Updating firmware ensures your IBR600 is ready for today and tomorrow’s technology.To Update Your Firmware, Follow The Steps Below:Mounting BracketACTIVATE YOUR MODEMA wireless  broadband data plan must  be  added to  your  IBR600. Wireless broadband data  plans  are  available from wireless carriers such as Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, and Clearwire. Mobile broadband, M2M, and Router pricing  plans are available. To add or  transfer a line  of service you will need to provide a unique identifier such as ESN for 3G EVDO modems or IMEI/MEID for LTE or HSPA+ modems. LTE and HSPA+ plans require a SIM. SIM provisioning for LTE and HSPA+ models is done the same way as for USB modems. Once provisioned insert the SIM into the router until it clicks into place, close the SIM door, and turn on the power switch. After adding a data plan to the Verizon 3G EVDO model the modem may need to be activated. Log in to the IBR600 administration pages (see below) and select Internet from the top navigation bar and then Connection Manager from the dropdown menu. Find and select the CradlePoint “EVDO Modem” and click Control and then click Activate. When modem activation is complete, confirm the modem LED is solid green on the router.
