Summary
Review the details and record your wireless network name, administrative password, and WPA password (or WEP key). Move your mouse over your WiFi password to reveal it.
Please record these settings for future access. You may need this information to configure other wireless devices.
NOTE: If you are currently using the device's WiFi network, reconnect to the network using the new wireless network name and security
password.
Click APPLY to save the settings and update them to your router.
IP Passthrough Setup
You can quickly enable IP passthrough with the IP Passthrough Setup Wizard available under Getting Started → IP Passthrough Setup. IP passthrough takes a 3G/4G
WAN data source (USB, ExpressCard, or CradlePoint business-grade modem) and passes the IP address through to Ethernet LAN.
Using this function requires many changes to your router configuration. The IP Passthrough Setup Wizard will automatically make these changes for you: simply read through
the wizard and select Enable IP Passthrough on the second page. For further configuration options, see Network Settings → WiFi / Local Networks.
Review the list of changes to ensure they are compatible with your router needs:
All Ethernet ports will be set to LAN (i.e. you cannot use Ethernet as an Internet source for your router).
All WAN devices will have Load Balance disabled and the highest priority device will be used.
All network groups except the primary network group will be removed.
All wireless interfaces will be removed from the primary network group. (It is possible to have a wireless interface associated with another network.)
All router-based VPN and GRE services will be disabled.
The Routing Mode will be set to IP Passthrough. (Network Settings → WiFi / Local Networks in the “Local Network Editor” under “IP Settings”)
The Subnet Selection Mode will be set to "Automatically Create Subnet" (Network Settings → WiFi / Local Networks in the “Local Network Editor” under “IP
Settings” – this shows once IP Passthrough is set as the Routing Mode). You have the option to override this and select Force 24 Subnet, which forces a subnet
of 255.255.255.0 and uses the first available address in the network as the gateway. This is for compatibility with equipment that may not handle modem addressing
schemes; this should not be used unless necessary.
Any Ethernet WAN connections should be disconnected before IP passthrough is enabled.
