hello Asif
did you solve your problem?
i have the same problem
You have upload wrong Firmware
I also experienced this issue like asif. So, if that is the wrong firmware, what we will do? What is the right firmware? Actually, i already unlock my router e5172-927 to 920 and it was successful. I looked for latest firmware because form the time i unlocked the router, the signal bar dropped to 1bar and very slow internet. That’s why i updated for firmware what i searched (saying universal) and then this is what happened like what asif experienced.
I have E5172AS-22 but bricked while upgrading/downgrading a customized firmware from a website thinking to unlock it. Now all light lid up permanently and I can get into using 192.168.1.1 (its not deductable :() If you kindly able to help.
can i unlock my E5172s-927(STC) with dc unlocker client 1.00.0828? maybe this is the older version of huawei modem unlocker..
DC unlocker also does not support this modem, you can ask from his team.
what if i don’t have any pc, is there another way to unlock my e51727s-927?
No way.
thanks! i thought i can do it with my smartphone by logging-in in 192.168.1.1 and using other service provider.
You, can not do, since it does not ask for unlock code, as users reported. Check from your end.

Hi,
How much do I need to pay to unlock airtel e5172 router.
I hope no different prices for firmware and code, right?
If device is asking for SIMlock code after changing the SIM and attempt are left then only pay, no refund will be provided.
I think I need to pay for the firmware as well right? and if needed code will be provided on the same payment details.
I am not responsible for any firmware, which are posted, use at your own risk.
If I pay will you send me the instruction along with the firmware link and code?
I have already said, I am only responsible for correct code of E5172 router, I don’t know more about this.
hi, i have already got the unlock code and my router E5172s-920. i just made reset and maybe new password is required. how to get this new password?
