• 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.
Configuring Your APN and Modem Authentication
If you are using a SIM-based modem (LTE/GSM/HSPA) with
your Cradlepoint router you may need to configure the APN
before it will properly connect to your carrier. Wireless
carriers offer several APNs so check with your carrier to
confirm the appropriate one to use. You can use the default
password on the back of your product, or you can create a
custom Administrator Password.
NOTE : DO NOT USE THIS APN WIZARD if you have already
configured an APN. Any specific modem settings will not be
overwritten by this generic APN setup. Leave this setting as default and after finishing this Wizard go to the
CONNECTION MANAGER page, select your modem, and edit the settings. The SIM PIN/APN tab has more available
settings than are provided here.
Some modems require a username and password to be entered to authenticate with a carrier. Do not fill in the
following fields unless you are sure your modem needs authentication.
• Authentication Protocol
• Username
• Password
Enable and Configure Failure Check
Failure check will test the connection to verify the WAN device is
connected.
•
Idle Check Interval : Set the number of seconds the router will wait
between checks to see if the WAN is still available.
• Failure Check :
• Off : Once the link is established the router takes no action to
verify that it is still up.
• On : Modems will be set to use the Passive DNS failure check
type. Ethernet and WiFi as WAN connections will be set to use
Active Ping.
• Ping IP Address : 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.
