Title: Excellent performance & failover security for $50...
Review: I bought this for our home network, which has Spectrum main and Verizon 4G LTE backup Internet services. The Spectrum service is delivered through a cable modem in bridge mode to WAN1 of the Cudy R700, and the Verizon Business Gateway is set for IP pass-through on WAN2. The R700 has a standard GUI that is easy to access and the various settings are easy to adjust. As some others have noted, those among us that want to use an unlimited bandwidth main Internet connection and a capped backup connection suffer from a lack of information. I hope that this review will help with this. Log in to the R700 and go to General Settings > WAN Mode and select port 2 to create WAN2. Be sure to click Save & Apply and now you have WAN1 and WAN2 set up. Now connect your uncapped service on port 1 / WAN1 and your capped backup service port 2 / WAN2. You can then take port 5 / LAN and connect it to your home router / home network. Verify the LEDs on all of the ports are flashing to visually confirm activity, and then in the GUI go to System Status to confirm that the R700 indeed "sees" WAN1 and WAN2 "Connected" and online. Click Load Balancing > More Details > Settings > Member. Click Edit on WAN1 and set Metric=1 and Weight=3 and then click Save. Click Edit on WAN2 and set Metric=2 and Weight=3 and then click Save. My R700 came with Firmware Version 1.15.5 UN and required no other modifications than these, and the result is all traffic on WAN1 and zero traffic on WAN2. When WAN1 goes down WAN2 will take 100% of the traffic. Lastly, when WAN1 comes back online, traffic is rerouted 100% back to WAN1 and WAN2 returns to idle / failover mode. I have performed extensive testing to confirm this behavior over several days and confirmed it with data usage details on the cellular account. The failover performance is impressive, and the R700's interface tracking is superb with its out-of-the-box settings. The R700 can determine if service is up or down with such sensitivity that even active video streams are not interrupted when pulling the WAN1 connection right out of the port. Spectrum service in my area is good, but has occasional outages a few times per year lasting an hour or two at a time on average, and if the power goes down Spectrum goes down too. Our home has a backup generator and our network has a large UPS as well, so the Verizon cellular connection never goes down but it is slower and costly, so it is imperative that it is used strictly for backup use. We work from home and have an extensive amount of IoT devices, tablets, phones, security cameras, lights, thermostats etc. that require a constant Internet connection in order to maintain the control and convenience of the entire home; we now no longer have to worry about the Spectrum outages on account of the failover performance of this multi-WAN device. The Verizon backup service is provisioned for 1 GB of data per month and we have not exceeded the allowance thus far. That said, each additional GB block of data is $15, so again it is crucial that the device NOT use WAN2 at all unless WAN1 goes down, and the R700 does the job very well in my experience. I had to get the information on the Metric and Weight settings from Cudy directly, which did respond to my email about a week after I sent it, so I just posted this review in order to help anyone that wanted to employ the R700 for a similar purpose. Please be aware that if the above steps are not taken, the WAN1 and WAN2 ports when enabled will be utilized in Load Balancing mode with the device defaults, which will effectively divide your traffic between the interfaces, which WILL consume data on WAN2; in other words, NOT failover. I hope this helps and I am very happy that with a small investment of just a little time and patience on the R700 to make sure it was set the way we needed. There is no other device of this type available at this time that can deliver this kind of performance for $50. It's a solid device with good performance at a great price, well worth just a little effort during setup to ensure your highly online life remains connected through the inevitable outages that will come. A++

Title: YOU NEED THIS IF YOU WORK FROM HOME!!!
Review: I have two home internet providers because I work from home and need to be able to access the internet for work even if one of my internet providers goes offline.I also wanted something that was less hassle than having to connect to my other internet when one of them went offline.This Cudy Multi-WAN VPN Router was the answer I was searching for.It's simple to setup and easy to use. Just follow the Quick Setup guide in the box.1) Power the device on.2) Connect Internet1 to "WAN" port (this port is already configured to be a WAN port)3) Connect Internet2 to "WAN 2" port (you will need to configure this port to be a WAN port)4) Connect your computer or Wireless Access Point to "LAN 1" port5) Configure WAN 2 port to be "WAN" and not "LAN" (super easy to do, just follow the Quick Setup guide to connect to the device)Don't forget to change your Cudy admin password!I went to download the latest version of the device firmware from the manufacturers website but I found that the device was already running a newer version of firmware than what was actually available for download from the site.Pros:AffordableQuick and easy to configure (if you have some basic IT knowledge but a non-IT person might struggle with the port configuration... I thought it was pretty straight forward)Fast (due to load balancing, my two internet speeds are basically combined now, increasing my download/upload speeds)Auto-connects you to the other internet, if one should fail.Cons:I'll let you know if I find any!Conclusion:I highly recommend this product for anyone looking to use a "backup internet" for remote work who also wants an automatic and seamless failover.

Review: Vor kurzem wurde endlich der Glasfaseranschluß realisiert. Nachdem mein DSL-Vertrag noch über 1 Jahr weiter läuft habe ich eine günstige Möglichkeit gesucht beide Anschlüsse so zu gestalten, dass sowohl DSL als auch der Glasfaseranschluss benutzt werden kann ohne Modems oder Router aus- und anzuschalten.Mit dem Cudy R700 ist das perfekt gelungen.Der Glasfaseranschluss ist der Hauptzugang zum Internet. Über den DSL Anschluss wird erst mal nur die Telefonie abgewickelt. Gleichzeitig ermöglicht aber auch der Cudy R700 bei Ausfall einer der beiden Leitungen automatisch auf die andere umzuschalten und somit den durchgehenden Zugang zum Internet zu gewährleisten. Für mich das perfekte und auch kostengünstigste System.

Review: Le but étant d'avoir une connexion de secours 4G en cas de panne de ma box fibre, ce routeur multi-Wan répond à mes attentes. La bascule peut toutefois prendre 1 minutes.Pour le paramétrage, j'avoue n'avoir pas tout compris étant profane sur les config réseau et le menu étant principalement en anglais, pour l'instant je n'ai pas configuré de VPN mais je ne l'ai pas pris pour ça. Outre les connexions de secours possibles par ce routeur (jusqu'à 4), il permet de soulager ma box qui à priori ne supportant pas les gros trafiques et était sujet à de nombreux plantages lorsque la bande passante était sollicitée. A ce prix là, nous sommes forcément limités à 1 Gbps par port, donc bridage des connexions au débit supérieur...Pour ma part, ce débit me suffit largement pour l'usage que j'en fais.

Review: Este dispositivo no es un switch, aunque es una de sus funciones.Se usa para generar una Red privada wan y así tener una Red de trabajo.Tiene muchas funciones:Servidor desdeServidor dhcpDdnsFirewall (protección de ataque DDOS)SwitchServidor/Cliente VPNETC..Para quien le interese el tema de la vpn se puede configurar tanto como servidor como para cliente, lo que significa que puedes hacer que el dispositivo lleve y gestione la von siendo él mismo el servidor o bien por ejemplo tener ya una y luego conectarte a ella, teniendo todos los dispositivos conectados al Cudy dentro de la Red vpn a la que se conecta.
