What it contributes to the stream
This part alone, with every other slot assumed generous and a platform that allows the tier. Your build's real verdict is the lowest ceiling across all its slots, which is what the configurator computes. Conservative planning budgets, not measurements: methodology.
Our take on the Cudy P5 5G Router
The Cudy P5 is a 5G router with Wi-Fi 6 and two SIM slots, for streamers who want a home or van connection with a backup carrier. At a tracked $349.99 it sits at the low end of its $349.99 to $449.99 range across nine points from August 25 to October 19, 2026.
The listing gives a Qualcomm X62 modem rated up to 3.4Gbps, AX3000 Wi-Fi, and four detachable antennas that can be swapped for larger ones. Triple failover can switch between wired and the two cellular links. It has four Gigabit ports. It has no battery in the listing, so it needs wall power. It has 4.3 across 520 retailer ratings.
