Tabletop wireless router Cudy P5 — Dual-band Wi‑Fi 6, 5G Sub6, Dual NanoSIM, Gigabit Ethernet, 6 detachable antennas, 256MB RAM

The Cudy P5 Gigabit Ethernet Dual-band 5G router combines Qualcomm 5G and Qualcomm Wi‑Fi 6 technologies to deliver high-speed, low-latency connectivity. With 3GPP Rel.16 support, the P5 offers fiber-like latency and peak 5G speeds of up to 2.4 Gbps downstream and 900 Mbps upstream (standalone). The router also provides up to 3000 Mbps combined dual-band Wi‑Fi 6 throughput, Mesh support for wider coverage, and security features such as VPN and DNS over TLS.

Advantages

The P5 supports full 160 MHz channel width on the 5 GHz band for peak Wi‑Fi 6 speeds (up to 2402 Mbps on 5 GHz) and extended 2.4 GHz coverage for larger areas. OFDMA and a powerful CPU increase device capacity, enabling stable connections for many simultaneous clients. Dual Nano SIM slots and redundant SIM/backup modes offer failover options, while WAN port configuration with 4G/5G backup ensures continuous internet access. Detachable cellular antennas with SMA connectors allow signal optimization and extension cable support up to 12 meters. Advanced DNS encryption and VPN support protect DNS traffic on public networks.

Suitable for

• 4K streaming and live video in multiple rooms
• Low-latency online gaming and real-time applications
• Homes or small offices requiring a reliable primary or backup internet link
• Environments needing broad Wi‑Fi coverage and mesh expansion

Key specifications

• Mobile network generation: 5G (3GPP Rel.16)
• Peak 5G speeds: up to 2.4 Gbps DL (SA) / 900 Mbps UL (SA)
• Wi‑Fi: Wi‑Fi 6, dual‑band, up to 2402 Mbps (5 GHz) and combined up to 3000 Mbps
• Channel width: full 160 MHz on 5 GHz
• SIM type: Dual NanoSIM (redundant SIM slots, auto/manual failover)
• Ports: Gigabit Ethernet (WAN/LAN configurable)
• Antennas: detachable cellular antennas, SMA interface, extension cable support up to 12 m
• Security: VPN support, DNS over TLS (DNS encryption)
• Other: OFDMA, TTL settings (IPv4 TTL and IPv6 HL), 4G/5G band lock

How to use

Install Nano SIM(s) into the dual SIM slots and connect the router to power. Configure the WAN/LAN port as WAN if you plan to use landline internet with cellular backup, or leave it as LAN for local network use. Access the web-based setup or mobile interface to select network mode (auto/manual) for SIM redundancy, set band lock or TTL values as required by your ISP, and enable Mesh if extending coverage. Attach or adjust the detachable cellular antennas and, if necessary, connect extension cables to the SMA connectors to improve reception.

Recommendations

Place the Cudy P5 centrally for best Wi‑Fi coverage and use the detachable antennas to optimize cellular reception. Use WAN with 4G/5G backup when a stable primary wired connection is available, and enable DNS over TLS or VPN when connecting through public networks.
