Please don't ask me "TELL ME HOW YOU DO IT" I'm not known for giving solutions away anymore those days have come and gone the reason for this post is that you suggest that people stop buying mifis flashed to verizon when what might be more appropriate is

"Don't buy mifis from guys who dont really know how to flash them"

There are many of us who flash them correctly and verizon's security checks aren't going to disrupt service on our units.

I have a 2200 that was flashed remotely, using a prepaid ($15) from Walmart as a ...... It has just shut off. You are saying that you can do it "right?"

sorry....it wasnt about rules/guides. it was more of a heads up to those that had them or were planning on buying one

I have two mifis. One ftom ebay and one flashed remotely. I do not have the phones fo either of them. The remotely flashed mifi had been off for a month and is still working. I set up the voicemail on the account and left a few messages hoping vrz will think the phone is active and not shut it off. I did the same on the dead mifi hoping it would be revived but no luck. Anybody have any luck reviving dead mifis? Seems we have to get another phone and send it and the mifi to be reprogrammed correctly on the existing account to save the account balance. No real happy but still is a very good deal.

My working mifi was programmed remotely. It has modem firmware v139.083 . I can connect it to my MBR95 router with the USB cable. I can not do this with the other mifi with modem firmware v169 . V139.083 is seen by my laptop when plugged in with USB but I can not connect as USB modem. Anyone able to use mifi as USB modem?
