How to unlock your ZTE MF283+
- Disassemble the router and remove the modem module from it (see picture 1)
- Insert it into the miniPCI-e slot of a disassembled PC & turn on the PC (see picture 2). If you have problems detecting then try disconnecting then power on the PC before connecting the module into the miniPCI-e slot or try using a different PC
- Five ZTE Technologies MSM devices will appear in the device manager, you do not need to install them on each driver.
- We only need a diagnostic port. It can be determined from the device’s information by the “equipment ID” (see picture 3)
- Install the driver ZTE_LTE_Drivers auto or ZTEDrvSetup manually. I selected drivers from ZTE Mobile Broadband Diagnostics Port

Code:qcommand -pX -e -c "c 27 40 1f 46 30 41 41"
replace X with the diagnostic port number you saw earlier in the device manager
