3.3 Common Problems
This section contains a list of some of the most common issues faced by users of the CBA750.
Please visit CradlePoint Knowledgebase at http://knowledgebase.cradlepoint.com/ for more help and answers to your
other questions.
3.3.1 Your USB Modem or Phone Does Not Work With the Router
If your USB data modem or phone is not working with the router, check the list of supported devices to ensure you
are using a supported device and carrier. The device you‟re using must be supported on the carrier network
providing your cellular service or it‟s considered an unsupported device, even if it is supported on another carrier‟s
network.
CradlePoint‟s supported device list changes regularly. We update our supported device list after a device is
certified and approved. If the device you have is NOT on the list, that means we do not support it at this time.
The SUPPORTED DEVICE list can be found at: cradlepoint.com/support/CBA750
Sometimes a USB data modem needs to be updated or have other configurations set correctly in order to make a
connection through the router. If your USB Modem has not been updated recently, it is recommended that you do
so if it is having trouble connecting to the CBA750. Simply insert your USB data modem into your PC and using the
software provided by your cellular carrier, access the Internet. Follow the directions provided to complete the
update. Once you have updated your USB data modem, reconnect the cellular device to your CradlePoint router
and connect to the Internet.
If you are using 4G modem you need to set the WiMAX Realm. This can be done at the administrative page (login
to IP address http://192.168.0.1) and go to Modem → Settings. Under Modem Specific Settings use the WiMAX
Realm Select to select your carrier. Make sure you Save Settings.
Some wireless carriers provide multiple Access Point Names that a modem can connect to. If you wish to specify
an APN, this can be done at the administrative page (login to IP address http://192.168.0.1) and go to Modem →
Settings. Enter the APN and Save Settings. Some examples of APN are isp.cingular, ecp.tmobile.com and
vpn.com. This APN will be set in the first profile position (see Modem Diagnostics). The modem must be

removed and reinserted for this change to take affect (or the router rebooted). This APN is associated with the
modem in the interface referred to in the Modem Interface dropdown menu, so multiple APNs may be entered.
If the above issues have been resolved and you can connect to the router but not get Internet through it using your
modem you may need to upgrade the router firmware. Use your computer (you may need to plug your modem
directly into your computer if you don‟t have another way to access the internet) to download the latest firmware for
the router (found at: www.cradlepoint.com/support/CBA750). Then login to the router admin page and manually
upload the firmware (directions can be found in this manual in section 6.2.2).
If you are still unable to access the Internet after following the above directions, contact CradlePoint Technical
Support for further assistance.

3.3.2 You are Connected to the Router but Cannot Connect to the Internet
The status LEDs of your router will give you an indication whether or not a proper connection is being made. See the LED
STATUS definitions below:
If the USB Data Modem LEDs are not illuminated, your modem is not connected and online. You may need to update
firmware. Refer to “Your USB Modem or Phone Does Not Work With The Router.”
If you are still not online after updating, call CradlePoint Technical Support for further assistance.

4.2 IP Pass-Thru
IP Passthru allows a client connected to the private network to be
configured automatically with the public IP address acquired from the
ISP. The configuration is done by passing the client a DHCP lease
with the public IP address when the WAN becomes connected. If
there is more than one client connected to the private LAN, the user
can bind the MAC address of a particular client to IP Passthru in
order to ensure that client always receives the correct DHCP lease.
Otherwise, the IP Passthru will pick the first device connected to the
LAN to use IP Passthru.
4.2.1 IP Passthru Mode
IP Passthru Mode. Selecting Bind MAC Automatically will allow IP
Passthru to automatically try to setup the client's connection to the
Internet. This setting is the default setting, and should work in most
cases. However, if there is more than one client connected to the
private network, then selecting Bind MAC Manually will configure
the router to only allow one particular client.
Client MAC Address. If you would like IP Passthru to be restricted to
a particular client, enable this option and enter the client‟s MAC
address into the association field. The router will grab the MAC
address of the client connected to it during configuration. If this isn't
the right address, enter the MAC of the correct device.
Ignore Switch Position. The CBA750 has a Configuration Switch on the outside of the router that can be set to Passthru
Mode or Configuration Mode. Selecting Ignore Switch Position disables this switch so that you control this setting
through the administration pages only. If you select Ignore Switch Position, you must then also choose either:
Force Passthru Mode
Force Configuration Mode

IP Passthru Subnet Mode. The subnet mask determines the number of available IP addresses. Your router can
automatically create this value, or you can assign a value for your specific needs.
Automatically create subnet mask. Allow the router to set the subnet mask value.
Assign /31 subnet mask (RFC-3201). This setting maximizes address space when only two hosts are connected
by a point-to-point link.
Custom subnet mask and gateway. You can manually assign your own values for the Subnet Mask and
Gateway Address.

