QUICK START
BASIC SETUP
1. Insert an activated SIM
A wireless broadband data plan must be added to your Cradlepoint IBR600B/IBR650B. Wireless broadband data
plans are available from wireless carriers such as Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, EE, and Vodafone. The SIM must be
provisioned with the carrier. Contact your carrier for details about selecting a data plan and about the process
for provisioning your SIM.
click into place.
2. Attach the WiFi and modem antennas
Attach the two WiFi antennas and two modem antennas to the connectors. Antennas are jointed, which enables
you to position them for optimal signal. To attach, hold the antenna straight and twist the base of the antenna
to connect, folding the joint if needed. NOTE: Ensure that the router antennas are not near metal or other RF
reflective surfaces.
3. Connect the power source
Plug the provided power supply into an electrical outlet. Then connect the power supply to the router.
4. Ensure power is switched on
Close SIM door, and secure with included screw if desired.
NOTE: SIM door functions as power switch. Router will not power on unless SIM door is closed.
5. Connect to a computer or other network equipment
For the IBR650B, simply connect your device(s) to the LAN port via
Ethernet.
1. On a WiFi-enabled computer or device, open the window or
dropdown menu that allows you to access wireless networks.
The IBR600B network will appear on the list: select this network.
2. Log in. You will need to input the Default Password when
prompted. The Default Password is provided on the product label
found on the bottom of your router (this password is the last
eight digits of the router’s MAC address, which can be found on
the product box or on the product label).
NOTE: If more than one IBR600B wireless router is visible, you can find
the correct unit by checking for its SSID (service set identifier; the
unique name of the local network). The default SSID of the primary
network has the form IBR600B-xxx, where “xxx” is the last 3 digits of
the router’s MAC address.
NOTE: The product label above is an example only: your DEFAULT PASSWORD and SSID will be unique.

CONNECTION MANAGER
The router can establish an uplink via Ethernet, WiFi as WAN, or 3G/4G modems (removable or external USB). If the
primary WAN connection fails, the router will automatically attempt to bring up a new link on another device: this
feature is called failover. If Load Balance is enabled, multiple WAN devices may establish a link concurrently.
This is a list of the available interfaces used to access the Internet. You can enable, stop, or start devices from this
section. Drag the priority icon ( ) up or down to set the interface the router uses by default and the order that it
allows failover.

Note that the current connected interface(s) is/are indicated by a green connection state. For interfaces on Standby,
the interface is indicated by a yellow connection state. If the interface is indicated in red, the interface is not currently

LOAD BALANCE
To enable Load Balancing, select the check box for each desired device. If this is enabled, the router will use multiple
WAN interfaces to increase the data transfer throughput by using any connected WAN interface consecutively.
Selecting Load Balance will automatically start the WAN interface and add it to the pool of WAN interfaces to use
browsing session.
From WAN Management, select the Load Balance Algorithm from the following dropdown options:
• Round-Robin: Evenly distribute each session to the available
WAN connections.
• Rate: Distribute load based on the current upload and
download rates. A WAN device’s upload and download
bandwidth values can be set in Internet > Connection
Manager.
• Spillover: This was the default algorithm in older (version
available bandwidth. The estimated bandwidth rate is based
values and the observed capabilities of the device.
• Data Usage: This mode works in concert with the Data Usage feature (Internet > Data Usage).
cap in the data usage rule for each interface, rather than distributing sessions based solely on bandwidth. For proper
functioning you need to create data usage rules for each WAN device you will be load balancing. Make certain to select
the “Use with Load Balancing” checkbox in the data usage rule editor.
ON DEMAND
Typically, modem connections are not always on.
When the On Demand mode is selected a connection
to the Internet is made as needed. When On
Demand is not selected a connection to the Internet
is always maintained.
WAN VERIFY
If this is enabled, the router will check that the highest priority active WAN interface can get to the Internet even if
the WAN connection is not actively being used. If the interface goes down, the router will switch to the next highest
priority interface available. If this is not selected, the router will still failover to the next highest priority interface but
only after the user has attempted to get out to the Internet and failed.
Idle Check Interval: The amount of time between each check. (Default: 30 seconds. Range: 10-3600 seconds.)
Monitor while connected
• Passive DNS (modem only): 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 two seconds. If no
data is received the router behaves as described below under Active DNS.

