Overview

A built in LTE modem with a SIM slot feeds this Mudi travel router, which shares the connection over dual band WiFi and can push all traffic through WireGuard or OpenVPN. A built in battery runs it away from power.

Cellular backhaul, a battery and VPN in one device give a secure private network anywhere a SIM has signal. VPN speeds are modest, and the eSIM card for switching operators is sold separately.

Who it's for

Digital nomads, field teams and travellers who want their own encrypted network instead of hotel or cafe WiFi. Users in the listed restricted countries cannot use the cellular feature.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Built in LTE modem with SIM slot
  • Long battery life
  • WireGuard and OpenVPN built in
  • MicroSD storage sharing
Cons
  • Modest VPN throughput
  • Physical eSIM card sold separately
  • Cellular blocked in some countries

Performance notes

Real speed is set by the mobile signal first, then by the router processor when VPN encryption is on, which is why WireGuard runs much faster than OpenVPN here. Battery runtime falls as more devices connect and the modem works harder in weak coverage. Dual band WiFi spreads clients across both bands.