4.3 DHCP (DHCP Settings)
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP
section is where you configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP
addresses to the computers and other devices on your local area network
(LAN).
Use the DHCP section to configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP
addresses to the computers and other devices on the local area network.
4.3.1 DHCP Server Settings
Enable DHCP Server. (Default: Enabled). Once your CBA750 router is
properly configured and this option is enabled, the DHCP Server will
manage the IP addresses and other network configuration information for
computers and other devices connected to your Local Area Network.
There is no need for you to do this yourself.
The computers (and other devices) connected to your LAN also need to
have their TCP/IP configuration set to "DHCP" or "Obtain an IP address
automatically".
When you set Enable DHCP Server, the following options are displayed.
DHCP IP Address Range. (Default: 192.168.0.100-192.168.0.199). This
option defines the range of addresses available for the CBA750 to assign
to an internal network. If there are any devices using static IP addresses,
you must be sure the addresses do not fall within the range defined here.
A Static IP address is one that is entered in manually on the device.
Example: The CBA750 uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1. A computer
designated as a Web server has a static IP address of 192.168.0.3.
Another computer is designated as an FTP server with a static IP address

CRADLEPOINT CBA750 | USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 1.9.0
of 192.168.0.4. The starting IP address for the DHCP server needs to be 192.168.0.5 or above.
DHCP Lease Time. (Default: 1440 minutes [24 hours]). The amount of time a computer may have an IP address before it
is required to renew the lease. The initial lease designates the amount of time before the lease expires. If the lease
expires and the address is no longer needed, then another tenant may use the address. Units are in minutes, however a
value of zero (0) means the lease never expires.
Always Broadcast. If all the computers on the LAN successfully obtain their IP addresses from the router‟s DHCP server,
this option can remain disabled. However, if one of the computers on the LAN fails to obtain an IP address, it may have an
old DHCP client that incorrectly turns off the broadcast flag of DHCP packets. Enabling Always Broadcast will cause the
router to always broadcast its responses to all clients, thereby working around the problem (at the cost of increased
broadcast traffic on the LAN).
NetBIOS Announcement. Check this box to allow the DHCP
Server to offer NetBIOS configuration settings to the LAN
hosts. NetBIOS allows LAN hosts to discover all other
computers within the network, e.g. within “Network
Neighborhood.”
Learn BIOS from WAN. If NetBIOS advertisement is
switched on, WINS information will be learned from the WAN
side, if available. Turn this setting off to configure manually.
NetBIOS Scope. This is an advanced setting and is normally
left blank. This allows the configuration of a NetBIOS
“domain” name under which network hosts operate. This
setting has no effect if the Learn NetBIOS information from
WAN is activated.
NetBIOS Node Type. Indicates how network hosts are to
perform NetBIOS name registration and discovery. This
setting has no effect if the Learn
NetBIOS information from WAN is activated.

Broadcast only. This setting is useful where there are no WINS servers available, however, it is preferred you
try Mixed-Mode operation first.
Point-to-Point Mode. This setting indicates to use WINS servers ONLY. This setting is useful to force all
NetBIOS operation to the configured WINS servers. You must have configured at least the primary WINS server
IP to point to a working WINS server.
Mixed-Mode (default). First broadcast operation is performed to register hosts and discover other hosts, if
broadcast operation fails, WINS servers are tried, if any. This mode favors broadcast operation which may be
preferred if WINS servers are reachable by a slow network link and the majority of network services such as
servers and printers are local to the LAN.
Hybrid-State. First WINS servers are tried, if any, followed by local network broadcast. This is generally the
preferred mode if you have configured WINS servers.
Primary WINS IP Address. Configure the IP address of the preferred WINS server. WINS Servers store information
regarding network hosts, allowing hosts to „register‟ themselves as well as discover other available hosts, e.g. for use in
“Network Neighborhood.” This setting has no effect if the Learn NetBIOS information from WAN is activated.
Secondary WINS IP Address. Configure the IP address of the backup WINS server, if any. This setting has no effect if
the Learn NetBIOS information from WAN is activated.
4.3.2 Number of Dynamic DHCP Clients.
This section displays what devices are currently leasing IP
addresses. The DHCP Client table displays the number of
clients that are receiving an IP address from the router, the
computer name, MAC address, and IP address assigned to
each computer. You can use the Revoke IP address option to take away a leased IP address from a client. This feature
is useful for freeing up addresses when the client table is full or nearly full.
4.3.3 Add DHCP Reservation
Clients configured as DHCP can receive the same IP address
all the time using this feature. This is almost the same as if a
device has a static IP address except that it must still actually

