Product Description
Always Connected
The CradlePoint MBR1000 is a robust 802.11N router with 3G, 4G or WiMax failover capability for small office/home office, temporary and remote enterprise environments for continuous, always-available connectivity.

Never Worry About DSL, Cable, or T1 Outages Again
With its' built-in failover capability, the MBR1000 automatically switches from a primary wired (DSL cable, T1, etc.) connection to wireless mobile broadband network when primary service is disrupted. Once service is restored, the MBR1000 will automatically failback from wireless mobile broadband to the primary wired ISP without interruption to users.

1 out of 5 stars Avoid Cradlepoint MBR-1000   June 22, 2010
David R. Bricksin (San Jose, CA USA)
Cradlepoint doesn't offer out of warranty support and suggests only to buy a new unit. Given some stability issues previously mentioned and lack of support, I'd suggest you avoid this unit.

I purchased this unit about 14 months ago. It was purchased from [....]. I had decided to finally get my parents some sort of high speed internet because dial up just wasn't cutting it. They live in the woods about 5 miles from the I-5 freeway but DSL or Cable doesn't come down the road. It goes right by the end of it but not down it. So for Christmas of '08 I went to Sprint and purchased the Air Card, well the card was free just had to sign up for a 1 year contract. I asked them about a router for this and they told me to visit [...] and look at Cradlepoint. I found the MBR1000 and when I buy something I want to make sure it is the best. So I purchased it. Got it in about 4 days. Once I figure out where I was going to get the best signal for the air card it took me about 10 minutes to set up the router, air car, and my parents computers. I have had no trouble with it. I think the LOS (Line of Sight) is underestimated. I purchase a range booster for it as well and the neighbor said he could get 1-2 bars of signal (Router signal not modem) at his place. He is about 100yds from my parents house with a couple of trees in the way is all. We unplugged the range booster and the signal stayed the same. Turns out the Router itself was getting that range. He could sit out on his deck and use his laptop with 1meg download speeds. I would recommend this product to anyone. As a matter of fact a close friend of mine doesn't have high speed internet at her house and she wants to get the same thing that my parents have. I am going to recommend the MBR1000 especially since it has gone down in price since I purchased it. I was astounded by the range it can get. I did however have to purchase an antenna for the modem itself because it wasn't the best cell signal in that area but I went from 1-2 bars, 2nd bar flashing to 3 solid bars of signal with the external antenna mounted on the deck. DO NOT but directional range booster antennas because the cell companies will not tell you where the towers are so you can aim it. The margin of error in pointing one of those is too small to get it. I used a Trucker antenna from Wilson Electronics that works great. I hope someone finds this useful and makes a decision based on this review.

no complaints, every once in a while I have to unplug the unit and plug back in. Not sure if this is the router or my modem.

We live in the country where hi speed internet is not an option. My wife has used dial up for about 10 years and I've been using the Verizon Aircard for the past 2 years which is quite faster than dial up. I plugged the Verizon Aircard in the MBR1000 and turned it on. My computer picked up the WIFI signal and I was running. Not to mention my computer is now much faster with the added boost. Not to mention now my wife (uses an Apple) can also get on-line using the same signal, and much faster than dial-up. Not to mention we can drop the $15/month dial up charges. Now we can go anywhere in the house, including the back deck and get a strong signal. No more wires. Free at last!


1 out of 5 stars Not stable at all   August 17, 2009

I have been using a D-Link DIR-450 for over a year, however since I got two 3G connection; I bought this to load balance. However I have to re-boot this at least once every day. We never had to do it with D-link, I am pulling this out to put the D-link back on with just a single WAN connection.

I tried updating the firmware to the latest, did not help. Connection never goes down when the dongles are connected direct to the laptops or to the D-link. So my conclusion is Cradle point is not stable. When I go to admin panel it shows as the link is active, however I either have to disconnect and reconnect, reboot the router or pull the dongle out and plug it back in. I do not recommend this, I highly recommend D-link DIR-450 (only drawback is it only supports one WAN line).
