Yes, RUT2xx, RUT9xx and RUTXxx device series supports Zerotier VPN, for which public IP address is not necessary. Can you use Wireless and LTE at the same time? You can use WiFi and Mobile WAN at the same time with Load Balancing feature. Does RUTX10 support dual band WiFi? Yes, both RUTX10 and RUTX11 devices support Dual Band WiFi (2.4 and 5 GHz). How can we create GRE tunnel by using Dynamic IP? What kind of IP SIM cards usually have? Plain GRE protocol is meant to be used with Public Static IP addresses. If your devices have Public dynamic IP addresses, you can use other VPN protocols. What is the WiFi range of Teltonika’s devices? Up to 100 meters in Line of Sight, up to 25 meters in buildings. Is RMS secure? How data is transferred from a device to RMS server? Does it support authentication methods? We have article , which explains how communication with RMS is happening. Does Teltonika’s devices support Stateful and NGF firewall features? Teltonika devices support Stateful firewall. NGF is not supported. Can Mobile data limit be configured over the air via RMS? Yes. Through RMS you can connect to device directly and make desired changes on the device. You can send full device’s configuration (backup archive) through RMS to multiple devices at once. Is it possible to pre-configure the router via RMS, while the device itself is being shipped to the remote worker? You can prepare desired device configuration and initiate its upload via RMS to the device. When particular device will be powered on, it will automatically download and apply its new configuration from RMS. RUT955 supports two SIM cards. Can it run both of those at the same time? No. In case of RUT955 - Dual SIM functionality is not meant for bonding - it has 1 LTE modem and switches service between two SIM cards according to multiple configurable scenarios. Can you use a printer over VPN? Yes you can. Does RUT device series support PPTP/L2TP VPN with Windows PC Yes. All Teltonika devices, which support appropriate VPN protocol, can establish PPTP or L2TP over IPsec connection with Windows computer. We also have configuration guides for various devices at out Wiki page. What is the internet speed difference between CAT4 and CAT 6? LTE Cat 4 modules offer mobile speeds up to 150 Mbps, while LTE Cat 6 can deliver speeds up to 300 Mbps. What is OpenVPN and how to configure it on Teltonika device? OpenVPN is an open-source software that is used for creating secure point-to-point or site-to-site connections in routed or bridged configurations and remote access facilities. You can find various configuration examples at Teltonika Wiki . Which Teltonika devices can manage bandwidth? RUT2xx and RUT9xx devices have QoS feature, which allows to set up bandwidth limits for specified network interfaces. Additionality, Teltonika devices with WiFi support can control hotspot client bandwidth. Do you provide fail-safe-relay between WAN and LAN just in case RUTX is powered down so that you would not lose all connectivity? Teltonika devices do not have integrated batteries. Nonetheless, you can use third party UPS to maintain router powered on, when main power source will be lost. Any plans to add PoE output on router? At this moment we are not planning to have router, which would be able to supply PoE. Instead we have plans to launch a switch, which would be able to power other devices through PoE. Can I use RUTX10 as industrial WiFi client? Yes Please share a solution for solar panel monitoring. You can find this use case here Where can we find a recording of the previous webinar on RMS? You can find it here . Do you sell products which would support 5G? We will, nowadays, there is more marketing hype regarding 5G rather than real business. We are actively testing and developing the technology and waiting for the right moment. IoT and professional applications will utilize 4G LTE - different categories for many years to come (Cat6; Cat1; Cat M1; NB-IoT and so on) When do you expect the 5G model to be available? Hi there, no commercial 5G device yet, but we are closely monitoring the situation. The state with 5G is interesting - lots of marketing hype but not a lot of business is going to happen with it especially with industrial and IoT applications where we do most of our work. However, we know that 5G is important part of the future so we do have significant RnD resources assigned there - we will launch once we see commercial sense from the perspective of demand and cost ratio. Will your upcoming 5G devices support CBRS? Currently it is too early to comment on this. When we will be developing device with 5G support, we would be able to provide more information regarding this topic. Can you use RMS for free? It is free with every Teltonika Networks router or gateway for 30 days. After it is paid service, logic is very simple, you need for 1 router, 1 credit per month. Do you sell industrial or outdoor devices? Regarding Outdoor products we are considering them. However, most of our clients require very different things from Outdoor units, therefore we see that all of them choose to use different enclosures (plastic/metal/anti-vandal/hermetic) where they mount there solutions along with our products. A great accessory to use in this case if such form factor antennas ! How many devices we can connect to a router? Can it deliver the same speed to all clients? It depends on the model. If we consider WiFi concurrent connections we can connect a lot of devices: for example with RUT240 - you can have stable service via WiFi to up to 50 users at any time. If we take RUT950 as an example - it can support up to 100 concurrent WiFi connections. You can check all that in our product feature pages .

