    Posted Mar 24, 2014 07:53 AM

    Hi Guys,

     

    I'm trying to get an IAP3 working with a E160 dongle in the UK on O2 but seem to be having a problem with it.

    Is there a specified firmware version that I need to use on the dongle.

    I have tried entering the info from the below but when i plug in the dongle the aruba just keeps rebooting.

    The Aruba is using FW 6.2.1

     

    Thanks

    Si

    Hi, 

    Please try to connect your modem to PC or (best option) to Linux. Then check USB Device ID. Sometimes modem vendors change ID parameters. I had the same with E173. 

    Regards,

    Hi marqs,

     

    you have your e173 settings by hand , have also some o2 branded one now with huawei firmware , still in hybrid mode. im digging into another 3G modem parameters document too , see attached - this is suitable to the other one you posted.
