CRADLEPOINT MBR1200 | USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 1.6.12

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 MBR1200. Next, click on the Connect button in the bottom right corner of the window.

If more than one MBR1200 wireless router is visible, you can find the correct unit by checking

for its SSID. Your wireless router uses the SSID of MBR1200-xxx, where “xxx” is the last 3

digits of the router‟s MAC address. The MAC address can be found on the MBR1200 product

box or the bottom of the MBR1200 unit. Once you have completed your wireless connection

to the MBR1200 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 MBR1200’s MAC address found on the side panel of the MBR1200 product box

or the bottom of the MBR1200.

 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:

Wizard) 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.
