GL.iNet Mudi 7 (GL-E5800) 5G NR Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 Travel Router

The Mudi 7 is what you pack when your income depends on being online. Its Qualcomm X72-based 5G modem reaches 4.67 Gbps on Sub-6 GHz networks, and tri-band Wi-Fi 7 shares it out at up to 5,765 Mbps (6 GHz), 2,882 Mbps (5 GHz) and 688 Mbps (2.4 GHz) — enough for smooth livestreams, uninterrupted meetings and secure payments on hotel networks.

Connectivity does not hinge on one carrier: dual SIM dual standby plus a built-in eSIM lets you switch networks instantly without touching a physical card, and dual TS-9 antenna ports help in dead zones. The 2.8-inch LCD touchscreen puts VPN toggles, QR-code Wi-Fi sharing and repeater settings at your fingertips — no admin panel needed.

A 5,380 mAh battery runs up to 13.5 hours and recharges over 24W PD fast charging, while VPN speeds of up to 700 Mbps (OpenVPN-DCO) and 600 Mbps (WireGuard) keep encrypted work traffic quick. A 2.5G Ethernet port and 10 Gbps USB-C round out a genuinely professional kit — from UK stock with support from CLI Secure.

Frequently asked questions

How fast is it on 5G?

The modem supports up to 4.67 Gbps on Sub-6 GHz 5G (3GPP Rel-17, NSA and SA), with LTE Cat 20 download fallback. Real-world speeds depend on your carrier and signal; dual TS-9 ports let you add external antennas in weak-coverage areas.

Does it take a SIM card, an eSIM or both?

Both: two nano SIM slots plus an onboard eSIM chipset, with dual SIM dual standby. You can toggle between SIM and eSIM on the touchscreen and switch carriers without swapping cards — useful for keeping a UK SIM and a local data plan live at once.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 13.5 hours from the 5,380 mAh battery. It recharges over 24W PD fast charging, and the router can also run without its battery on direct power — handy for permanent installs.

How fast is the VPN?

Up to 700 Mbps on OpenVPN-DCO and 600 Mbps on WireGuard. You can connect to a commercial VPN or your own GL.iNet-hosted VPN server at home, so your traffic stays encrypted on hotel and public networks.

Can it feed wired devices too?

Yes. The 2.5G WAN/LAN Ethernet port takes a wired connection or feeds one to a laptop, switch or access point, and the 10 Gbps USB-C port supports USB tethering and OTG. Beta testers have run dozens of devices, PoE cameras and a printer through one unit on battery alone.
