Mascom International stocks the Cudy LT400 at KSh 5,800, a 4G LTE Cat 4 router that takes a nano SIM and shares the connection over N300 Wi-Fi and four Ethernet ports. The Cudy LT400 downloads at up to 150 Mbps on the network side, depending on signal and your provider, and supports WPA3 security, VPN connections and SMS from its app. Each unit is brand new and sealed, with the power adapter and an Ethernet cable in the box. Come and see the Cudy LT400 at our Kimathi Street shop in Old Mutual Building, Nairobi CBD, where our team can set it up with your line.
Designed for homes and businesses beyond the fibre map, the Cudy LT400 handles everyday browsing, streaming and video calls from a mobile data line. Families in Ruiru, Kitengela and Ngong often wait months for a fibre crew, or live on roads where none is planned. Slot a Safaricom, Airtel Kenya or Telkom SIM into the Cudy LT400, plug it in, and every phone, laptop and TV in the house shares one data bundle. Site offices, NGO field bases, rural clinics and small shops in upcountry towns use it the same way. Its Ethernet ports also connect a desktop, printer or CCTV recorder by cable.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell locked network-branded routers, Mascom International offers the Cudy LT400 unlocked, so you can switch to whichever provider has the strongest signal at your location. At Mascom International, we're seeing steady demand from contractors who move the Cudy LT400 from one project site to the next. Buyers throughout Kenya also like that it runs WireGuard and OpenVPN for remote access to cameras and office files. Visit our Nairobi CBD shop to test it with your own SIM, or order on WhatsApp and pay on delivery.
Common Questions About the Cudy LT400
What is the Cudy LT400 4G router price in Kenya?
The Cudy LT400 is KSh 5,800 at Mascom International, Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. That figure includes the 12V power adapter, an Ethernet cable and a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. You supply your own nano SIM and data bundle from Safaricom, Airtel Kenya or Telkom. Delivery is pay-on-arrival anywhere in Kenya. Spend KSh 500 more and the Cudy MF4 gives you a battery-powered pocket hotspot, though it trades away the Ethernet ports and the external antennas.
Does the Cudy LT400 work with Safaricom, Airtel Kenya and Telkom SIM cards?
Yes, the Cudy LT400 is unlocked and accepts nano SIM cards from Safaricom, Airtel Kenya and Telkom. The European-region version lists LTE bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20 and 28, plus TDD bands 38, 40 and 41. That covers bands 3 and 8, which carry most Kenyan 4G traffic, as well as 20 and 28. It falls back to 3G on bands 1, 5 and 8 where 4G is weak. Move the SIM between providers freely to find the best signal at your site.
What happens to the Cudy LT400 during a KPLC power cut?
The Cudy LT400 runs on mains power through a 12V 1A adapter and has no internal battery, so it switches off when KPLC power goes. Your phones keep their own mobile data, but everything on the router's Wi-Fi and cable ports drops until power returns. A 12V DC mini UPS made for routers, or a small UPS, bridges typical outages, and the router's low power draw stretches the backup. If you need internet while moving around, the battery-powered Cudy MF4 suits that better.
Should I choose the Cudy LT400 or the Cudy MF4 pocket Wi-Fi?
Pick the Cudy LT400 for a fixed home, office or site base, and the Cudy MF4 for internet that travels with you. The Cudy LT400 at KSh 5,800 has 300 Mbps Wi-Fi, four Ethernet ports, external antennas and VPN support, but needs mains power. The Cudy MF4 at KSh 6,300 runs up to 7 hours on battery, fits a pocket and supports 10 devices over 150 Mbps Wi-Fi. Households pick the router; field officers on matatu routes pick the MF4.
How fast is the Cudy LT400 on Kenyan 4G networks?
The Cudy LT400 is a Cat 4 device rated for up to 150 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload. Actual speed depends on how close you are to a tower, how busy that tower is and the provider you choose. In many Nairobi suburbs that is plenty for HD streaming, Zoom and Teams calls at once. Its two external antennas help pick up a weaker signal than a phone would manage indoors. Placing it near a window facing the nearest mast usually gives the best result.
Can I connect CCTV, a desktop and a printer to the Cudy LT400 by cable?
Yes, the Cudy LT400 has four 10/100 Ethernet ports, one of which can switch to WAN for a fixed line. A CCTV recorder, a desktop PC and a network printer can all sit on cables while phones use Wi-Fi. With the built-in VPN server, using WireGuard, OpenVPN or ZeroTier, you can view those cameras securely from elsewhere. Need more wired ports? Add the Cudy GS105 switch at KSh 2,500 or the Cudy FS105D at KSh 1,700.
Who should buy the Cudy LT400 and who should skip it?
Buy the Cudy LT400 if your home, shop or site office has no fibre and you want several devices sharing one SIM. Landlords outfitting rentals in Kitengela and contractors running temporary offices are typical buyers. Skip it if fibre already reaches your door, because a fibre line plus the Cudy WR1300 mesh router at KSh 5,500 delivers steadier speed. Skip it too if you need internet on the road; the battery-powered Cudy MF4 serves travellers better than any mains-only box.
Can I check my data balance and read SMS on the Cudy LT400?
Yes, the Cudy LT400 can send and receive SMS through its web page and the Cudy app. That matters because Safaricom, Airtel Kenya and Telkom send bundle balances, expiry notices and promotions by text. You can read those messages without pulling the SIM out and putting it in a phone. The same app shows signal status and connected devices, and lets you change the Wi-Fi password from your phone. Office managers find it handy for spotting heavy users before a bundle runs out.