Join us for half an hour introduction of new compact LTE Cat 6 router and L2 unmanaged switch. Learn how these two different products could empower your business and hear about real-life usage scenarios with presented topologies. SPEAKERS Questions & Answers This switch is having 4+1 ports, are all LAN ports or is there also an WAN port with additional features? All TSW110 switch ports are equal and there is no dedicated WAN port So the main features are temperature range and branding? :D Environmental conditions, size, wide input voltage range, branding this switch was managed/unmanaged TSW110 is unmanaged switch is it 48V poe ? TSW110 can be power via LAN1 with passive PoE in 9 – 30 VDC range. 802.3af/at/bt is not supported any SNMP or similar remote status monitor TSW110 is unmanaged switch, so it do not have any remote monitoring options why is that 1 port is separated by design? is there anything special on that port? LAN1 port can be used to power TSW110 with passive PoE We require 500 Nos. 2 FO+2 CU port switch did you have all are manage giga port We do not have a product like this We are looking for a switch to use on a 12V supply to power cctv camera which needs 48V poe We do not have a product like this Would you like to share the main differences between TSW100 and TSW110? The main difference is that TSW100 is with PoE+ capabilities and TSW110 is not. Everything else is the same, that they are both are unmanaged switches. is this switch managed by RMS TSW110 is unmanaged switch and it can't be manged via RMS Why don't you use a Molex Power connector instead of the standard connectro you use also for routers? In Industrial switches word molex is the most used.. Hi Matteo, in fact for our future products we are reviewing our power connector design, however you must appreciate that these changes take time and we want to offer the best mix between product price/connector reliability and offer compatible and reliable power supply units. In short - we are working on it and you should see results in the upcoming devices this year. Is there any reason why the RUT 360 isn't 5G ready? Of course :-) It's price and demand. Everybody wants 5G but not at the price that is currently limited by high component cost. Once it becomes more popular - the prices will reduce and it will make full commercial sense. When we can expect for the same device as RUT360, but with Gb ports? For this reason we have RUTX11 device Does RUT360 replace RUT240? Not at all, it just adds additional options for our partners choosing the most suitable device for their solutions. We believe RUT240 will keep it's lead as the bestselling router for the forseeable future. according to my information, there is currently no 5g router from teltonika. are you planning such a device in the foreseeable future? Yes, we are planning 5G router. When we will have information about it we will let everybody know. Is there a power connector adaptor to wire directly to a wiring loom in a product, i.e. 2x single core wires for + and -. Yes, Teltonika Networks provides cable with open ends Power Cable 4way I represent a company and we have already bought more than 200 RUT240 routers. RUT240 has input/output functionality but the router package have a power cable with 2 cables and so the I/O pins cannot be used. Also the power adaptor is useless to an industrial machine, as we get power directly from our own DC power supply. We are forced to buy a separate 4 cables power cable inorder to use the I/O pins and throw away the standard power cable. Is there an option to get the router with the 4 cables power built-in? Dear Ioannis, this is quite well known issue, due to it we have worked on a custom accessory that will offer reliabble 4-pin connector design on one end and additional I/O terminal on another, so you can utilize I/O without additional tinkering. It should be available next week, so please take a look at our accessory page in upcoming days - Accesories Page Can the LAN port be changed to WAN port as in the rutx11? Yes it can be changed as all our routers have this feature. Please check our wiki or contact your sales manager or contact us. Can we intstal the dinrail mondting plate into the side of the device? Yes you can do it with almost all our devices! What is the power consumption of this RUT360? Check this link: RUT360 Power Consumption does it have two sim slots No, for 2 SIM Cat6 option you should look at RUTX11 is CAT6 the only difference between the RUT240? RUT360 uses new CPU, has 128 MB of RAM, 2X2 MIMO WiFi, and full aluminium casing Can we expect a 5Ghz (dual band) Wifi in the near future on this device ? Our RUTX11 which is currently available offers combination of LTE Cat 6 and AC WiFi (2.4 Ghz + 5Ghz) Will there be outdoor cases and PoE funcionality? We are preparing outdoor router with PoE funcionality in the near future! Does the RUT360 support Volte, you mentioned it can be used in elevators. It support VoLTE, but further features depends on your needs I need the server connected in the lan