Frequently Asked Questions

My Vodafone K5160 says it needs 16 digits — is that V5?

Yes. The K5160 (based on Huawei E3372) may use V5 on newer firmware. Buy from our V5 page if it asks for 16 digits.

Are K-series modems the same as E-series?

Yes. K-series = Vodafone-branded E-series. Same hardware, different label. Our codes work for both.

Is the unlock permanent?
