CradlePoint has released Firmware Version 2.4 that provides official device support for:- Sprint AirCard 402 (requires USB to expresscard adapter)
- Alltel EC168
- AT&T QuickSilver and MC930D
- Cricket CalComp A600
Other international market devices and additional information about this firmware release can be found in the official Cradlepoint release notes PDF for firmware 2.4
PLEASE NOTE: Upgrading to this firmware release will cause a factory reset from previous firmware. Please be sure to save your configuration settings (Tools -> Admin menu) before loading this firmware and then restore your configuration afterwards.
For those ordering the CTR350 or PHS300 from http://3Gstore.com, starting 05/28/09, we will automatically include a CD that has the latest firmware.

Why no mention of the 4G support????
It appears as if this release now supports WiMAX modems. |

because the actual hardware that CAN support 4G, is not available.
a hardware revision 2.0 model of PHS300 is needed for WiMax. |

In the release notes for CTR350/PHS300 firmware v2.4, it states the following:
RIM BlackBerry. BlackBerry firmware less than version 4.5 is supported. Version 4.5 and later does not work with the router.
CradlePoint tech support has indicated that this appears to be mainly directed at the Curve -- I am successfully using the CTR350 and v2.4 firmware with my 8830 (OS v4.5.0.160 (253), Platform 3.4.0.41). Does the 3Gstore have any additional info on which BlackBerry devices using OS v4.5 (or later) do/do not work with the CradlePoint routers? |

| I'm still on 2.2.1, is there any reason for me to upgrade to 2.4? I'm using a U727 with Sprint. |

"if it ain't broke..." 
i'd only suggest upgrading if there was some feature you need.
the 2.4 firmware release notes detail all the changes. |

| Thanks. That's what I was thinking, but I didn't know if there were performance enhancements not stated in the release notes. |

in the future, if we think there are things like performance enhancements, we'll probably post our reasons to upgrade as a sticky. |
