Join Air

What is Join Air?

Join Air is the control manager software for ZTE modems and is typically unbranded and can be used with any mobile network carrier.

Overview

Join Air is a program developed by ZTE. The most used version is 1.0.0.1, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Upon installation and setup, it defines an auto-start registry entry which makes this program run on each Windows boot for all user logins. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The main program executable is UIMain.exe. The software installer includes 49 files and is usually about 64.92 MB (68,071,990 bytes). CMUpdater.exe is the automatic update component of the software designed to download and apply new updates should new versions be released. In comparison to the total number of users, most PCs are running the OS Windows 7 (SP1) as well as Windows 10. While about 36% of users of Join Air come from Indonesia, it is also popular in Thailand and Italy.
