Net Setter is a dongle that provides internet connection to your laptop or desktop using a network provider’s SIM card. A particular network provider’s net setter can be only used with their SIM card.

For an example, legally only idea SIM can be used in the idea net setter. But sometimes an unsatisfied user may need to change the service provider like I want my Vodafone SIM to work in an idea net setter. Though it is not possible legally, this article will definitely solve this issue for you in a different way. Well, before we start to explain the process it’s my duty to let you know if you try to unlock the net setter the warranty will become invalid forever as it disobeys the company’s policy.

Okay, so here we go… If you are unsatisfied with the Idea internet plans or the speed doesn’t fulfill your need, I will recommend you to switch to another network and to do so you just need to use these techniques.

How to unlock the idea net setter?

It’s time to learn. We have mentioned two valid and simple process that will do the job for you. Just follow the steps accordingly.

The Universal Master Code Can Do The Task For You:

  • Your first task is to find out the IMEI number of the net setter. Most probably it is written at the back of the dongle.
  • Got the new SIM (non-idea service provider)? Good! Now put it in the Idea net setter and connect with your PC.
  • Now you can see on the screen, a little tab is asking you to write the unlocking code.
  • Actually, I don’t know the code. What you will have to do is simply download the universal master code software. After downloading run this on your pc.
  • Open the universal master code software and enter the IMEI number of your idea net setter in the right place and click the calculate button.
  • Now switch to the data card’s option where it was asking you to enter the unlocking code. Click OK.

And your job is done. Very simple. Isn’t it? Now you can enjoy any non-idea service provider’s internet service without any obstacle.

Well, it is possible that the above process won’t work for you as we have received some complains where they mentioned the ‘unlocking code’ option doesn’t appear. Some of them have even mentioned the master key failed to do the task. Don’t worry. We have another backup process in case the first one disappoints.

Unlock the Idea Net Setter Using the Huawei Patcher

Follow the mentioned process step by step.

  • First of all, simply search and download the Huawei Firmware Patcher.
  • Connect the data card in your PC. Wait for the drive to get installed.
  • Now run the downloaded the HFP. The idea net setter will be automatically detected by the HFP (using the COM port).
  • Hope you can see an unlock button, click on it. The HFP will take care of rest of the task. Just sit back and wait for it the complete the process of unlocking.
  • After the process is done, you will get a notification and you net setter is ready to get used.

Hope this article was helpful for you. Let us know if you are facing any problem while trying any of the above processes.
