HUAWEI Mobile Connect - 3G GPS Interface (COM5) Driver

The HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G GPS Interface (COM5) driver helps Windows recognize and communicate with the GPS-related serial interface exposed by compatible Huawei USB mobile broadband hardware. It is intended for users whose device appears as an unknown interface, has a driver warning in Device Manager, or is not accessible to compatible GPS software.

Key Features

• USB interface recognition: Identifies the Huawei GPS-related interface so Windows can make it available to supported applications.
• Serial port access: Enables communication through a virtual COM port. Although this device is listed as COM5, Windows may assign a different port number after installation.
• Legacy Windows compatibility: Intended for Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP, provided the selected driver package matches your hardware and operating system architecture.
• Application connectivity: Allows compatible software to access the interface when the Huawei hardware and firmware support GPS functionality. Installing the driver alone does not add GPS capability to unsupported hardware.

How to Install HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G GPS Interface (COM5) Driver

1. Confirm your device and Windows version. Open Device Manager, locate the Huawei interface, and check its hardware IDs under Properties > Details. Also verify whether your Windows installation is 32-bit or 64-bit.
2. Choose a matching package. Before starting your HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G GPS Interface (COM5) driver download for Windows, check the package’s supported hardware and operating systems. Look for the latest version compatible with your device, rather than assuming the newest package supports every model.
3. Download and prepare the files. Use a trusted source for a free download, scan the package with your security software, and extract it if it arrives as an archive.
4. Install the driver. Run the supplied installer, if available. Alternatively, right-click the interface in Device Manager, select the option to update its driver, and browse to the extracted driver folder.
5. Verify the connection. Restart Windows if prompted, reconnect the Huawei device, and confirm that Device Manager shows the interface without a warning. Select its assigned COM port in your GPS application.

Keep the driver updated when a compatible release addresses connection problems or improves reliability. For Windows 10/11 users, note that Windows 10 is listed as supported, but Windows 11 compatibility is not confirmed here; verify it with the package provider before attempting an update. If the current driver works reliably, check release notes before replacing it.
