  • Page 76 (default: 72 to 200, as in 192.168.0.72 to 192.168.0.200). Example: The MBR1200B uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1 for its primary network by default. A computer designated as a Web server has a static IP address of 192.168.0.3. Another computer is designated as an FTP server with a static IP address of 192.168.0.4.

This name is referred to as the SSID (service set identifier). For security purposes, CradlePoint highly recommends that you change this from the pre- configured name.
  • Page 80 NOTE: If you don‘t know whether you should choose Personal or Enterprise, assume Personal since you need to know RADIUS authentication for Enterprise. In order to protect your network from hackers and unauthorized users, CradlePoint highly recommends WPA2/AES for security if your attached devices can support it. WEP and WPA/TKIP are obsolete and have been replaced by WPA/AES.
  • Page 81 MBR1200B| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.0 CRADLEPOINT NOTE: If you select one of the security modes and are unable to connect to the router afterwards, you can use the reset buttons to reset the router to its factory default state and try a different security mode instead.

The WiFi channel corresponds to a frequency the router uses to communicate with other devices. The range is 1 to 11, and 1, 6, and 11 do not overlap each other. If a WiMAX modem is attached, a higher number channel will increase the chance the router's WiFi and modem's WiMAX radios will conflict with each other, which may result in lower throughput.
  • Page 86 MBR1200B| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.0 CRADLEPOINT DTIM: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value.
  • Page 87 MBR1200B| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.6.0 CRADLEPOINT Greenfield Mode: Greenfield mode uses an 802.11n-only preamble to transmit packets that older wireless clients cannot interpret. Use of greenfield mode in a mixed 802.11 environment may result in degraded performance but can improve performance if all devices in the area are 802.11n compatible.

    Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels can be used to create a connection between two private networks. The MBR1200B is enabled for either GRE or VPN tunnels. GRE tunnels are simpler to configure and more flexible for different kinds of packet exchanges, but VPN tunnels are much more secure.

    The MBR1200B uses IPsec (Internet Protocol security) to authenticate and encrypt packets exchanged across the tunnel. To set up a VPN tunnel with the MBR1200B on one end, there must be another device (usually a router) that also supports IPsec on the other end.

By default, all the algorithms (encryption, hash, and DH groups) supported by the MBR1200B are checked, which means they are allowed for any given exchange. Deselect these options to limit which algorithms will be accepted. Be sure to check that the router (or similar device) at the other end of the tunnel has matching algorithms.

These must match the identities on the other side: The Local Identity must match the Remote Identity on the other side of the tunnel, and vice versa.

  • Page 126: Wifi As Wan / Bridge

    WiFi as WAN uses another WiFi network as its Internet source and then rebroadcasts its own local network. For example, the MBR1200B can create a private LAN using the public WiFi from a hotel as its WAN. WiFi Bridge functions similarly, but it rebroadcasts the original network.
