What chance the Cradlepoints work in the UK?

They should be contacting you soon. We asked them to contact you directly and provided them with your e-mail address.

Be sure to let us know if you have something working, The UK can get in on the action then as well!

First off - great work by everyone trying to get the Cradelpoint working with the Huawei modems.

Unfortunately I did not purchase a router on the basis that I was unsure whether it would work with my Huawei E172 after contacting Cradlepoint Support.

However I spoke to a Sales Engineer (I will withold his name) who sent me a bin file to load on the PHS and see if it works. Unfortunately he asked me not to resend this file so I suggest contacting Cradlepoint directly.

Sorry for not being more helpful.

Wow, they built a new firmware for you to test? That is so much more than you get from any other router company.

Make sure you post your results, with CradlePoint's blessing if you need to get it.

If all companies were ran like cradle point people would have no complaints I have a ctr 350 and I purchased mine from the 3g store I have not had any reason to call for support but if I need it it is an extra benefit of buying from them. but I really like how cradlepoint operates there buisness. How many companies have you heard of doing these things for their customers.

Are you saying you didn't get firmware for the right unit? Did you ping them back and ask for the right firmware?

hi, I'm planning on getting one of these sent over. Either from ebay if they ship here or get it shipped to my uncles in Florida and then shipped to me.

When you talk of modem strings, is this just the APPN settings? general.tmobile.uk or something more?

Yea, you can program the APN in the latest firmwares using AT commands. They show you an example of how to do it in the help files.

So you can program one onto your sim, and you can see what ones are already on your sim/modem under the status/modem info page. It pops up with all the "profiles" that are on your sim/modem that it can detect.

Can the cradlepoint router work in the uk

well i will find out next week

going to order it today

i think i can get it to work dont want to put all my eggs in one basket but i think i have a solution

I bought a O2 Aircard 875u

unlocked it for any network

tested it in the most difficult network of all Three mobile

and it worked

now the cradle point router supports at/t AIRCARD 875U same one as the uk card.

i downloaded the standard Aircard software that allows you to add profiles for diffrent networks to the card.

hopefully the data is saved to the aircard

if so all i should need to do is plug it into the cradlepoint router and bobs your uncle

it might just work

will post back later with an update

PHS 300 works in Europe. I have been using it with HTC TyTN since firmware 2.1 has been released.