FAILBACK
connection to its network.
Select the Failback Mode from the following
options:
• Usage
• Time
• Disabled
Usage Threshold: Fail back based on the amount
of data passed over time. This is a good setting for
when you have a dual-mode EVDO/WiMAX modem
and you are going in and out of WiMAX coverage. If
the router has failed over to EVDO it will wait until
you have low data usage before bringing down the EVDO connection to check if a WiMAX connection can be made.
• High (Rate: 80 KB/s. Time Period: 30 seconds.)
• Normal (Rate: 20 KB/s. Time Period: 90 seconds.)
• Low (Rate: 10 KB/s. Time Period: 240 seconds.)
• Custom (Rate range: 1-100 KB/s. Time Period range: 10-300 seconds.)
Time: Fail back only after a set period of time. (Default: 90 seconds. Range: 10-300 seconds.) This is a good setting if
you have a primary wired WAN connection and only use a modem for failover when your wired connection goes down.
This ensures that the higher priority interface has remained online for a set period of time before it becomes active
(in case the connection is dropping in and out, for example).
Disabled: Deactivate failback mode.
Immediate Mode: Fail back immediately whenever a higher priority interface is plugged in or when there is a priority
change. Immediate failback returns you to the use of your preferred Internet source more quickly which may have
advantages such as reducing the cost of a failover data plan, but it may cause more interruptions in your network
than Usage or Time modes.
• Active DNS (modem only): A DNS request will be
sent to the DNS servers. If no data is received, the
directed at the Primary DNS server and the second
two requests will be directed at the Secondary
DNS server.) If still no data is received, the device
will be disconnected and failover will occur.
• Active Ping: A ping request will be sent to the
Ping Target. If no data is received, the ping request
If still no data is received, the device will be
disconnected and failover will occur. When “Active Ping” is selected, the next line gives an estimate of data usage
in this form: “Active Ping could use as much as 9.3 MB of data per month.” This amount depends on the Idle
Check Interval.
• O: Once the link is established the router takes no action to verify that it is still up.

DATA USAGE
Data UsageMonitor Monthly (or Weekly or Daily)
Usage to begin tracking this information. This data is not retained between router reboots.
For Monthly and Weekly you are able to specify the day to
start each cycle (e.g. the 1st or Tuesday, respectively).
Usage Cap: Enter a Cap amount in Megabytes. 1024
Megabyte is equal to 1 Gigabyte.
Use with Load Balancing: When checked, the Load
Balancing feature is allowed to use the thresholds and
metrics of this rule when making balance decisions. This
causes Load Balancing to spread the data usage between
interfaces according to the assigned usage rather than
these rules at a similar percentage utilization of data (e.g.
10%, 50%, 90%) as the cycle progresses, rather than quickly
using 100% of a fast 1GB capped interface while using only
a fraction of a slow 10GB capped interface, thus leaving
the rest of the cycle with only the slow interface. The Data
Shutdown on Cap: When checked, the WAN device will shutdown when the assigned usage is reached. A cycle reset or
a rule deletion will re-enable the device.

• “WPA2” (Personal or Enterprise) forces AES as the WPA Cipher.
• “WPA/WPA2” and “WPA” (Personal or Enterprise) allow AES, TKIP/AES, and TKIP.
• “WEP Auto” requires a WEP Key.
• “Open” has no password or other security measures.
NOTE: If you don’t know whether you should choose Personal or Enterprise, assume Personal since you need to
know RADIUS authentication for Enterprise.
In order to protect your network from hackers and unauthorized users, Cradlepoint highly recommends WPA2/
AES for security if your attached devices can support it. WEP and WPA/TKIP are obsolete and have been
replaced by WPA/AES. Using those security settings will cause the WiFi to limit to 802.11g modes.

Channel Selection Method: This controls how a WiFi
channel is selected.
• User Selection – Manually set the channel
• Random Selection – The router randomly sets the
channel
• Smart Selection (Default) – Scans to determine the
lowest interference WiFi channel
Channel Selection Schedule: When using the “Smart”
channel selection, this controls whether the router
will periodically rescan for a better channel and
change to it. Select from “Once,” “Daily,” “Weekly,” or
“Monthly.” Note that there may be a momentary WiFi
disconnection while the channel changes.
Channel: (Shows if User Selection is selected.) The WiFi
channel* corresponds to a frequency the router uses to
communicate with other devices. For 2.4 GHz, the range
is 1 to 11, and 1, 6, and 11 do not overlap each other.
Select a channel from the dropdown list:

