ADDING/UPDATING the 4G/WiMAX DRIVER
A compatible modem driver needs to be added to the CradlePoint router to connect a 4G/WiMAX modem.
NOTE: Install the 4G modem driver AFTER you update the firmware.
TROUBLE CONNECTING WiFi DEVICES
Some WiFi-enabled devices may initially have trouble connecting to the internet successfully.
One cause of connection issues could be the CradlePoint User Login feature.
Devices that are commonly known to have trouble are:
- iPad
- Xbox 360
- Wii
- PSP
- Most WiFi-enabled video game systems
- Most WiFi-enabled devices that are not PCs or Macs
To allow these devices access, follow the instructions
below to disable the user login.
1) Go to your router administration page by typing
http://192.168.0.1 in the browser address bar.
2) Select TOOLS on the top navigation bar, then
USER LOGIN in the left menu.
3) Uncheck the REQUIRE USER LOGIN check box.
4) Scroll to the top of the page and click SAVE
SETTINGS. When prompted, click REBOOT NOW
which will save and reboot the router with your new configuration.
Note: Because the User Login page adds security and access control for your router,
you should enable additional security features such as WEP or WPA when turning off
the User Login Page. See SETTING WiFi SECURITY on page 5 for details.
