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2068482

2) Aztech - HW550-3G (I'm using this and quite satisfied with it)

However, computing technology makes life easier. Windows 7 is capable enough to turn your modem into a "virtual router" and you can share out the 3G connection with just some simple tweaks.

Read this tutorial for better understanding. You couldn't agree more that the illustrations actually help a lot! At least to me.

me e1762 just spoilt

me e1762 just spoilt

water?? or wrong flash?

hardware problem i guess,flash back original dashboard,maxis dashboard,both cant use..
the problems r:
1)for skmm packages it can only detect GSM but not WCDMA
2)hard to connect even for maxis..i dunno how to explain but sometimes it can connect but sometimes cant

i have a huawei e1550 that has been put aside after having streamyx in my house

Anyone know how to unlock the GSM call and video call using Maxis Huawei E1762 on window using mobile partner?

i am using a UMG1831 , 21.6Mbps modem, since April 2011.

my latest and fastest speedtest:



my first try at my new university faculty of IT.

your speed is really nice 

using mobile partner with voice support ?

I would refrain from getting UMG1831 to be honest.
Try to get E352, E372 if you can find/afford those 2 instead.

The UMG1831 I won't recommend because the stable firmware is the original version that came with the dongle.
T mobile released newer firmwares that were not as stable.

As are some people have flashed some other modem's firmware in it to boost speed to 28.8mbps, which is almost irreversible to the original without problems.

So to save the hassle, I won't recommend the UMG1831. I had it for a while and it gave me more headaches than anything.

Alternatively, you can get the E182e which has the same specifications as the UMG1831.

Added on February 3, 2012, 8:31 amIf you want a cheap & good modem you can look for the following:

E173u-2 -> this is UMTS900/2100 I have tested, note the suffix
E1762 -> But this seems to be not available new from maxis anymore, forums and lelong has a lot

These are typically around MYR130-150 new, or RM80-100 used/demo

But the thing with huawei modems in msia is that the budget and the high end price gap is extremely high.

The E352 is supposed to be mid-high range, but it is elusive at the moment.

The E372 is obtainable but at a price point of RM450 with 1 year warranty
And E182 is RM300 with 1 year warranty.

So the gap is quite big, as the E352 and the E182 are same class modems, but you really get what you pay for to be honest.

**Note, I do not sell modems, the prices were quoted to be by a forum seller and I've posted here for the convenience of everyone shopping for a modem.

this speedtest using a Maxis Multisim on UMG1831?

sure or not cause the PING will not be this low, i too using a UMG1831 

UMG1831. I really shocked with the result.
That was my first speedtest at my new university builiding for IT faculty.
but after that i never go there, because its not my faculty, and quite up to the hill.

i dun think the speed was achieve with a usb modem, esp UMG1831  cause usb modem wont return a ping of 5ms,

if you wan ppl to believe you , you have to put up some screen shots together with the dialer, i believe that speedtest was achieve with a Maxis Fibre to Home connection, no hard feelings okay, as i wan users here to knoe the real info

btw, abt UMG1831, i have one and i recommend users who wan this low cost modem (RM199,  because its outdated compared to E353) to buy it from a recommended seller like _____( u can PM me if u wan to buy). I bought one from him, that modem is a "virgin" set , meaning when i took delivery of it, it was still wrapped in its plastic wrapper inside the box. Before this, i bought one UMG1831 from another seller , damn it,  the connection just get disconnected cause the seller flashed the modem into a FW which is not its ori FW and hence it sucks big time. Then i tested 3 of his UMG and all 3 too sucks.

and MYstombox UMG1831 was a tempered UMG1831, hence it sucks too.

infact a seller in LYN also sell this UMG at a very cheap price but he state very clearly this modem only have a one month warranty, 

if you guys check back my postings in the Maxis thread, i have posted very good speedtest result that i have screenshot together with the dailer on the UMG

agreed.. the download is possible but the upload speed and ping just to good to be true.

1st I use Celcom..

This couldn't be true..impossible...

It's just a sudden burst, so nothing to be surprised about.

We do get that once a while.

yup, cause sometimes using different modems / different telcos also can get result beyond the limit once for a while.

Speedtest at Bandar Pekan, Pahang, using U Mobile (Daily Package), UMG1831.

If suddenly speed burst like that, then at that time when downloading..then the download will be suddenly complete..haha 

even at the early stage of testing U Mobile using UMG1831 at Pekan, my IDM indicated 2.++Mbps for a single download. now it's hard to get like that. but i'm still waiting for Maxis to upgrade their services here.

hi, i want to ask if using maxis huawei e1762, how to change "maxis dashboard" to "mobile partner" dashboard?

can someone give a review on huawei e1762 and zte MF190 modem? which modem gives lower ping guys?

MF190 cause its ONLY UMTS2100 supported

yeah, seems impossible to me also, that's why i'm shocked. but that is a true story.

maybe one chance in million can get that result.

i'll try to test at same spot next time, but not sure when, on holiday now at pekan.

I bought my ZTE MF622 from digilife too. Time flies and I'm still keeping the modem as backup, let it rest while my Huawei E1762 takes over the heavy role. I just need a HSPA modem these days.

Previously had an Option iCON 505 as well but sold it off as it doesn't differ much compared to my Huawei E1762 except for a slight better ping. That doesn't matter to me a lot actually.

ZTE MF622 emits heat better than E1762, anytime. It is still a good modem but just that I need a modem that has higher upload speed. Fortunately, managed to pick up a nice used unit of E1762 at a bargained price. Looks good for now.

Now umobile offer MF190 rite? It is a latest ZTE 7.2 modem?

is icon505m supports HSPA+?

Just a HSPA modem.

ohh ok. how bout zte MF190 modem?

Can, make sure to buy TP Link MR3420, else be prepared for sleepless nights. I had once in last year's November. Takut already.

U re-flash the previous version firmware?

Nope I was using the latest version until Chuah posted this. Managed to find out the culprit that caused the incompatibility.

It is NDIS and RAS setting?
