Hi Quectel team,
I’m using two Quectel 5G modules in my project and need assistance with firmware updates and QFirehose flashing under Linux/OpenWrt environment:
-
Devices:
• Module 1: RM500U-CNV
Firmware version: RM500UCNVAAR03A02M2G_01.001.01.001
USB only working in RNDIS mode, MBIM/QMI not available (/dev/cdc-wdm0 not present)
• Module 2: RM530N-GL
Want to install latest available firmware
Also requesting latest MBN configurations (e.g. for Orange PL) -
Environment:
• Host devices: Banana Pi R3 Mini (running OpenWrt 24.10)
• No access to Windows — I need to flash and update modems using Linux-based tools
• I’ve seen references to QFirehose tool for Linux — could you please share the Linux version of this tool and the latest firmware files (or provide access/download links)? -
Goal:
• Enable full MBIM/QMI functionality on RM500U-CNV
• Flash latest stable firmware to RM530N-GL
• Confirm compatibility with OpenWrt-based routing system
⸻
- Additional info:
I purchased RM500U-CNV and RM530N-GL modules from:

If needed, I can provide more AT command outputs or logs.
Thanks in advance for your support!
