NEED HELP WITH 4G SETUP VIA CRADLEPOINT ROUTER

FD5 · RV-Dreams Family Member

If you have the Verizon Pantech UML290 4G aircard it will not work. Cadlepoint is working on a router that will support the 4G aircard. I talked with them today and they said it would be Jan/Feb before it is released. They will email me when it is available.

Well ain't that special! My 1000 is just 2 months old and obsolete. When I called Verizon they told me Cradlepoint was two yr down the rd. LOL I really don't think they know what it is, The sales rep in the store didn't and their own equiptment is run through a cradlepoint router. They told me when I went into the store.

I hope it is not a new router and just new firmware for their current routers. If they are going to make us get a new router I will look strongly at WiFiRanger.

According to there website the WiFiRanger will not work with the Verizon Pantech UML290 4G aircard.

I called Cradlepoint and not Verizon. The Verizon sales rep said it would work, Cradlepoint rep said they are misinformed.

Anyone have Cable or DSL and a WiFiRanger? Here is how to get a new USB modem (aircard) supported:
---
If your USB modem or aircard is not in WiFiRanger’s supported list,

you can make $25 by helping us get it supported. Connectyour WiFiRanger to a Cable or DSL modem with your USB modem plugged in, then request a time to work on the WiFiRangerwith our support engineers. We’ll need

3-5 days lead time to plan ahead. The Support Engineer will need an hour or so to dosome remote diagnostics on your WiFiRanger and learn how to “talk” to your USB modem. After that, we’ll add your USBmodem to our supported list and credit you $25 back to your credit card or PayPal account for the hassle. Email us at

questions@wifiranger.com

to set up an appointment.

Cradlepoint engineers are currently working on a firmware update to support the new 3G/4G devices through Verizon. We do not know what devices will be officially supported at this time but on the models that get the firmware update, it'll be a matter of downloading and updating to new firmware that adds the support.
