3 QUICK START

3.1 Basic Setup

 Your router requires an Internet source. Insert a supported USB or ExpressCard modem, connect a Cable or DSL

modem to the Ethernet port (this requires a settings change because the Ethernet port is not set as WAN by default; see ―Ethernet Port Configuration‖ in Network Settings → WiFi / Local Networks), or connect to an available WiFi source (see Internet → WiFi as WAN Settings to enable WiFi as WAN). For Failover/Failback functionality, you will need at least two of these sources (for example: one Ethernet source and one USB modem).1

 Connect the 12v DC power adapter to the router and a power source. Flip the power switch to the ON position; this

should illuminate the green Power Status LED.

3.2 Connect to a Computer or other Device

3.2.1 Wireless Network Connection

1) Find the network. On a WiFi-enabled computer or device, open the window or dropdown menu that allows you to access wireless networks. The CBR400 network will appear on the list: select this network.

2) Log in. You will need to input the Default Password when prompted. The Default Password is the last eight digits of the router‘s MAC address, which can be found on the product box or on the product label on the bottom of the router.

NOTE: If more than one CBR400 wireless router is visible, you can find the correct unit by checking for its SSID (service set identifier; the unique name of the local network). The SSID can be found on the bottom of the router in the form CBR400-xxx, where ―xxx‖ is the last 3 digits of the router‘s MAC address.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

3.2.2 Accessing the Administration Pages For most users, the CBR400 Router can be

used immediately without any special configuration changes. If you would like to change your network name or password or configure any of the advanced features of the CBR400, you will need to log in to the administration pages:

 Access your router‘s Administrator

Login screen by opening a web

browser window and typing ―cp/‖ (your network‘s default hostname) or the IP address ―192.168.0.1‖ into the address bar.

 Enter your Default Password. This password can be found on the bottom of the CBR400 as the last eight digits of

the MAC address. Then click the LOGIN button.

 When you log in for the first time, you will be automatically directed to the First Time Setup Wizard. Follow the

instructions given with the Wizard or see Getting Started – First Time Setup for more information about using the First Time Setup Wizard.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

3.2.3 Connect to the Internet If you used the First Time Setup Wizard, you might have

changed the ―WiFi Network Name‖ or the ―Security Mode‖ password. If so, you will need to reconnect to the CBR400 network.

 Find the network. Look for your new personalized

network name (or the default SSID of the form ―CBR400xxx‖).

 Log in using your new personalized WiFi security

password (or the Default Password found the bottom of the router as the last eight digits of the MAC address).

Your network should now be up and running, and users who have the security password can access the network on WiFi-enabled devices.

3.3 Common Problems

This section contains a list of some of the most common issues faced by users of the CBR400. Please visit CradlePoint Knowledgebase at http://knowledgebase.cradlepoint.com/ for more help and answers to your

other questions.

3.3.1 Your USB or ExpressCard Modem Does Not Work With the Router  If your USB data or ExpressCard is not working with the router, check the list of supported devices at

http://www.cradlepoint.com/modems to ensure you are using a supported device and carrier. The device you are

using must be supported on the carrier network providing your cellular service or it‘s considered an unsupported device, even if it is supported on another carrier‘s network.

 Sometimes a USB data modem needs to be updated or have other configurations set correctly in order to make a

connection through the router. If your USB Modem has not been updated recently, it is recommended that you do so if it is having trouble connecting to the CBR400. Insert your USB data modem into your PC and access the Internet using the software provided by your cellular carrier. Follow the directions provided to complete the update. Once you have updated your USB data modem, reconnect the cellular device to your CradlePoint router and connect to the Internet.

 If you are using a 4G WiMAX modem you need to set the WiMAX Realm. This can be done on the administration

pages. Log in using the hostname ―cp/‖ or IP address ―http://192.168.0.1‖ in your browser. On page 3 of the First Time Setup Wizard (go to Getting Started → First Time Setup), you can set the WiMAX Realm. Be sure to click Apply on page 4 to save the change.

