DrayTek Vigor C510ax - 5G WiFi 6 VPN Router

The Vigor C510ax is the 5G member of DrayTek's cellular WAN security router family, pairing an embedded 5G modem with Wi-Fi 6. Built for sites where mobile broadband is the primary connection — not merely a fallback — it runs in "Always On" mode by default, delivering seamless, uninterrupted internet access wherever 5G or 4G coverage reaches.

It carries the full security toolkit of the series: VPN, QoS, route policy, web content filtering, Identity and Access Management (IAM) and a hotspot web portal for guest access. That makes it equally at home in a serviced office, events space or remote depot. Add a VigorSwitch G1080 for wired devices and a VigorAP 805 where extra Wi-Fi coverage is needed.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a backup router or a primary router?

Primary — the C510ax is designed as a cellular-first WAN solution and operates in "Always On" mode by default, so the 5G connection is the site's main internet feed.

What do I need to get online?

A SIM with a suitable data plan from your chosen network. 5G delivers the best speeds where available, and tell us about the site if you would like advice on coverage.

Can I offer guest Wi-Fi?

Yes — the built-in hotspot web portal handles guest access, while IAM and content filtering keep it controlled and safe.

When should I pick the C410ax instead?

Where 5G coverage is not available or not needed — the C410ax offers the same cellular-first security router concept at a lower price point.