request an IP address from the CBA750. The CBA750 will provide the device the same IP address all the time. Servers
on the network should either use a static IP address or this option.
Enable. Specifies whether the entry will be active or inactive.
Computer Name. You can assign a name for each computer that is given a reserved IP address. This may help you keep
track of which computers are assigned this way. Example: Game Server.
IP Address. The LAN address that you want to reserve.
MAC Address. To input the MAC address of your system, enter it manually or connect to the router‟s Web-Management
interface from the system and click the Copy Your PC’s MAC Address button.
A MAC address is usually located on a sticker on the bottom of a network device. The MAC address is comprised of
twelve digits. Each pair of hexadecimal digits are usually separated by dashes or colons such as 00-0D-88-11-22-33 or
00:0D:88:11:22:33. If your network device is a computer and the network card is already located inside the computer, you
can connect to the router from the computer and click the Copy Your PC’s MAC Address button to enter the MAC
address.

As an alternative, you can locate a MAC address in a
specific operating system by following the steps
below:
Windows 98/Windows Me. Go to the
computer‟s Start menu, select Run, type in
winipcfg, and hit Enter. A popup window will
be displayed. Select the appropriate adapter
from the pull-down menu and you will see the
Adapter Address. This is the MAC address of
the device.
Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows 7. Go to the computer‟s Start menu, select Programs, select Accessories,
and select Command Prompt. At the command prompt, type in ipconfig /all and hit Enter. The physical address
displayed for the adapter connecting to the router is the MAC address.
Mac OS X. Go to the computer‟s Apple Menu, select System Preferences, select Network, and select the
Ethernet Adapter connecting to the router. Select the Ethernet button and the Ethernet ID will be listed. This is
the same as the MAC.
Save/Update. Record the changes you have made.
Clear. Re-initialize this area of the screen, discarding any changes you have made.
When you are done editing the settings, you must click the Save Settings button at the top of the page to make the
changes effective and permanent.
Example: A DHCP reservation is used for making sure the router always gives a computer or device the same IP address.
Let‟s say you have a Wi-Fi printer that you want to access via the Internet. You can connect to the CradlePoint Router
from the Wi-Fi printer designated in this section.
1. Enter a designated IP address somewhere between the Starting IP and Ending IP addresses.
2. Click the Copy Your PC’s MAC Address button and the CBA750 will detect the MAC address of the device and
enter it automatically.
3. The printer name can be entered in for reference but is not required.
4. Click the Save Settings button at the top of the page.

The IP address will now only be assigned to the designated Wi-Fi printer and it will always receive the same IP address
as long as it uses the same wireless adapter.
Default: No static DHCP clients.
NOTE: If you replace the wireless adapter in a computer that is using Static DHCP, you will need to click the Copy the
PC‟s MAC Address button again because every wireless adapter has a unique MAC address. The same goes for any
network device. If you replace a network device such as a print server, you will need to input the MAC address of the new
print server into the Static DHCP configuration.

4.4 Network
Use the Basic Network sub-menu to establish
the local IP address for the router. These are
the settings of the LAN (Local Area Network)
interface for the router. The router‟s local
network (LAN) settings are configured based on
the IP Address and Subnet Mask assigned in
this sub-menu. The IP address is also used to
access this Web-based management Interface.
It is recommended that you use the default
settings if you do not have an existing network.
4.4.1 Router Settings.
Router IP Address. The IP address of your
router on the local area network. Your local
area network settings are based on the address
assigned here. For example, 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask. The subnet mask of your router
on the local area network.
Local Domain Name. This entry is optional.
Enter a domain name for the local network.
LAN computers will assume this domain name
when they get an address from the router‟s built
in DHCP server. So, for example, if you enter mynetwork.net here, and you have a LAN side laptop with a name of
chris, that laptop will be known as chris.mynetwork.net. NOTE: the entered domain name can be overridden by the one
obtained from the router‟s upstream DHCP server.
Enable DNS Relay. When DNS Relay is enabled, the router plays the role of a DNS server. DNS requests sent to the
router are forwarded to the ISP‟s DNS server. This provides a constant DNS address that LAN computers can use, even

