Hi.

When I upgraded to 1709 (16299.19) I couldn't get my Huawei E3372 Modem to connect!

Before the upgrade I had no problem and with no drivers it could connect to the internet.

I have done everything that I think of, Unfortunately NO LUCK!

What is the solution?

Thanks In Advance!

2 Solution from Huawei : 

  1. Downgrade version of microsoft to the build 1703. You do a search how to downgrade your windows.
  2. Put a static IP on the network adapter of the stick. See image below.

Update from Microsoft will fix the problem end of November..

    Where is this fix being deployed: Windows Update or a specific link?

    To TimK_21,

    I understand from the supplier of my dongle that Microsoft have accepted that it is a Windows problem due to the last autumn update. According to a post on this thread by Pierre-Alexandre Poulin's on November 20, 2017 Microsoft were supposed to be providing a fix and it was scheduled for Nov 28.

    Not sure what you are referring to "specific link". I understand that Microsoft updates only arrive by one method.

    The fix will be deploy by Microsoft November 28th. Huawei confirm to us.

    I have just updated my computer and the problem not yet fixed. Bit disappointing with Microsoft breaking the system and not able to apply a fix within the timeframe that I understand they gave.

    I am using the workaround posted by Kalski  replied on  October 26, 2017 and it is working but need to apply that workaround on every computer on which the dongle is used.