 Some wireless carriers provide more than one Access Point Name (APN) that a modem can connect to. If you wish

to specify the APN, this can be done on the administration pages. Log in using the hostname ―cp/‖ or IP address ―http://192.168.0.1‖ in your browser. Go to Internet → Modem Settings. In the Modem Configuration section, select your modem and click ―Configure.‖ There is an Access Point Name field: Enter the APN and click Apply. Some APN examples are isp.cingular, ecp.tmobile.com, and vpn.com. The modem must be removed and reinserted (or the router must be rebooted) for this change to take effect.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

 If the above issues have been resolved and you can connect to the router but you cannot get Internet through it

using your modem, you may need to upgrade the router firmware. Use your computer (you may need to plug your modem directly into your computer if you don‘t have another way to access the Internet) to download the latest firmware for the router (go to http://www.cradlepoint.com/support/cbr400 and scroll over firmware at the bottom of the page). Then log in to the router administration pages and manually upload the firmware. Go to System Settings → System Software and click on ―Manual Firmware Upload‖.

 If you are still unable to access the Internet after following the above directions, contact CradlePoint Technical

Support for further assistance.

3.3.2 You are Connected to the Router but Cannot Connect to the Internet

The status LEDs of your router will give you an indication whether or not a proper connection is being made. If the USB data modem LEDs are not illuminated, your modem is not connected and online. You may need to update firmware. Refer to the previous section, ―Your USB or ExpressCard Modem Does Not Work With The Router.‖

If you are still not online after updating, call CradlePoint Technical Support for further assistance.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

4.2 Getting Started – First Time Setup

The First Time Setup Wizard will help you customize the name of your wireless network, change passwords to something you choose, and establish an optimal WiFi security mode. The CBR400 comes out of the box with a unique password at WPA1/WPA2 WiFi security level.

NOTE: Instructions for the First Time Setup Wizard are also located in the Setup Guide included with the CBR400.

1) Open a browser window and type ―cp/‖ or ―192.168.0.1‖ into the address bar. Press enter/return.

2) When prompted for your password, type the eight character Default Password found on the product label on the bottom of the CBR400 as the last 8 digits of the router‘s MAC address.

3) When you log in for the first time, you will be automatically directed to the FIRST TIME SETUP

WIZARD. (Otherwise, go to Getting Started → First Time Setup).

4) CradlePoint recommends that you change the router‘s ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD, which is used to log in to the administration pages. The administrator password is separate from the WiFi security password, although initially the Default Password is used for both.

5) You can select your TIME ZONE from a dropdown list. (This may be necessary to properly show time in your router log, but typically your router will automatically determine your time zone through your browser.) Click NEXT.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

6) CradlePoint recommends that you customize your WiFi Network Name. Type in your personalized Network name here. You can also enable the Guest Network feature (for more configuration options, see Network Settings → WiFi / Local Networks and the Wireless (WiFi) Network Settings section of this manual).

Choose the WIFI SECURITY MODE that best fits your needs:

 BEST (WPA2): Select this option if your

wireless adapters support WPA2-only mode. This will connect to most new devices and is the most secure, but may not connect to older devices or some handheld devices such as a PSP.

 GOOD (WPA1 & WPA2): Select this option if

your wireless adapters support WPA or WPA2. This is the most compatible with modern devices and PCs.

 POOR (WEP): Select this option if your

wireless adapters only support WEP. This should only be used if a legacy device that only supports WEP will be connected to the router. WEP is insecure and obsolete and is only supported in the router for legacy reasons. The router cannot use 802.11n modes if WEP is enabled; WiFi performance and range will be limited.

 NONE (OPEN): Select this option if you do not want to activate any security features.

CradlePoint recommends BEST (WPA2) WiFi security. Try this option first and switch only if you have a device that

is incompatible with WPA2.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

Choose a personalized WPA PASSWORD or WEP KEY. This password will be used to connect devices to the router‘s WiFi broadcast once the security settings have been saved.

