=Changing the ZTE MF823 to 'modem' mode=  |

Warning: This is still in progress and does not work  |

The ZTE823 works as an Ethernet device by default, it is possible to change the mode so that it works as a modem. The idea here is that rather than the dongle NATing the connection it can be a modem and the FireBrick will be given the public WAN IP address directly.  |
