1 For a list of supported modems, please refer to https://www.peplink.com/modem.
2 Recommendation for sizing purposes only. No software restrictions applied.
3 Router Throughput and PepVPN/SpeedFusion Throughput is based on Ethernet frame sizes of 1280 or 1518 bytes. Actual performance can vary across different networking environments. Figures apply to the latest hardware revision.
4 Number of peer Peplink or Pepwave devices you can connect using SpeedFusion VPN.
5 IPsec only supports connection with Cisco, Juniper, Peplink or Pepwave devices.
6 Balance 20/30 LTE/One/210/310 comes with AP Controller Standard, which supports one configuration profile with multiple SSIDs, meaning that all APs will share the same configuration, and you can only manage APs on the local physical LAN. Balance 305/380/580/710/1350/2500 comes with AP Controller Pro, which supports multiple configuration profiles with multiple SSIDs, and you can manage remote APs outside the local physical LAN.
+ Balance 20 and 210 have an extra WAN port which can be activated through license key.
# If the WAN Activation License (BPL-ONE-LC-5WAN) is activated, router throughput will be changed to 400Mbps, both number of WAN and LAN will become 5.
^ PepVPN is supported on all models. SpeedFusion is an optional feature.
& Balance 305 supports 2 SpeedFusion peers. With purchase of SpeedFusion License, the Balance 305 supports up to 20 SpeedFusion peers.
* Balance 2500 are available different configurations. Please refer to ordering information for details.
% Balance 20/30 LTE requires firmware 6.1 to support PepVPN.
