ReplyDeleteSo we must have Nokia PC-Suite installed in our system to use a modem with any network's SIM card without unlocking. But the PC-Suite download which you have given is blocked by my Anti Virus. So I decided it is better to unlock my Huawei modem.
ReplyDeleteI unlocked my Huawei modem using unlock code. I got the unlock code from Unlock-Zone.com at affordable cost and got the free unlocking instructions from MobileUnlockGuide.com It was simple.
