Today, I am sharing the Huawei E5172 Updater tool to Unlock the E5172 router. It has been created by the famous modem unlocking team DC-Unlocker. It can be downloaded from the link which is provided at the end of the article. I have already provided the unlocking solution of Huawei E5172As-22 (Batelco Bahrain), E5172s-920 (Spectranet Nigeria), Huawei E5172s-515 (Colombia UNE), H3G E5172s-22 (Sweden), and others. Various people have already unlocked this Huawei router with unlock code as it comes with un-customized firmware.
Note: Only those users proceed with this method whose router is of customized firmware, and the above-mentioned unlocking procedure does not work. If your model is E5172s-22, then skip this method.
