Steps to Unlock Your Vodafone Huawei USB Modem

1. Insert an Unaccepted SIM Card
   Start by inserting a SIM card from a network provider other than the one your modem is locked to.
2. Connect the Modem to Your Computer
   Plug the USB modem into your computer’s USB port.
3. Install the Required Software or Drivers

• Software Method: When you connect the modem, it may prompt you to install the accompanying management software. If not, you may need to download it from Huawei’s or Vodafone’s official website. This software is crucial for managing your modem’s settings, including unlocking.
• Driver Installation: In some cases, you may only need to install drivers, and the modem will function through a web interface instead of dedicated software.

1. Access the Unlock Interface

• Using Modem Software: After installing the software, open it. You should see a prompt or a specific section where you can enter the network unlock code. This is the most common method for modems that don’t automatically open a web browser.
• Using a Web Browser: If your modem doesn’t prompt for software installation or if you prefer using a web browser, open your browser and enter 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.9.1 in the address bar. This should take you to the modem’s web interface where you can enter the unlock code.

1. Enter the Network Unlock Code
   Whether through the software or web interface, input the unlock code provided by Tech Unlock Hub. This code will remove the network lock, allowing you to use the modem with any compatible SIM card.
2. Set Up a New Profile/APN
   After unlocking, create a new profile or Access Point Name (APN) within the modem’s software or web interface. Use the settings provided by your new network provider to ensure proper connectivity.
