LT18

The Fastest 4G Standard in Practice

Cudy LT18 is among the fastest 4G routers using the 3GPP Category 18. The built-in 4×4 MIMO high-performance antennas significantly improve the signal receptions, while 5CA utilises multiple bands simultaneously to boost download speeds to the Gigabit level.

Wi-Fi 6 Improves Everything

Wi-Fi 6 delivers faster speeds and greater capacity with advanced OFDMA and 1024-QAM technology. The 5 GHz band provides gigabit-level speeds for a responsive networking experience, and the 2.4 GHz band extends the signal range for improved coverage.

Dual SIM Slots

Dual SIM slots provide redundancy and keep the device always online.

Backup and Detachable Antennas

WAN/WISP/Cellular1/Cellular2 give you triple backups for a reliable network. To enhance signal quality, you may replace cellular antennas with extension antennas.

Online Redundancy

Dual SIM slot redundancy and WAN/Cellular backup provide high redundancy for the network.

Band Lock

4G/5G band lock makes it possible to lock the 4G working frequency to one or several bands to maintain operation stability.

(Image for reference. See supported bands in the spec sheet)

TTL Settings

Support manual sets TTL values to meet ISP's requirements. Support set IPv4 TTL and IPv6 HL Values.

Advanced DNS Security

Encrypt your web browsing lookup with trustful partners, preventing eavesdropping and manipulation of DNS data via a man-in-the-middle attack.
