The Huawei E3372 disconnects frequently from the LTE network. This is caused by the Auto Disconnect Interval, which has a maximum 120 minutes. This little hack sets the Interval to 24 hours, for the explanation see: hacking-huawei-e3372-hilink.
You can create your own commands following the Huawei Web API.
For example Hilink.exe -a /config/global/languagelist.xml shows the available languages.