Client Timeout: If the access point is not able to communicate with the client it will disconnect it after this
timeout (in seconds).
TX Power: Normally the wireless transmitter operates at 100% power. In some circumstances, however, there
RTS Threshold: When an excessive number of wireless packet collisions are occurring, wireless performance
can be improved by using the RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send) handshake protocol. The wireless
transmitter will begin to send RTS frames (and wait for CTS) when data frame size in bytes is greater than the
RTS Threshold. This setting should remain at its default value.
Fragmentation Threshold: Wireless frames can be divided into smaller units (fragments) to improve
performance in the presence of RF interference and at the limits of RF coverage. Fragmentation will occur
when frame size in bytes is greater than the Fragmentation Threshold. This setting should remain at its default
value. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance.
DTIM: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast
sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the
broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255.
Beacon: Beacons are packets sent by a wireless router to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon
Period value between 20 and 1000 milliseconds.
WPS: WiFi Protected Setup is a method for easy and secure establishment of a wireless network. It can be
used instead of passwords when connecting clients that support WPS. To initiate WPS, either press the WPS
button on the product (if it has one) or use the Connect button in the Getting Started / WiFi Protected Setup
menu.
Short Slot: Slot Time is the period wireless clients use in determining if the channel is free for transmission.
Enabling this value allows clients that can utilize a shorter time to do so. Disabling this option forces all
transmission collisions.

Channel Width: Selects whether the router uses a single 20 MHz channel to send/receive, or uses two adjacent
20 MHz channels to create a 40 MHz channel. Higher performance is possible with the 40 MHz channel.
Selecting Auto is generally best. Enabling WiFi as WAN will force 20 MHz only mode.

Cradlepoint VPN tunnels use IPsec (Internet Protocol security) to authenticate and encrypt packets exchanged
across the tunnels. To set up a VPN tunnel with a Cradlepoint router on one end, there must be another device
(usually a router) that also supports IPsec on the other end.
IKE (Internet Key Exchange) is the security protocol in IPsec. IKE has two phases, phase 1 and phase 2. The

Add/Edit Tunnel – IKE Phase 1
To set up a tunnel with a remote site, you need to match your tunnel’s IKE negotiation parameters with the
remote site. By selecting several encryption, hash, and DH group options, you improve your chances for a
successful tunnel negotiation. For greatest compatibility, select all options; for greatest security, select only
the most secure options that your devices support.
Exchange Mode: The IKE protocol has two modes of negotiating phase 1 – Main (also called Identity Protection)
and Aggressive.
©2017 Cradlepoint. All Rights Reserved. | +1.855.813.3385 | cradlepoint.com 42
User Manual / IBR600B/IBR650B 9/5/17
• In Main mode, IKE separates the key information from the
identities, allowing for the identities of peers to be secure at
the expense of extra packet exchanges.
• In Aggressive mode, IKE tries to combine as much information
into fewer packets while maintaining security. Aggressive mode
is slightly faster but less secure.
Because it has better security, Main mode is recommended for
most users.
Key Lifetime: The lifetime of the generated keys of phase 1 of the
IPsec negotiation from IKE. After the time has expired, IKE will
renegotiate a new set of phase 1 keys.
Encryption, Hash, and DH Groups
Each IKE exchange uses one encryption algorithm, one hash function, and one DH group to make a secure
exchange.
Encryption: Used to encrypt messages sent and received by IPsec.
• AES 128
• AES 256
• DES
• 3DES
Hash: Used to compare, authenticate, and validate that data across the VPN arrives in its intended form and to
derive keys used by IPSec.
• MD5
• SHA1
• SHA2 256
• SHA2 384
• SHA2 512
Note that some Encryption/Hash combinations (e.g., 3DES with SHA2 384/512) are computationally expensive,
impacting WAN performance. AES is as strong an encryption and performs much better than 3DES.
DH Groups
numbers associated with key generation. The strength of the key generated is partially determined by the
strength of the DH Group. Group 5, for instance, has greater strength than Group 2.
• Group 1: 768-bit key
• Group 2: 1024-bit key
• Group 5: 1536-bit key
In IKE Phase 1 you can only select one DH group if you are using Aggressive exchange mode.
By default, all the algorithms (encryption, hash, and DH groups) supported by the device are checked, which
means they are allowed for any given exchange. Deselect these options to limit which algorithms will be
accepted. Be sure to check that the router (or similar device) at the other end of the tunnel has matching
algorithms.
The algorithms are listed in order by priority. You can reorder this priority list by clicking and dragging
algorithms up or down. Any selected algorithm may be used for IKE exchange, but the algorithms on the top of
the list are more likely to be used more often.

Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS): Enabling this feature will require IKE to generate a new set of keys in phase

Key Lifetime: The lifetime of the generated keys of phase 2 of the IPsec negotiation from IKE. After the time
has expired, IKE will renegotiate a new set of phase 2 keys.
Phase 2 has the same selection of Encryption and DH Groups as phase 1, but you are restricted to only one
DH Group. Phase 2 and phase 1 selections do not have to match. For the Hash selection an added value of
truncation, but RFC4868 requires 128-bit. A VPN to newer Cisco or Juniper devices will typically require 128-bit.

