Huawei E3372 dongle: HiLink.app

It is up to Huawei to update their Hi Link app to 64bit, bet they won't though.

I use a Huawei USB Mobile Broadband dongle, and it will not open the Hi Link page

this is because the app is 32bit. But I have managed to get it to connect to the internet.

If you can plug your dongle into another Mac that is running Mojave or older

then check the System Preferences> Network settings.

Make a note of the settings, click on the Advanced button and take a not of all the settings in the

various tabs. You can take screenshots and then transfer them over to your Catalina Mac.

Back to the Catalina Mac, insert the dongle and start your Mac up.

Open System Preferences> Network.

Click on Huawei Mobile on the left hand column.

Now change DHCP to DHCP with manual address, enter your

IP Address. click Advanced

TCP/IP Configure IPv4 Using DHCP with manual address

IPv4 Address input your IP address

enter details for the subnet Mask

and then details for the Router.

next go to DNS

add your DNS addresses by clicking on the plus button.

Next go to Hardware and see if the MAC address has filed up

configure should be Automatically

Speed, Duplex and MTU might be greyed out, but you should see

the entries, 10baseT/UTP, full-duplex, Standard(1500)

press OK, and then Apply. Hopefully your Huawei dongle in the left column will now show green for connected.

It may take a couple of minutes.

Here is installable app:

Thank you very much for posting that link to a 64bit version of the HiLink app.

Searched high and low and could not find.

Huawei support site is a mess, I do wonder about web designers

if they actually use their products.

I have this problem too, I called Huawei and wrote message in support, but it doesn't got result.

Also, got this problem, tried to update hilink but haven't found it at Huawei support

it doesn't work, because dongle in the left column show grey.

Awesome! It is working, thanks so much

Hi there, thanks for link I've also been looking everywhere lots of advice that didn't work!!

This link is good in Mojave, I'[[ try Catalina later on.

Thanks again.
