TalkTalk Huawei HG521 Use with Other ISP
« on: September 17, 2015, 07:07:42 PM »

Hello Again!


This one only accepts certain domain(s) for username for the dsl connection configuration. However, if one saves the configuration (for other ISP) while using the acceptable domain like @talktalk and then uploads the modified configuration with @talktalk removed/edited out, the router accepts it and will likely connect without any problem(s). This method might also work for ones from AOL, ttnet (Turkish), etc.

One may also upload the firmware from Forthnet http://www.forthnet.gr/ for HG521 http://www.forthnet.gr/Article.aspx?a_id=3954 but editing the config file works well!

I'll post about it here http://ahmedfarazch.blogspot.com/2015/09/talktalkaol-huawei-echolife-hg521-info.html


Regards,
Ahmed

P.S. Editing the configuration file works for TalkTalk Huawei EchoLife HG532 as well  ;D
