Great item for boats, thanks

Date Added: 09/30/2019 by Kenneth S. (BEAVERTON, OR)
It works great for our construction job trailers, where we need to plug a copier into the network, everyone else can be on wireless. Saves us from wireless printing which is always an issue.

i need a 6 to 10 meters cable that first with it

The BR1 Pro 5g has (4) Cellular SMA Female, (1) GPS SMA Female, and (2) Wifi RP-SMA Female connectors. Any cable that terminates in SMA Male would be sufficient for the cellular and GPS connectors. A RP-SMA Male cable would be required for the WiFi connectors.

To recommend a cable, we would first need to identify what antenna would be installed. Antennas terminate with different connectors and the type of connector would influence the cable required.


How tall (physically) are the Wifi & Cell antennas? Needed for sizing on shelf height spacing.

The B One 5g utilizes the following:

(4) Peplink Paddle Indoor LTE/5G Wideband (600-6000MHZ) Cellular Antenna - SMA Male Connector (https://5gstore.com/1/13020)

(2) Pepwave 7.5" WiFi Paddle Antenna (2.4Ghz) (https://5gstore.com/product/6510)

The Cellular antennas are 5.5" long and the WiFi antennas are 7.5".

Can I buy a Dc power cord for this unit

This unit has two additional cables for DC. The GPIO cable (https://5gstore.com/1/10233) and the vehicle cigarette lighter adapter (https://5gstore.com/1/11003).

Is this router plug and play as far as VPN and WiFi? Also, can the MAC address be cloned on the fly?

The Surf SOHO supports SpeedFusion, L2TP, and Open VPN. It also has Wi-Fi as WAN and standard Wi-Fi broadcast features. The router has a default SSID broadcasting and ready to use out of the box.

The MAC address can be manually changed for the physical WAN ports only on Peplink devices.

Can both SIM card connections on the MAX BR1 Mini be used simultaneously?

No - this router has a single modem with redundant SIM slots. This means you can have two SIMs inserted, but only one will be active at a time. The second SIM can be used for backup, failover, etc (e.g. you can configure the router to prioritize one SIM and switch to the second one only if the first is unavailable, or to switch when a certain data cap is reached, or to switch if the signal is poor, etc)

Does the MAX BR1 support bridge mode/ passthrough mode for WiFi WAN connections?

This does NOT support Bridge mode for WiFi WAN or any WAN connection.

What is the difference between the MAX BR1 Classic and the MAX BR1 Mini?

The BR1 Classic is larger in size and has 1 additional Ethernet LAN port. It also comes with the Ethernet and WiFi WAN connections active, unlike the BR1 Mini that requires a license to activate. The BR1 Classic also provides more WiFi range (250-300ft vs 100-150ft on the Mini).

Does the Pepwave MAX BR1 Classic support IPv6?

Yes, Peplink has confirmed that firmware will be released that will support IPv6.

Does the Pepwave MAX BR1 Classic support captive portal for guest access?

Yes! The BR1 has a captive portal feature which can redirect users to a terms and conditions page. Once they accept, they can be sent to their original destination or redirected to a page you choose such as a company site, etc.
