Getting Started
1. Connect the Router to a Modem / Data Source.
Keep the router in the OFF position until the modem is securely connected. Connect a CradlePoint Business-Grade Modem
or a supported USB or ExpressCard modem to the router in the appropriate port or slot. Your modem will require an active
subscription from your service provider. If you have not already done so, add a service plan to your Integrated Business-Grade
Modem by contacting your service provider. You will need the modem identifier (IMEI or MEID) and the ID from your SIM card/
UICC. See page 8 for SIM card/UICC installation instructions. For Ethernet WAN, connect a Cable or DSL modem to the blue
Ethernet WAN port.
2. Connect the WiFi and Modem Antennas.
Attach the three included WiFi and optional modem antennas to the connectors. Antennas are jointed, which enables you to
position them for optimal WiFi broadcast. To attach, hold the antenna straight and twist the base of the antenna to connect, folding
the joint if needed. Please note that 2.4 GHz antennas are provided. 5 GHz antennas are available as accessories.
3. Connect to a Power Source.
Connect the router to the provided power supply (12V DC Wall Adapter). When you flip the power switch to the ON ( I ) position, watch for the appropriate modem LED to illuminate. Ensure the connected modem LED is lit with a solid green light, which
indicates that the modem is properly connected. For other LED states, please see descriptions on pages 10 and 11.

4. Connect to a Computer or other Network Equipment.
In order to access the MBR1400, establish a connection to the router. Connect wirelessly to the WiFi broadcast, or with an
Ethernet cable connected to your computer and then plugged into one of the orange Ethernet ports.
The default WiFi network name broadcast is “MBR1400-xxx”, where “xxx” is the last three characters of your router’s MAC address
(this is the “SSID” on the product label).
To connect to the WiFi, input the default password when prompted. The
default password is provided on the product label found on the bottom of
your router (see example below).
5. Use.
For most users, the MBR1400 router can be used immediately without any
special configuration changes. If you would like to change your network
name, level of WiFi security, etc. follow the First Time Setup Wizard steps on
page 9.
