Cradlepoint Releases Firmware 2.3 for CTR350 + PHS300

CradlePoint has released Firmware Version 2.3.0 for the CTR350 Cellular Travel Router and the PHS300 Personal Hotspot.

Device compatibilty added for:

• Huawei EC228/Alltel
• Novatel U760/Sprint and Verizon (GPS – Sprint only)
• Pantech UM100/Cricket
• Pantech UM175/Verizon and Alltel
• Sierra Wireless Compass 598U/Sprint (GPS)
• Sierra Wireless AT&T USBConnect Mercury/AT&T
• Huawei E870/AT&T
• RIM BlackBerry Curve 8330/Sprint and Verizon
• RIM BlackBerry 9530 Storm/Verizon

Notes:

• 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. The 2.2 firmware version had a feature to automatically save and restore settings, but in post-release testing a defect was found in the implementation so it has been disabled in this release.

New features added in this release:

• OpenDNS support on Sprint network under Advanced -> Web Filter. Some carrier's DNS servers intercept requests to other DNS services. This change provides a workaround to allow the use of the router's Advanced -> Web Filter -> OpenDNS content filtering functionality or your personal OpenDNS account settings.
• Bounce page billboard. We added the ability to customize the "authorize_client.html" page, which is the page someone first sees when trying to access the Internet using the router. The default code used for our page is available as an example. CradlePoint Support will not provide help writing HTML, if you aren't comfortable with HTML this isn't the feature for you. Under Tools -> User Login -> Customize Billboard are two buttons and a checkbox.

Routers purchased from More Mobile Internet are shipped with the most current firmware already installed.