when the router obtains a different DNS server address from the ISP upon re-establishing the WAN connection. You
should disable DNS relay if you implement a LAN-
side DNS server as a virtual server.
4.4.2 RIP (Router Information Protocol).
RIP is used to broadcast routing information among
routers.
Enable RIP. Enable RIP if required by the ISP, if the
LAN has multiple routers, or if the LAN has auto-IP
devices. NOTE: When you select the Enable RIP
check box, these additional features appear:
RIP Operating Mode. The CBA750 router supports
both version 2 and version 1 of the RIP
specification.
V1. Use if none of the routers supports Version 2.
V2 Broadcast. Use if some routers are capable of Version 2, but some are only capable of Version 1.
V2 Multicast. Use if this is the only router on the LAN or if all the routers support Version 2.
Router Metric. The additional cost of routing a packet through this router. The normal value for a simple network is 1.
This metric is added to routes learned from other routers; it is not added to static or system routes.
Act as Default Router. Make this router the preferred destination for packets that are not otherwise destined.
Accept WAN Updates. For security, disable this option unless required by the ISP.
RIP Password. RIP Version 2 supports the use of a password to limit access to routers through the RIP protocol. If the
ISP or other LAN router requires a RIP password, enter the password here.

5.1 Info
This page displays information about any attached modems.
The amount of information displayed depends on the
particular modem, but generally about a dozen to two dozen
values are displayed. To understand what particular values
such as "Home Address" or "Network Access Identifier"
mean, please review information provided by your carrier. Of
particular interest are the “Signal Strength” readings: these
let you know the quality of the attached modem connection to
your carrier. You may be able to move the location of the
router or modem to increase your signal strength. Please
note that if any of the values are displayed in red, you will
need to correct the condition before you can access the
WAN link across that phone/modem.
If your phone/modem does not support reading diagnostics
such as signal strength while it is connected to the carrier's
network, a "Refresh" button will show up on the page. If you
press this button, any current data connection will be
terminated, new readings will be presented, and a new data
connection will be made. This is equivalent to pressing the
router's external Signal Strength (SGNL) button. Again, note
that the data connection will be lost and any attached
devices will be momentarily interrupted if they are accessing
the WAN using the phone/modem.

5.2 Failover
The CBA750 can establish an uplink via any modems plugged into the USB or ExpressCard ports. Although all of these
devices may be plugged in, only one of them may establish a link at a time. If the WAN connection fails the router will
automatically attempt to bring up a new link on another device. This feature is called failover. You can also manually
disconnect and re-connect specific ports using icons in the Control column. The priority table can be saved permanently
via the Save button. Priority changes take effect immediately even if they are not saved.
5.2.1 WAN Interfaces
This section allows you to:
Change the failover order of devices
(aka interfaces)
Monitor their status
Take the active link down
Bring a link up on another device
The device at the top of the list has the highest
priority. This is the device that the router will
attempt to start when it boots up. If the link
cannot be brought up on this device, or if it fails
after boot-up, the router will attempt to bring the
link up on the next available device. Whenever a
link fails on a device, the router will always move
down to the next device down in the list, and wrap around again to the top.
Slot. The slot is the physical port the modem is plugged into.
Device. This shows a description of the device.
Status. This is the link status of a device, which is one of the following:
Ready. This means the device is plugged in an available but not active.
Establishing. This means the router is attempting to bring up the link over the device.

Signal Strength Mode (Established). This means the link is up and running on the device and the signal
strength is shown.
Suspended. This means the router will not attempt to bring up the link over the device until a timer expires.
This only applies to modems, which must conform to carrier specifications about how often they may attempt to
connect to the network. The timeout depends on how many previous connection attempts have failed in a row.
Control. The device that has an active link will show a circle-and-slash icon. If you click on this icon the router will bring
the link down. The router will not automatically fail over in this case. If you bring the link down, the modem will remain
disconnected until you use the control to enable it again. The router will not attempt to automatically connect to a modem
that has been manually disconnected.
All other available devices will have a check mark icon. If you click on this icon the router will attempt to bring the link up
over this device. If necessary, it will first bring the active link down. Failover will proceed to the next device down on the
list.
Priority. Click on the red arrow icons to change the priority of a modem.

