The CradlePoint CTR-35 also allows you to create two WiFi Networks SSIDs (1 for owner / private + 1 for guests / public ). So you can create a private, secure and prioritized connection for you while still sharing with your friends!

Small, portable and offers WiFi as WAN

The CTR35 looks very similar to the PHS300 and CTR500. It's definitely "travel-size", at just 4.7” x 2.7” x 0.8”. Like the PHS300, the CTR35 features just one input for cellular modems

Simply put, WiFi as WAN means that the router can receive WiFi from an external source (for example, campground WiFi at an RV park, free WiFi at McDonald's, etc) and create a private network that you can access securely through the CTR35 (either via WiFi or ethernet, however you like to connect to your router).

It works well in a vehicle and also in our camper.

Date Added: 01/29/2013 by Richard B. (Hadley, MI)
The purchase went with out a hitch. There was an issue of conflicting IP addresses with the router and modem which made the installation more difficult than usual. For an amateur such as myself your technical department and technician, Mallory, were incredible in resolving the matter. Look forward to doing business in the future.

Product works well with Samsung Exibit II (t679). Cradlepoint was recognized by the phone and was able to use(easy set up). Important info: 4G users need a strong signal from provider,otherwise your streaming or other products connected to the cradlepoint will not work properly (cuts out), recomend you move the phone to an open location or use a cell booster.

The product works great! However the instructions for my particular make-up was wrong which caused much confusion over nothing. I am extremely pleased with this product. It does everything that I need and was extremely easy to hook up.

Works great. Plugged in a wireless broadbard card with an antenna and created a wireless network at remote site.

This slick little router is just what I needed. I have an air card with unlimited data still and I did not want to give up the unlimited data but I wanted to be able to use tablets, hook my phone and laptop up wirelessly. I was considering getting a MIFI but I would have to change my plan. This was cheaper, I got to keep my plan and now I have full control over how I use my air card. It also came with a car charger so I can take it with me. Setup took 5 mins. I was surprised with the size too. Its about an inch thick and about the size of a playing card. The only con I see with the router is the wireless signal is a bit limited. If you get more than 30 feet or so from the router, especially with walls between you and it the signal is weak.

Works like a charm. Was easy to set up, seems to be working great with a Verizon USB-551L. Doesn't seem to be terribly feature rich, but does just what I wanted - sharing a 3G USB key internet connection with computers over both the wired and wireless connections.

I bought this thing to improve my wireless gaming on my 4G LTE verizon modem. So far it has done its job.

The CradlePoint CTR35 router is pretty easy to set up and easy to use. I performs great. The ordering process was a breeze and the delivery was on time.

The five starts are for the 3Gstore and the support they gave me in suggesting the appropriate products and then help me when I stumbled trying to set it up. Good Job! Peter
