You don't need any code, you will need a device with an Ethernet port  though. http://www.kitz.co.uk/routers/hg612hacking.htm

Please forget all you have ever known about the Huawei HG612 and just follow the following steps --
  • Disconnect the HG612 from everything.
  • Depress, and keep depressed, the reset button.
  • With your other hand, plug-in the power supply.
  • Release the reset button.
  • Connect an Ethernet patch cable to the LAN1 port.
  • Connect the other end of the Ethernet patch cable to a computer.
  • Configure the computer's Ethernet interface with a static IPv4 address. Choose any address from within the range of 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254.
  • Open a web-browser and enter the IPv4 address 192.168.1.1 in the web-browser's address bar. The Broadcom boot-loader firmware update page will be displayed.

sudo dscacheutil -flushcache;
sudo killall - HUB mDNSResponder;say cache flushed.
following your advice i could see a  boot loader trying start in address barOpen a web-browser and enter the IPv4 address 192.168.1.1 in the web-browser's address bar. The Broadcom boot-loader firmware update page will be displayed.
i borrowed a windows   laptop and went through the set up you listed and imeadeatly came up with the update page fantastic
after weeks of this i can assure you me whoever that something which i couldn't get to in browsers CHROME/ SAFARI  even when i tried new user in my desktop. it wasn't like this weeks a go something has restricted this update load page on my system  for sure    as the windows worked straight away .  so  now i have to HG612 as i thought the first ones reset button wasn't working and bought another    /// i may buy a windows based os  just so i can run dsl stats and subvert this problem in the future   already back on my mac i can't access again  ,  even after deleting and creating new location , network. etc

I'm pleased to know that both devices have been proved to be still usable.  :)

The only reason for connecting the Ethernet patch cable to the HG612's LAN1 port is to access the GUI based firmware update page. Once that has been completed, you will need to swap it over to the LAN2 port for routine access to the GUI . . . as the LAN1 port will be used for the Internet service connection when the HG612 is used in its default configuration of bridge mode.

ok got it  .  sorry i have a quandary i changed hg612 LAN ip to avoid clash to 192.168.1.2/  now it seems i cannot get gui up.
i dont know how mode is set , i think pppoe bridge and route on other LANS not bound.
 i have  WWW. at prsent working on LAN2 to router wan .& LAN1 to spare router port without which no net .
if i could hg612 gui  i could see whats mode is in..   i have set pc  NIC  to  192.168.100.2. that should get hg612 up , right
not sure which LAN to use now  for gui tried both confused and frustrated  why
 my router sssd authentication comes up without fail.
192.168.88.1  no problem.
im going to take DSL cable out and try lan 1 lan 2   access on 192.168.1.2.again

The IPv4 address of the HG612 is 192.168.1.1 by default.

If you have changed it to 192.168.1.2 then the GUI should be accessible via that address through the LAN2 port. If you are having a problem, try clearing the browser's cache, close the browser and then re-open it and try the address once again.

Setting the PC's NIC to 192.168.100.2 will not work if the HG612's address has been set as 192.168.1.2 . . . you need to have the PC on the same sub-net as the HG612. So just use 192.168.1.100, as before.

No, you should not set any credentials in the HG612 for a PPP session if you intend to have a separate router manage everything.

The HG612 works best as a plain bridging modem, which just provides both a PTM endpoint and also an endpoint for a VLAN with the tag 101.

The default mode of operation of the HG612 is bridge mode. The HG612 will provide a PTM endpoint and a VLAN endpoint. It converts the xDSL signal to/from Ethernet frames which will be accessible on the LAN1 port.

To set the HG612 into its default mode, just press and hold the reset button for at least 10 seconds.
