Features of the MBR1400 (continued)
The CradlePoint MBR1400 is a business-grade router specifically designed
for retail locations and small/branch offices. Optimized for performance,
reliability, and maximum WiFi range, the MBR1400 has access to a cloud-
based tool called WiPipe Central, for group-based configuration,
management, and monitoring of remotely deployed routers.
Secure Access
The MBR1400 supports WEP, WPA, WPA2 and AES encryption modes to create secure internet connections
for up to 128 connected devices via WiFi and unlimited via Ethernet. Prevent unwanted access to computers
connected to your networks with an SPI Firewall and NAT (Network Address Translation). Features like URL

Cloud-Based Router Management Service
WiPipe Central: Efficiently manage the edge of your corporate network.
CradlePoint’s cloud-based management service, WiPipe Central, gives you a consolidated router man-
agement tool to communicate with and manage dispersed CradlePoint routers. This service allows you
to have firmware update and configuration options for the edge of your network, as well as gain informa-
tion about other data connections (4G/3G/T1/DSL/Cable/etc) across geographies and networks.
Designed to eliminate conflict with existing firewalls (using device-initiated HTTP protocols), WiPipe
Central has user-defined groups for quick communication with all grouped devices. It provides remote
access to an individual router or pre-defined group for firmware and configuration updates.
CradlePoint has a demonstration of WiPipe Central available for your use.
visit: www.cradlepoint.com/services
username: Demo
password: Demo
NOTE: This account is tied to 15 dedicated routers at CradlePoint Headquarters. The routers and account are live – you may view connection status, update firmware, and
change the configuration settings. The routers and management account are reset nightly to original settings.
To learn more about WiPipe Central, contact [email protected]
WiFi Networks
The MBR1400 can make two WiFi networks on either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz band. The main (private)
SSID is used for your trusted workgroup members. The Guest (public) SSID provides full, secure access
to the internet - but users are restricted from accessing the router administration console or any connected
devices on the private network. Each network can be configured for QoS for levels like VoIP or other ap-
plications. The ability to “Hide” network names (SSIDs) from broadcast is also available.
HOW TO CONFIGURE: Enable the Guest Network in Step 2 of the First Time Setup Wizard. It will appear by
default as “Guest-XXX” in your available networks list. (XXX = the last three characters of your routers MAC Address).
WiFi as WAN
The MBR1400 can receive an existing WiFi signal and use it to create secure internet access, allowing you
to connect up to 128 devices using the MBR1400’s security features. The WiFi as WAN feature can be
used as a WiFi repeater or as a WiFi to Ethernet adapter for non-WiFi devices. Turning on WiFi as WAN
will disable Guest Network if established.
HOW TO CONFIGURE: Enable this feature by logging in to your router (see steps 1 & 2 on page 7) and
select INTERNET on the top navigation bar and then WiFi as WAN settings in the drop-down menu.
Click ENABLED and APPLY to select the WiFi network you’d like to use as your Internet Connection.