ROUTING
STATIC ROUTES
Add a new static route to the IP routing table or edit/remove an existing route.
Static routes are used in networks with more than one layer, such as when there
is a network within a network so that packet destinations are hidden behind an
additional router. Adding a static route is a way of telling the router about an
additional step that packets will need to take to reach their destination.
Click Add to create a new static route.

creates this IP Filter Rule. If the IP/Network Address falls outside the
LAN IP range, you probably need to select this option.
Distribute: Allow this static route to be distributed via a routing protocol (BGP, OSPF, RIP, RIPng).
POLICY ROUTING
Policy routing allows for the addition of routes which are only
evaluated when a certain set of conditions match. The evaluation
occurs before the main system routes and can override the primary

OSPF
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) version 2 is a routing protocol described in RFC2328, OSPF Version 2. OSPF
is an IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol). Compared with RIP, OSPF can provide more scalable network support
and faster convergence times. OSPF is widely used in large networks such as ISP (Internet Service Provider)
backbone and enterprise networks. Click Add to add an OSPF router.

RIP
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a widely deployed interior gateway protocol. RIP is a distance-vector
protocol based on the Bellman-Ford algorithms. As a distance-vector protocol, RIP sends updates from
one router to its neighbors periodically, allowing the convergence to a known topology. In each update, the
distance to any given network will be broadcast to its neighboring router. The router supports RIP version 2 as
described in RFC2453 and RIP version 1 as described in RFC1058.

Neighbors: When a neighbor doesn’t understand multicast, this command is used to specify neighbors. In some
cases, not all routers will be able to understand multicasting, where packets are sent to a network or a group

direct link between routers. The neighbor command allows the network administrator to specify a router as a
RIP neighbor. The no neighbor a.b.c.d command will disable the RIP neighbor. Assign a neighbor by inputting an

Force All DNS Requests To Router: Enabling this will redirect all DNS requests from LAN clients to the router’s
DNS server. This will allow the router even more control over IP addresses even when clients have their own
DNS servers statically set.
Split DNS
Split DNS allows you create two zones for the same domain, one to be used by the internal network, the other
used by the external network. Split DNS directs internal hosts to an internal domain name server for name
resolution and external hosts are directed to an external domain name server for name resolution.

Remote Management allows a user to enable incoming
WAN pings or change settings for the router from the

Allow WAN pings – When enabled the functionality
allows an external WAN client to ping the router.
Allow Remote Web Administration – When remote
administration is enabled it allows access to these
administration web pages from the Internet. With it
disabled, you must be a client on the local network to
access the administration website. For security, remote
access is usually done via a non-standard http port. Additionally, encrypted connections can be required for an

Access Restriction.
Allow Remote SSH Access – This will enable SSH access to the router from the Internet. It is only available when
SSH access is enabled in the Local Management tab. Some carriers block the remote SSH access ports. If a ping
to the router’s WAN port does not work, it is unlikely that remote SSH access will work.
Enabling NTP will tell the router to get its system time
from a remote server on the Internet. If you do not
enable NTP, the router time will be based on when the
router OS was built, which is guaranteed to be wrong.
Whenever the Internet connection is re-established and
once a week thereafter the router will ask the server
for the current time so it can correct itself.
You then have the option of selecting an NTP server and
adjusting the NTP server port. Select the NTP server
from the dropdown list. Any of the given NTP servers
synchronize your router’s time with other devices in a
network.
• Time Zone – Select from a dropdown list. Setting your Time Zone is required to properly show time in your
router log.
• Daylight Savings Time – Select this checkbox if your location observes daylight saving time.
LOCAL MANAGEMENT
• Enable Internet Bounce Pages – Bounce pages show up in your web browser when the router is not
connected to the Internet. They inform you that you are not connected and try to explain why. If you disable
bounce pages then you will just get the usual browser timeout. In the normal case when the router is
connected to the Internet you don’t see them at all.
• Reboot Count – Track number of router reboots.