5.3.2 Global Reset Settings
This section allows you to change the reset
settings for any modem plugged into the router.
Aggressive Modem Reset. (Default: Selected.)
Some modems tend to become unresponsive or
unable to maintain a connection for a long period
of time. This setting uses more aggressive
techniques to get the modem to reset and
reconnect. When enabled, a hard reset will occur
on the appropriate USB/ExpressCard port in the following cases:
1. Single Mode (3G or 4G) modem is unplugged / removed.
2. USB modem has an error.
3. Modem loses communication as per Verify Connection method (below).
4. Connection attempts fail.
Verify Connection. (Default: Disconnected.) This setting causes the router to periodically verify that the modem
connection to the Internet is still active. Due to the nature of cellular networks, there are times the modem will report it is
still active but data will not be able to flow across the connection. This setting enables the router to detect this condition
(either actively or passively) and restart the connection if there is a problem.
Idle Timeout. (Default: 60 seconds.) This is how often the router will check to see if the modem connection is still
active. It does this by seeing if any new data was received over the connection during the period of time you set.
If any data was received since the last check, the timeout is restarted. If no data is received during this time period
and the Verification Mode IS:
Passive DNS. The router will take no action until data is detected that is destined for the WAN. When this
data is detected, the data will be sent and the router will check for received data for 2 seconds. If no data is
received, a DNS request will be sent to the DNS servers. This DNS request will be retried 4 times at 5-
second intervals. (The first 2 requests will be directed at the Primary DNS server and the second 2 requests
will be directed at the Secondary DNS server.) If still no data is received, the modem will be disconnected
and failover will occur.

6.2 Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server
(Web, FTP, etc.) using a domain name that you have
dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband
Internet Service Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP
addresses. When you use a Dynamic DNS service
provider, your friends can enter your host name to
connect to your server, no matter what your IP address is.
Enable Dynamic DNS. Enable this option only if you
have purchased your own domain name and registered
with a dynamic DNS service provider. The following
parameters are displayed when the option is enabled.
Server Address. Select a dynamic DNS service provider
from the dropdown list, or select Custom Server and enter
your own server address.
Custom Server Name. Only available if you select
Custom Server from the Server Address drop down. Enter
details. Example: myserver.mydomain.net.
Host Name. Enter your host name, fully qualified; for example: myhost.mydomain.net.
Username or Key. Enter the username provided by your service provider. If the Dynamic DNS provider supplies only a
key, enter that key in all three fields.
Password or Key. Enter the password (or key) provided by your service provider.
Verify Password or Key. Re-type the password (or key) provided by your service provider.

Advanced
Timeout. The time between periodic updates to the Dynamic DNS if your dynamic IP address has not changed. The
timeout period is entered in hours.
External IP. The external IP field is used to map the Dynamic DNS entry to an IP address that isn‟t the CBA750. For
example, if you have an account for “mydomain.dyndns.org”, and you wanted that DNS name to resolve to “1.2.3.4”, you
could use this field to force that. If the field is equal to 0.0.0.0, then the CBA750 will tell the Dynamic DNS server to map
the DNS name to the CBA750‟s WAN IP address.
Note: If a dynamic DNS update fails for any reason (for example, when incorrect parameters are entered), the router
automatically disables the Dynamic DNS feature and records the failure in the log.

6.3.4 Firmware Upgrade Notification Options
Automatically Check Online for Latest Firmware Version. When this
option is enabled, your router will check online periodically to see if
there is a newer version of firmware available. When new firmware is available, you will see an additional button that
initiates a one button update. Simply click the button to download and update the router in one click.
6.3.5 Firmware Update Notes
When a new firmware update file is loaded into the router, the following checks are made to insure that the new file is
correct.
1. Before the new firmware update is loaded into its permanent location (the NVRAM), it is first downloaded into a
temporary (RAM) area for checking.
2. The downloaded file is first checked against a checksum to insure that the entire file has been downloaded and no
data errors have occurred.
3. Each firmware file is encoded with a special product identification, which must match the current code in the router.
If the two identifiers match the update is allowed to proceed. If either of these checks fail, the firmware update file is
rejected and a failure message given to the user.
4. After the new firmware file passes both of these checks, the code is written to the permanent location (NVRAM).
Power to the unit must be maintained during this critical step; do not turn off unit. As the router writes the new code
into the permanent location (NVRAM), the user is presented with a screen on the browser which counts down for
60 seconds. After the 60-second countdown, the unit automatically reboots and reinitializes.
