well i dont use MDMA as i plug my ZTE MF680 into TP LINK 3G router,.. so any modem is fine as long as support by router

i opt for ZTE MF680 anytime thna E372,. at least is cheaper and yet faster speed in max out your connection

that one we upgrade is dashboard alone, firmware is not update at all , i have check well but at least signal in TL-MR3420 is much higher now and stable too

just finally figure out how to flash U mobile latest firmware & dashboard to my ZTE MF680 3 SET

and it improve a lot more than the firmware just now i flash with ( DL_MF680_H3G_SE_EUV1.00.05.exe )

after flash with u mobile firmware and dashboard

MDMA signal is totall FULL in RSSI : >-51dBm on both UMTS900 or UMTS2100 tower


diret plug in pc usb, only with HSPA+ signal on blue LED blinking

[attachmentid=3061693]

DIrect plug in speed super stable between 1~ 1.2MB/s on HSPA+ with new U mobile dashboard

[attachmentid=3061694]


with router, signal improve from normal 70 to now 87% stable and IDM speed around 1.7~1.95MB/s this house on purple LED

u cannot directly try to flash normal way,

it will say your dongle is not allow to update due to compatibility issue

let me do some screenshot to show you how to flash it over to U mobile firmware and dashboard

let me do video screenshot and upload it here

First of all

download these 2 file (DL_MF680_H3G_SE_EUV1.00.05.exe & DL_MF680_UMOB_MY_EUV1.00.02.exe )


- now take out your sim card from zte mf680
- plug it into your computer USB & wait for your computer to recognize it
- close any dashboard/modem software which pop up if any
- run this DL_MF680_UMOB_MY_EUV1.00.02.exe
- when the update button appear, dont click first leave it
- now go to my computer -> Drive C -> Programs file -> WIndow Service -> MF662 folder -> Copy everything out and place them in the temporary places ( * u going to need them later on )
- after copy everything in that MF662 folder under that folder, close the DL_MF680_UMOB_MY_EUV1.00.02.exe which is on
- now run this file DL_MF680_H3G_SE_EUV1.00.05.exe
- when the update button apppear, dont click update yet, leave it there
- now go to my computer -> Drive C -> Programs file -> WIndow Service -> MF662 folder -> delete everything inside
- go to the temporary place u copy * file just now, copy all them again
- go to my computer -> Drive C -> Programs file -> WIndow Service -> MF662 folder -> Paste * file u copy here
- now click the update button on DL_MF680_UMOB_MY_EUV1.00.02.exe
- wait for the whole update process to finish, ( take about 6~7 MIN )
- once update finish, remove your ZTE MF680 modem
- uninstall your old dashboard modem software first
- plug in your zte mf680 with your sim card
- install new u mobile dashboard

enjoy..

i think cannot due to different chipset,..

need to look for ZTE MF680, ZTE MF681 or ZTE MF683 this three model firmware is compatible,.

i suspect the UM and that websites both giving us a MF662 model firmware,..

that's why become strong HSPA+ instead if DC-HSPA+

let me find the MF680 firmware . will update here when i found it along with step to reflash it

try to find

zte mf680, zte mf681 or zte mf683 all should be working

i try already just now,..


but the dashboard after finish flash not support i guess dashboard is lock,

i use MDMA, only able show HSUPA and blue LED is ON,.

connection is much more poorer then any firmware before

best flash it back to Umobile firmware and wait for better one appear

i tried but end up like this, LOL

[attachmentid=3063005]

so far i have to say u mobile firmware get best in signal and in consistency,..

nope, just now green LED, i guess different firmware control color of LED

i dont think u can extract it,..

need to find a complete update flash file
