 CradlePoint MBR1000 works great with Aircard 595U November 14, 2008
I bought the CradlePoint MBR1000 5 months ago to provide WiFi access for my Sierra Wireless 595U with Sprint as my ISP. I simply love love love this router. It offers all the functionality that you would expect from a high end router, much ore than a standard Tomato firmware upgrade, including customizing transmit power, virtual server configuration, even an OpenDNS content filtering option. Best of all it's dead easy to use and operate. Check the CradlePoint website and make sure it supports your wireless card, and if it does all you should need to do is plug and play. I set up a WPA2 network with all the trimmings in less than 10 minutes. The GUI is also very slick, intuitive, easy to use, and includes extensive explanations for every option and an excellent help section. I haven't had a single problem with this router, which for wireless routers is the highest recommendation anyone can give. Even the price is understandable considering all the time you save by owning a router that doesn't suck.
 Very Poor Support November 12, 2008
The 1000 works wonderful. Easy to use. Mine stopped working using 2 different laptops. Direct connecting great. After 4 days and 2 phone calls. Support doesn't much have an idea. Tried both laptops at another 1000 router. Works perfect. Support just acts like they don't care to even try.
If it works its wonderful.
MBR1000 November 4, 2008
With one Sprint broadband card and the Cradlepoint MBR1000 I had two computers running, with internet access, in short order. You can split the connection with as many computers as you want. The setup and instructions are simple and clear. It's a great tool.
Cradlepoint Router November 3, 2008
Am very pleased with the operation of the router. I had an initial problem connecting but talked to an IT person who was courteous and helpful. The IT was in Utah and spoke English rather than being in Bangaladesh and speaking Hindu. A refreshing surprise!
works - be sure to upgrade the firmware October 16, 2008
The Sierra Wireless 880E is listed as a supported ExpressCard modem on the Cradlepoint website... and sure enough it works with little configuration effort. (By contrast, a fairly generic USB GSM modem that is not listed on Cradlepoint's website failed to work.)
A tip for T-Mobile users (or anyone else using a network that is not on the drop-down list of carriers): be sure to upgrade to firmware 1.3.1 as this has an easy "access point name" (APN) option under Advanced->Modem Settings. That's a lot easier than fiddling with dial scripts. (In the case of the T-Mobile data card plan you will likely set it to internet3.voicestream.com.) That's basically all the configuration I needed on the WWAN side.
