CradlePoint CTR500 Review

I was able to get the CradlePoint CTR500 up and running in about 10 minutes.  This included upgrading the firmware to the latest release.  I am very impressed with the performance and expansive settings on the router.  It supports several configurations and the web interface was very easy to use.

This is a definite keeper for anyone needing shared WiFi access via Verizon, Sprint & Att mobile data cards.

CradlePoint CTR500

I have a Verizon UM175 USB wireless card I have been using for a few years.  I really like it and get great speed from it.

I just purchased a CradlePoint CTR500 wireless access point that allows you to connect the USB device to it and share the connection.  It also allows you to connect to a wired network and setup a wireless network.

I am often working in an area with a few people and we all need internet access and the local network does not have it.  Or simply need to share a single network port across a few workstations.  Either way this seems like a great device for these situations.  I will update you on how it works for me.