 WPA Password: The WPA Password must be between 8 and 64 characters long. A combination of upper and

lower case letters along with numbers and special characters is recommended to prevent hackers from gaining access to your network.

 WEP Key: A WEP Key must be either a hexadecimal value of 5 or 13 characters or a text value of 10 or 26

characters.

Click NEXT.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

7) If you are using a 4G WiMAX modem, you will want to establish the Realm for your carrier. This setting ensures that the modem, when attached to the router, will properly connect to your carrier‘s wireless broadband service. The CBR400 will default to the Sprint Realm. Select your carrier from the dropdown menu (options shown below).

 Clear - clearwire-wmx.net  Rover - rover-wmx.net  Sprint 3G/4G - sprintpcs.com  Xohm - xohm.com  BridgeMAXX - bridgeMAXX.com  Time Warner Cable - mobile.rr.com  Comcast - mob.comcast.net

NOTE: If you use a 3G or LTE modem you can safely skip this step.

Click NEXT.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

8) Configuring Failure Check: It is possible for a WAN interface to go down without

the router recognizing the failure. (For example: the carrier for a cellular modem goes dormant, or your Ethernet connection is properly attached to a modem but the modem becomes disconnected from its Internet source.) Enable Failure Check to ensure that you can get out to the Internet via your primary WAN connection. This option is disabled by default because it may use data unnecessarily. Use this in combination with failover, or for cellular modems, use this in combination with Aggressive Reset (Internet → Connection Manager under Modem Settings in the interface/rule editor).

Idle Check Interval: Set the number of seconds the router will wait between checks to see if the WAN is still available. (Default: 30 seconds. Range: 10-3600 seconds.)

Monitor while connected: Select from the dropdown menu. (Default: Off)

 Active Ping: A ping request will be sent to the Ping Target. If no data is received, the ping request will be

retried 4 times at 5-second intervals. If still no data is received, the device will be disconnected and failover will

occur. When ―Active Ping‖ is selected, the next line gives an estimate of data usage in this form: ―Active Ping

could use as much as 9.3 MB of data per month.‖ This amount depends on the Idle Check Interval.

 Off: Once the link is established the router takes no action to verify that it is still up.

Ping IP Address: If you selected ―Active Ping‖, you will need to input an IP address that will respond to a ping request.

This IP address must be an address that can be reached through your WAN connection (modem/Ethernet). Some ISPs/Carriers block certain addresses, so choose an address that all of your WAN connections can use. For best results, select an established public IP address. For example, you might ping Google Public DNS at 8.8.8.8 or Level 3

Communications at 4.2.2.2.

Click NEXT.

CRADLEPOINT CBR400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.1

9) Review the details and record your wireless network name, administrative password, and WPA password (or WEP key). Move your mouse over the passwords to selectively reveal each password.

Please record these settings for future access. You may need this information to configure other wireless devices.

NOTE: If you are currently using this network, reconnect your devices to the network using the new wireless network name and security password.

Click APPLY to save the settings and update them to your router.

The following table shows the navigation layout of the administration pages. Click on the tabs along the top bar to reveal the following dropdown menus.

Status – Displays various types of information about your router such as a list of clients that are attached to your

networks (Client List), the details of each Internet source your router is using (Internet Connections), and a map of your router‘s location (GPS). Very few changes can be made from this tab because the primary purpose is to display information.

Network Settings – Provides configuration options for the networks, or LAN, created by your router. For example, you

can enable a guest WiFi network (WiFi / Local Networks), set up rules to filter websites (Content Filtering), or create a traffic-shaping rule to set bandwidth priorities (WiPipe QoS).

Internet – Provides configuration options for the Internet sources, or WAN, used by the router. For example, you can set

up a rule to track how much data you are using per month on a modem (Data Usage), set WiFi to be an Internet source (WiFi as WAN / Bridge), or set the failback order for your Internet sources (Connection Manager).
