If the modem doesn't have the P option then its on the new bootloader and you'll need console unlocker, softjtag & max232 cable.

thanx baked188 knew about the bootloader but didnt know that there was a solution (console un-locker) all the modems i have must be using the new bootloader they dont appear to have any options in hyperterminal they end with the message "disable console output" and im unable to do anything to them.

When you've got the cdisable console output open the console unlocker and click exploit. then re-write the bootloader using softjtag, think both these files r avail in downloads. if not giz a shout ill send them u.
