Unleash your 3 MiFi with a firmware flash
I have been using a 3 MiFi which I find to be an excellent product and one that is a brilliant backup for home broadband should yours fail as well as being a great tool while your out and about, one of it’s major faults was that the WiFi would shut off after a short period of inactivity and you have to physically hold the WiFi button in to get it to fire up again, well there is some good news.
I have found a firmware update for the MiFi, it’s not an official 3 firmware but it works a treat and opens up some hidden settings one of which is the WiFi sleep option.
On top of that you can also now access the settings over WiFi via IP address 192.168.1.1 which for some reason 3 decided to block.
You an download the update here but make sure to follow the instructions here to avoid any unforeseen update problems.
