The CradlePoint IBR650E is a highly-featured, compact and robust router designed for deployment in critical business and enterprise applications that require 24x7 connectivity via Ethernet. The router features a built-in high-speed 3G EVDO modem as well as support for wired networks such as DSL or Cable. With its compact size, sleek metal case and mounting bracket, and external Cellular antennas the IBR650E is ideal for use in high-availability portable or fixed applications (ATM, kiosk, surveillance, vehicle). With failover/failback capability, the IBR650E supports wired and wireless internet.

The router increases internet availability and business continuity by detecting network failures and seamlessly switching over to the other network(s). It is also ideal for deployment as a primary connection solution where wired internet is not available. The IBR650E provides secure and reliable VPN functionality, allowing users to create, manage, and terminate up to 5 concurrent IPSec VPN sessions. It allows for secure access to company networks for enterprise applications and provides a secure way to transmit sensitive data to and from a remote site.

1.3.1WiPipe Central

CradlePoint‘s cloud-based router management service allows for remote monitoring, configuration, and firmware updates of deployed routers like the IBR650. WiPipe Central drastically simplifies router administration for businesses using multiple routers. WiPipe Central can be purchased separately at http://cradlepoint.com/support/wipipe-central.

2.1 Ports, LEDs, and Switches

Power 12VDC: The power connector includes two pins for power and two pins for GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) functionality. The included power adapter, however, only connects to the power pins. You will need a separate adapter for GPIO functionality.

Reset: You can return your router to factory default settings by pressing and holding the Reset button. This button is recessed, so it requires a pointed object such as a paper clip to press. Press and hold for 10 seconds to initiate reset.

Ethernet Ports: By default, the IBR650 has one WAN (Wide Area Network—your internet source) port and one LAN (Local Area Network) port. Each of these ports can be reconfigured, however, if you need two LAN or two WAN Ethernet ports.

Ethernet LED:

Solid Green – connected

Blinking Green – data transfer activity

Micro USB: This port can be used to attach a direct firmware upgrade to enable manual firmware upgrades if necessary.

Attach the modem antennas.

2. Plug the power supply into

 

 

an electrical outlet and

 

 

connect it to the IBR650.

3.Make sure the power is switched on.

O = OFF I = ON

3.1.1Activate Your Modem

A wireless broadband data plan must be added to your IBR650. Wireless broadband data plans are available from wireless carriers such as Sprint and Verizon. A new line of service can be added or a data plan can be transferred from an existing account. You will need the ESN number from your product label on your router to add or transfer a line of service.

After adding a data plan to the modem, the modem may need to be activated. To activate the modem:

1.Log in to the IBR650 administration pages (see Accessing the Administration Pages).

2.Select Internet from the top navigation bar and Modem Settings from the dropdown menu (Internet → Modem

Settings).

3.Find and select the CradlePoint modem.

3.1.2Accessing the Administration Pages

For most users the IBR650 Router can be used immediately without any special configuration changes. Simply connect a computer or similar device to the router‘s Ethernet LAN port with an

Ethernet cable. If you would like to change your administration password or configure any of the advanced features of the IBR650, 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 router‘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 IBR650. 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.

3.2 Common Problems

Please visit CradlePoint Knowledgebase at http://knowledgebase.cradlepoint.com/ for more help and answers to your other questions.

3.2.1You are Connected to the Router but Cannot Connect to the Internet

Make sure that you have an active data plan and that your modem has been activated. A wireless broadband data plan must be added to your IBR650. Wireless broadband data plans are available from wireless carriers such as Sprint and Verizon. A new line of service can be added or a data plan can be transferred from an existing account. You will need the ESN number from your product label on your router to add or transfer a line of service.

After adding a data plan to the modem, you must activate the modem:

1.Log in to the IBR650 administration pages (see Accessing the Administration Pages).

2.Select Internet from the top navigation bar and Modem Settings from the dropdown menu (Internet → Modem

Settings).

3.Find and select the CradlePoint modem.

4.Click Update/Activate.

5.Click Activate in the popup.

Finally, if you have an active data plan and you have already activated your modem, you may be out of range of your service provider. Check your signal strength in the Internet section of the Dashboard (Status → Dashboard). If you have a weak signal in your location, contact your service provider.

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

4.5 Network Settings vs. Internet

When using the Web interface, it will be important to pay attention to the difference between the internet source for your IBR650 and the network created by the IBR650. The “Internet” tab broadly refers to the router‘s source of internet, while the “Network Settings” tab broadly refers to the network created by the router.

The following chart highlights this difference:

Network Settings tab

Internet tab

Internet ―output‖

Internet ―input‖

Network created by IBR650

Source for IBR650

LAN (Local Area Network)

WAN (Wide Area Network)

 

 

Examples:

If you want to change the content filtering settings for the network created by the IBR650, go to the Network Settings tab.

If you have multiple internet sources—such as the embedded modem and an Ethernet connection—for which you would like to set priority levels, go to the Internet tab.
