EP06-A firmware

[rramse]

Does anyone have the newer modem firmware (at least revision EP06ELAR03A08M4G/EP06ELAR04A01M4G) that supports the AT+QUSBCFG="SS" command, to turn off USB3, for the EP06-A modem? I have EP06ALAR02A07M4G currently.

It would be so nice if you could upload this to me since Quectel Support are such jerks to North American customers. I appreciate your help or feedback, thank you!

Hello,
I don't have it. This is the person that sent me firmware for the EM12. wade.zhang@quectel.com
Maybe could try him.

As far as I know, EP06ALAR02A07M4G is the latest version for the EP06-"A", though you could ask via the email provided by Gscheb, just don't ask for the EP06-"E" version unless that's the model you have.
You cannot flash the firmware from an EP06-"E" (EP06ELAR04A01M4G) which is the European/international version. The two variants have different firmware versions and just because the "A" firmware seems to be lower, it doesn't mean that it's older. Even if you could somehow force flash the EP06-"E" firmware onto an EP06-"A", it would most certainly disable the US bands, so it's useless.
Here's the correct format for the "SS" command:

Code: Select all

USB2 mode
AT+QUSBCFG="SS",0

USB3 mode
AT+QUSBCFG="SS",1

If the above commands don't work, you can try the "tape the pins" method as shown here:

Can the fitmware be flashed in the router? (GL-X750) Trying to connect to Visible with EP06ALAR02A04M4G and think I need EP06ALAR02A07M4G

I’d really like to know this too, I have the same router and modem combo

How do you check the firmware version of the modem through openwrt. I just received mine less then a month ago and was told its up to date, If this is so and I can confirm I am running the version you guys need I can reach out to the guy that sold it to me and hopefully get you what you need.

Also if your just major risk takers a google search on the specific firmware version found this:

Mine does connect to visable no problems BTW but its in a wg3526 router

Hmm, that says "developer: BillA", sounds suspiciously like a very notorious black hat hacker!

[DonJuane]

Did anyone ever discover a source? THANKS!

[Adm1jtg]

looks like the command to check firmware version is
ati
will respond with something like this

Quectel
EP06
Revision: EP06ALAR02A08M4G

thats from my modem that works fine on visable and is over a year old

mine is an EP06-A

[Didneywhorl]

If you want the full firmware version for a Quectel the command is

Code: Select all

AT+QGMR

[Adm1jtg]

Looks almost the same

ati
Quectel
EP06
Revision: EP06ALAR02A08M4G

AT+QGMR
EP06ALAR02A08M4G

was just curious so ran both

[Didneywhorl]

Ahh, ok. Looks like the EP06 doesnt have revisions in the fw version names. Cool.



That is the newest version I have seen.
