Cudy lt18

Post by Art Palm 87 »

Been testing the cudy lt18 and inseego fx2000 and the inseego is 25-30mbps faster download or streaming 4k video all test were done with settings the same anyone might know why? Also tested a suncomm rm520n-gl SDX62 and it's slower then the inseego also. Tested on 4g.

That's what I was thinking but everyone I talk to says the rm520n-gl sdx62 modem is better should be the same speed but isn't

There is much generalization that unfortunately is common. The RM520N-GL is more capable than the others, as far as a gateway modem function is concerned. How it is used in the host system it is in will determine how it compares in performance to other systems.

If you had a Cudy LT18 and swapped the RM520 in place of the EG18 and compared the two (this of course is not possible) then you would have a more direct comparison, but it can't work this way.

The inseego has it's own OS and handles the modem its own way, and has a different antenna profile. The LTE18 also different. The RM520 is not a whole system, so you are really comparing it within the host system, the Suncomm in this case, but which one? The Mediatek version or the qualcomm version? What are you using to test on all systems? WiFi or ethernet? You aren't mixing comparisons are you?

All that said. If your local cell towers aren't giving more than 30-50Mbps, then the comparisons here are 100% the host system, and not the modem within, as all 3 liekly are capable of real world speeds over 400Mbps at a minimum. (Whitepaper lab tested speeds MUCH higher of course).

Also, Which band(s) were you using and are they 100% certain to be on the same tower?

As an aside, the inseego is a good little unit for what it is; a portable little wifi router "hotspot".
