I have had about 20 calls from peeps saying there mifi stopped working, this happened last march right after they changed authentication standards and it seems they swept accounts again this march but its much less

I called big red and fixed a couple of them so i could see what the deal was, the accounts have some sort of block on them and to fix them they need to remove the meid and then replace it after that it will ota and be fine, lol except they send new keys so you gotta write them again.

anyway heads up guys

Rich, I am trying to send you a PM but apparently new users do not have that ability. Can you send me a PM or even an email since you are an admin and have access to that info. I would like to get some mifis done if possible. Thanks.

I have been trying to reach Rich on his flashing site, and have tried email, text, and calling the phone numbers listed. I get a message that the phone number has been disconnected, so is this flashing service no longer available? I have a mifi 2200 that I was hoping to flash.
