Title: ECI modem unlocking
Post by: kitz on April 11, 2016, 03:02:11 PM
I'm putting this up as a sticky, because I've seen this question asked and the subject discussed a few times over the past week or so and that is Can someone help me unlock my ECI modem?

Upgrade your BT Openreach FTTC VDSL2 Modem ECI B-FOCuS V-2FUb/R Rev.B OpenWrt

If you post your modem, the seller will unlock your ECI modem and install jsamuel (http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=8531)'s version of OpenWRT firmware.

£14.99 seems a fair price considering that includes return postage.

Note:  Im not affiliated with the person nor can I make a personal recommendation, but it is a service some people are wanting, so putting a link up makes it easy to find in future.

Jsamuel is the seller btw. He did one for me a while ago. Worked just fine. I have just done another one  myself following the instructions on the forum discussion. Flashed just fine and appears to be ready to go. Somewhat surprised myself that I managed it  ;D

I have just sent mine off.

I currently use a HG612 connected to a ECI DSLAM.

I will post comparative stats (for the HG612 pre and post G.Inp) and for the ECI post G.Inp.

Not had chance to do the trial but in any event I have now been un-G.Inped.

Its been mentioned in a couple of threads that a few people on this forum used this service and were happy with it.
