QUOTE(magresus @ May 25 2018, 02:24 PM) When did you get your Huawei B618 router? I am guessing the older batches are not Simlock. I applied for mine on 19th May. If you do apply best have it check before you leave the Blue Cube center. Put in a different telco sim card in and if the Mode light on the router is a solid red then it probably is locked. Best put in the Celcom sim card in 1st to test the router is working as intended (all aqua blue colour lights lit up) and then put in a different telco sim card. Another way to test is to go to 192.168.8.1 of the router and the 1st thing you will see is router is locked if a different simcard is in. Hope Celcom don't decide to update the firmware of the router to be simlock after couple months in. Blue Cube didn't have the code to unlock it and it stays lock to Celcom according to the Blue Cube I went to. I applied it on May 6. You can update the firmware yourself as it is available on the internet. By the way the firmware can't be auto update right? And even if Celcom decided to update the firmware to simlock it we still have the say to update it or not right? This post has been edited by Charlize1103: May 26 2018, 02:21 AM |

It will overwrite the lock simcard option in the router and restore back to default unlock variant. This post has been edited by Jeffreynsx: May 26 2018, 07:20 AM |

It will overwrite the lock simcard option in the router and restore back to default unlock variant. It works? I tried this with phones and it doesnt work tho. If it works, it's a miracle. But what I understand is that, when you turn on any telecommunication device, it will send a signal to like a server with a database full of IMEIs. Then it will check for ur device's IMEI inside. If found inside like a "locked" section of the database, then will return "LOCKED" or watever they want the server to return. Otherwise, it will let it run. That is what I read from last time somewhere on how IMEI blocking works. Can't find it right now. |

Apart from reset the Huawei B618 router, can refer to the video below to unlock the device. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RvsaDHXir4 |
