3.3 Establishing a Wireless Internet Connection
3.3.1 Wireless Network Connection
On a Wi-Fi-enabled computer or device, open the View Wireless Networks window and
click on the MBR-xxx. Next, click on the Connect button in the bottom right corner of the
window.
If more than one MBR-xxx wireless router is visible, you can find the correct unit by
checking for its SSID. Your wireless router uses the SSID of MBR-
xxx, where “xxx” is the
las t 3 digits of the router‟s MAC address. The MAC address can be found on the
MBR1000 product box or the bottom of the MBR1000 unit. Once you have completed your
wireless connection to the MBR1000 router, you should set up security on your wireless
network by following the procedures identified in the next step (recommended). You can
connect directly onto the Internet without security (not recommended) by skipping the next
step.
3.3.2 Setting Up Wireless Network Security
Wi-Fi Security is highly recommended by CradlePoint. Wi-Fi Security is separate from the
User Login Page
. Setting “Wi-Fi Security” on your router prevents users from connecting
their computers to your router unless they have you wireless security password.
Follow The Steps Below to Set the Wi-Fi Security:
 Access your router Administration Login screen by opening a web browser window
and typing the IP address http://192.168.0.1 into the address bar.
 Enter your Default Administrative Password. This password is the last 6 digits of
the MBR1000
’s MAC address found on the side panel of the MBR1000 product box
or the bottom of the MBR1000.

After you enter the password, click the Log In button.
 After you are logged in, click on the BASIC menu tab at the top of the setup
window. Next, click the Launch Setup Wizard button in the middle of the screen.
 Follow the instructions in the Setup Wizard (Outlined in section 4.2 of this
document) to complete the setup (Basic
→ Wizard).

After security setup has been completed, continue to the next Step to use your new
Security- Enabled Internet Connection.
