When you log in for the first time, you will be automatically directed to the
FIRST TIME SETUP WIZARD
, which will walk you through basic steps to customize your router.
To return to the First Time Setup Wizard after your initial login, go to
Getting Started
→
First Time Setup
in the dropdown menu. You have the ability to configure any
of the following:
Administrator Password
Time Zone
WiFi Network Name
Security Mode
Access Point Name (APN) for SIM-based modems
Modem Authentication
Failure Check
Administrator Password
CradlePoint recommends that you change the router’s
ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD
, which is used to log into the administration pages. The administrator password is
separate from the WiFi security password, although initially the
Default Password
is used for both.
NOTE: If you plan to use your router in a PCI DSS compliant environment, do not use this setting. Use the “Advanced Security Mode”
settings under the Router Security tab in
System Settings
→
Administration
instead.
Time Zone
You can select your
TIME ZONE
from a dropdown list. (This may be necessary to properly show time in your router log, but typically your router will automatically determine
your time zone through your browser.)

WiFi Network Name
CradlePoint recommends that you customize your WiFi network name. Type in your personalized network name here. You can also enable the Guest Network feature (for
more configuration options, see
Network Settings
→
WiFi / Local Networks
).
