Overview

Setting up failover between several internet connections is the main job for the Cudy router, which also balances traffic and runs VPN servers and clients. OpenWRT support opens VLANs, custom firewall rules and community packages.

Multi-WAN failover and a full VPN suite at this size suit small businesses that cannot go offline. It is a wired router only, so wireless needs separate access points.

Who it's for

Small offices, remote workers and network tinkerers who juggle multiple ISPs will use its features. Typical homes needing Wi-Fi should buy a wireless router.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wide VPN protocol support
  • Cloud management app
Cons
  • Gigabit ports only
  • Advanced setup takes skill

Performance notes

Failover watches each connection and reroutes traffic when one drops. VPN throughput depends on the router's processor and the protocol chosen. OpenWRT unlocks fine control but requires networking knowledge.
