Features

Use a CradlePoint Wireless N Portable Router your way.

The CTR35 converts a 4G or 3G USB Data Modem into a secure 16-connection wireless network.  It can also use traditional Cable/DSL Ethernet-based modems to create ~350-feet of WiFi.  Or use existing WiFi to create a secure connection with an unsecure public hotspot.

CradlePoint routers are built to work with the most popular 4G/3G USB Modems from wireless operators such as:  AT&T, Bell Canada, Clearwire, Cricket, Rogers, Rover, Sprint, T-Mobile, Telus, US Cellular, Verizon Wireless (Alltel), & Virgin Mobile. See "Supported Devices" tab below for the current list of supported modems.

GUEST WIFI NETWORKS

Your router can make two WiFi networks: one private and one public. Guests on the public network have full, secure access to the internet - but are restricted from accessing the router administration or connected devices on private network.

Enable the Guest Network in Step 2 of the First Time Setup Wizard.  It will appear as “Guest” in your available networks list.

PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS

Internet Service and Modem   Must have at least one of the following:  USB Wireless Broadband Data Modem with Active Subscription, a supported Smart Phone with Active Data + Tethering Plan, a Cable, DSL, Satellite, T1, or T3 Ethernet Modem, or access to WiFi (WiFi as WAN).

WiFi AS WAN

Public WiFi networks aren’t very secure, but are generally free. The CTR35 can receive a WiFi signal and use it to create internet access, allowing you to securely connect up to 16 devices using the CTR35’s security features.


Enable this feature by logging in to your router (see steps 1 & 2 on page 5)  and selecting INTERNET on the top navigation bar and then WiFi as WAN Settings in the dropdown menu. Click ENABLE and select the WiFi network you’d like to use as your Internet Connection.
