Need Portable WiFi? Small CradlePoint Routers Compared
Video Transcript
Hello! Steve here with More Mobile Internet. Today I am going to show you the three, small cradlepoint routers, and show you the differences between the three. Let us start of with the CTR 350. This is of course the first one that came out. It has got a USB port over here. And on the other side we have an Ethernet port here, and the power here. So, simple, small and easy to use. That is the cradlepoint, CTR 350.
The next one that came along was the PHS or personal hotspot 300. And this one is missing in the Ethernet port. There is one here, so it is wireless only. Here we have got a USB port, the power, and on and off switch here. The real selling point of this one however is in the back. Behind this panel is a battery. This allows you to use this device with no power for up to two hours at a time. Very handy.
The next one that came along was the CTR 500. This one has a couple of new innovations. One is right here, it is a signal strength commuter. That comes in very handy so you can see what kind of a power you are getting from the card itself. Now if we look over here we have got the power, an Ethernet port, so you can have one computer cable then, on and off switch for the wireless, and then USB port as well. Over here we have, it is an express card slot. That is new. Yes, indeed. An express card goes right in this just like that. So now you have got the option of two different kinds of cards working with this device.
Additionally, let us say you want to have a device that works a little bit farther. The range is a little bit more. Well you can do that with this device. It has got a port here for an external antenna. So if you need more power, you can do that.
Now, one other thing that I want to show you is we have an adapter here for express cards that looks like this. What this does is it turns any express card into USB. So now it will also work with the smaller routers or to work directly into a desktop as well. Of course all of this items are available at MoreMobileInternet.com.
