CRADLEPOINT MBR1400 USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.4.1

6.7 WiFi / Local Networks

This section is used to configure the settings for wireless networks created by your router. Note that changes made in this section may also need to be duplicated on wireless devices that you want to connect to your wireless network.

For example, if you change a LAN‘s IP address, devices within that network will lose connection. They will have to reconnect to the network.

Firmware 3.3.0 introduced significant changes to the WiFi / Local Networks page, creating much more flexibility and control for the user. The MBR1400 now includes these options:

∙VLAN (virtual LAN)

∙As many as four WiFi networks (SSIDs)

∙NAT-less routing

The user can now set up multiple networks, each with its own unique configuration and its own selection of interfaces. Each local network can be attached to any of the following types of interfaces:

∙WiFi

∙Ethernet

∙VLAN

For example, one network might be just an isolated WiFi hotspot for guests, while another might be the main network with administrative access, two Ethernet ports, a password-protected WiFi SSID, and a VLAN interface.