SMS
SMS (Short Message Service, or text messaging) requires a cellular modem with an active data plan. SMS is not
designed to be a full remote management feature: SMS allows you to connect to the router for a few simple
queries or commands with a text messaging service (e.g., from your phone). A modem that does not have
SMS is enabled on the router by default. However, it only
works if SMS is supported and enabled on the modem.
Most modems have SMS enabled by default, but the
carrier may charge a fee for each text message sent or
received. Contact your carrier to review these fees and/or
to enable an SMS plan.
Important notes about SMS:
• Messages are limited to 160 characters.
• SMS is not a guaranteed delivery protocol. The carriers do not guarantee that the SMS message will be
delivered to the modem or that the modem’s response will be delivered to the sender. This means an
administrator might have to send messages multiple times before the desired action is performed.
• SMS is a slow protocol. It can take seconds or up to a few minutes for messages to be delivered.
• SMS messages are not encrypted; they are sent in full readable text over the network.
Enable SMS support – SMS support is enabled by default on the router. Deselect this to disable.
Password – By default, the password is the last eight characters of the router’s MAC address (i.e., the Default
Password on the product label). You can change this password to anything between 1 and 16 characters. It
should be long enough to be useful for security but short enough to easily type into your phone (or other
texting client).
White List – This list is blank by default, which means that the router will accept SMS messages from any phone
number. Leaving this blank is unsecure, so Cradlepoint recommends that you add phone numbers to this list.
Once any numbers are listed, only those numbers have the ability to connect to the router via SMS.

UTF-8 encoding. By default the router will attach the Unicode Byte
Order Mark (BOM) to the Syslog message in compliance with the Syslog protocol, RFC5424. Some Syslog
servers may not fully support RFC5424 and will treat the BOM as ASCII text, which will appear as garbled
characters in the log. If this occurs, disable this option.

ROUTER SERVICES
By default, router services (NetCloud Manager, NTP, etc.)
connect to the router via the WAN. In some setups it
makes sense to use the LAN instead. For example, if
your router is used strictly for 3G/4G failover behind
another router, you may not want to use 3G/4G data
unnecessarily. Select Use LAN Gateway to set your
router services to connect via the LAN.
LAN Gateway Address: Input the IP address of the
LAN side connection. If this is a 3G/4G failover router
operating behind another router, the LAN Gateway

alert. Options: No Alert, High, Low, Both.
• Action:
• Low (default): In this mode the output pin is not used and is at 0V (ground potential).
• High/Router Running: In these modes the output pin is logic low while the router is booting and
transitions to logic high when the router is fully running. If the router is reset, the output returns to low
until the router has fully rebooted.
• Modem Connected: In this mode the output pin is logic low until the modem has connected to the tower.
If the connection drops, this output is set low until the connection is restored.
* - Hardware note: The output-only pin is an open collector/drain.

Speed Test
• Tests Against Cradlepoint Server - Up to
ten speed tests are permitted against a
Cradlepoint server.
• WAN Device - The WAN Device that is
selected will have the test run on it. If no
device is selected then the highest priority
connected device will be used.
• Custom Server - Type the Hostname or IP
address of the server to which you wish to
perform a test. If left empty the test will
be done to a Cradlepoint server.
• Custom Port (Optional) - The port to which
the test is directed.
• Max Duration - The Max Duration is the
Maximum amount of time for which the
• Data Limit - The Data Limit is the limit of
how much data will be transferred while
measuring the connection speed; this
should be limited to reduce the expense
of a speed test. Setting the limit to 0 will
cause the test to run until enough data is
collected or the duration limit is met.

Administrator Password and Time Zone
Enter a password for the administrator who will have full
access to the router’s management interface.
You can use the default password on the back of your
product, or you can create a custom Administrator Password.
Conguring Your Wireless Network
• Wireless Network Name - When you are browsing for
available wireless networks, this is the name that
will be broadcast from this router. This name is also
referred to as the SSID. For security purposes, it is highly
network name.
• Enable Guest Network - If the guest network is enabled,
anyone can connect to the special guest network
which allows limited connectivity to the Internet while
preventing access to your local network.
• Security Mode
• Best (WPA2): Select this option if your wireless
adapters support WPA2-only mode. This will
connect to most new devices and is the most
secure, but may not connect to older devices or
some handheld devices such as a PSP.
• Good (WPA1 & WPA2): Select this option if your
wireless adapters support WPA or WPA2. This is the
most compatible with modern devices and PCs.
• Poor (WEP): Select this option if your wireless
adapters only support WEP. This should only be used
if a legacy device that only supports WEP will be connected to the router. WEP is insecure and obsolete
and is only supported in the router for legacy reasons. The router cannot use 802.11n modes if WEP is
enabled; router WiFi performance and range will be limited.
• None (OPEN): Select this option if you do not want to activate any security features.
• WPA Password - The WPA Password must be between 8 and 64 characters long. A combination of upper
and lower case letters along with numbers and special characters is recommended to prevent hackers from
gaining access to your network.

• Off: Once the link is established the router takes no
action to verify that it is still up.
• On: Modems will be set to use the Passive DNS
failure check type. Ethernet and WiFi as WAN
connections will be set to use Active Ping.