port to communicate at the same time on both wan (where there is internet) and 4G where there is an M2M card (intenal ip which communicates with field equipment) RUT360 has load balancing functionality, which allows to split traffic between different interface. Contact your sales representative or create HelpDesk query for more information Does RUT360 have sleep mode or standby? In case of using not fluent dataflow and have only battery supply No, RUT360 does not have sleep mode can I then aggregate 2 wan links and the cellular? RUT360 does not have WAN bonding functionality. Is supported SNMPv3? Yes, RUT360 is using RUTOS and as other Teltonika Networks device it will support SNMPv3 it can be that the 2 ports wan and mobile to work at the same time not in balanced mode No Does the RUT360 support 450 MHz?

  • WE HAVE IMPROVED RUTOS WITH NEW FEATURES!

    We invite you to have a look at what we have been working on lately and how these new functionalities can ease up your daily business activities and generally make your life more convenient. More News 1/28/2026 Meet Altos: The Wi-Fi 7 Router Invited to Your Living Room 1/21/2026 Managed vs unmanaged switches: choose the right fit 1/20/2026 Password Security Standards – Best Practices to Protect your Devices WE HAVE IMPROVED RUTOS WITH NEW FEATURES! 6 October 2020 We keep on saying this, and we cannot stress this enough, how important it is for us to keep on improving and adding value to our software based on the feedback we get from our clients. We invite you to have a look at what we have been working on lately and how these new functionalities can ease up your daily business activities and generally make your life more convenient. This time we have added some new exciting features to RutOS that will mainly affect RUTX and TRB2 series devices. DLNA We have improved the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) for RUTX family routers by adding media service to the package manager. It means that now you can stream your content from the local storage directly to digital signage outlets, TVs or other DLNA-capable devices, even when they do not have a media player installed. This feature was requested by one of our clients to be used for advertising in kiosks. The router streams the same ads straight to digital signage screens in hundreds of locations without the need to purchase any additional software. NEW USB TOOLS Now you may expand the flash memory of your RUTX family routers via USB mass storage device. This may come in handy if you wish to add additional programming languages. Some of our clients wish to use their own applications, which we do not normally support, and they need additional flash memory to be able to install them. This functionality does not only provide extra space for the content, but it virtually expands the flash memory of the device. Another great feature you will be able to enjoy on RUTX devices is the support of externally attachable USB to Serial adapter. Now you may convert USB data signals to industrial RS232 and RS485 serial data even if the router originally does not support this functionality. One of our top-selling routers – RUT955 – is so popular because it has a wide range of compatible interfaces. While our clients appreciated the speed and performance of the RUTX devices, they could not connect them to the legacy devices via RS232/485 interfaces and having this new functionality will open a wide aray of new possibilities for the application of RUTX family routers. USSD SUPPORT With the new firmware update, our cellular routers support Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD). It is a protocol meant for communication between cellular devices and mobile network operators, usually used with prepaid SIM cards to enable or disable certain services or to obtain information from a network operator. It may come in handy for checking your account balance, data charges and menu-based information services, like IMEI number and changing pin codes. ADDITIONAL VPN SERVICES Protecting online privacy and maintaining data security has always been at the top of our priority list. We have expanded VPN services offering for TRB2 family gateways by adding highly-reliable and widely recognized Stunnel, SSTP and DMVPN options. Stunnel is an open-source a proxy service that adds TLS encryption to clients and servers already existing on a VPN network. TLS encryption provided by Stunnel can be used as an additional layer of encryption for data sent by VPN. This procedure increases the security of the established connection and provides higher chances of passing a Deep packet inspection (DPI) check. Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) is a VPN protocol designed to transport PPP traffic via a secure SSL/TLS channel. Although it is meant mainly for Windows, it can be used with other operating systems too. It creates a single HTTPS tunnel from client to server and keepts the traffic encrypted at all times. DMVPN allows branch locations to communicate directly with each other over the public WAN or Internet, such as when using voice over IP (VOIP) between two branch offices, but doesn’t require a permanent VPN connection between sites. It enables zero-touch deployment of IPsec VPNs and improves network performance by reducing latency and jitter, while optimizing head office bandwidth utilization. TIME SYNCHRONIZATION Historically, Teltonika Networks routers used Network Time Protocol (NTP) for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. In RutOS, the users are provided with four default time servers, but custom ones can be added too, as per the clients' needs. Our products may act as both: NTP Client and NTP Server, meaning that they are also capable of providing clock synchronization to the other devices in the network. From now on this feature will be also available to TRB2 series gateways. This is a very important feature for clients who are using limited data plans. For example, one of our clients in the transportation sector had a problem when they were reaching the data limits for the month and therefore turning off the devices to avoid extra charges, after turning them back on – the gateways could not detect the time. Now that they can synchronize time via GPS and via operator, there is no need to use data to achieve this task. WI-FI SCANNER WiFi Scanner allows to detect and send nearby non sensitive WiFi devices data. This enables to measure the number of nearby devices using WiFi and send the data to the server. This provides information on the distribution of wireless networks and choose the best option based on availability and better connection speed. One of the application scenarios is event management. The organizer gets the coordinates from the router where the people gather and efficiently allocates the staff into relevant sectors. All these features will be available to the specified devices only with the new firmware RUTX_R_00.02.05.1. You may download it from our RutOS Firmware Download page. LIKE THIS STORY?

  • Energy Optimisation with Teltonika Networks Ethernet Switches

    Read this article to know how Teltonika Networks Ethernet switches can significantly improve the way renewable energy generation is managed. More News 1/28/2026 Meet Altos: The Wi-Fi 7 Router Invited to Your Living Room 1/21/2026 Managed vs unmanaged switches: choose the right fit 1/20/2026 Password Security Standards – Best Practices to Protect your Devices Energy Optimisation with Teltonika Networks Ethernet Switches 1 May 2024 The process of shifting energy generation to renewable sources, such as solar power, is underway, though it necessitates the integration of IoT and network connectivity. Teltonika Networks Ethernet switches can be your best decision when it comes to Internet distribution to the endpoints of your solution, but this begs the question: should you opt for unmanaged or managed switches? The global energy crisis has reached its all-time high . With figures of increased prices , unpredictable weather conditions, and political divisions escalating exponentially since 2021, every energy company reliant on oil, gas, or coal for power generation faces a critical question: what should it do? THE UNIVERSAL CHALLENGE THAT ENERGY COMPANIES FACE Although nuances and exceptions exist within the energy sector, the vast majority of companies involved face similar significant challenges , including deteriorating infrastructure, overconsumption, and energy waste. This is why a shift toward renewable energy sources such as solar panels is accelerating, with a focus on gaining more comprehensive control over the energy production process. This new approach towards energy generation and management enables companies to offer a much more sustainable and effective alternative for a reliable and ongoing energy supply, taking into account individual needs and power consumption habits. This is where the implementation of IoT is inevitable. ENERGY SECTOR + IOT = THE INEVITABLE FUTURE IoT solutions are known for being well thought out in order to maximise their potential across varying domains, including the energy sector . But how so? IoT provides an array of tools and technologies that improve the ways energy companies boost their operational efficiency, reliability, and optimisation. This is particularly evident as companies shift their infrastructure from traditional fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. However, given IoT solutions’ critical dependence on the Internet, devices that equip them with connectivity and its distribution, like Ethernet switches, are crucial to pay attention to. Otherwise, investing in unreliable devices might increase operational risks and potential energy facility downtime, jeopardising the energy infrastructure’s stability and security. Ultimately, this oversight could result in even greater costs. Unreliable or low-quality networking devices can increase the risk of prolonged connectivity disruptions, leading to a significant loss of valuable data that is necessary for informed decision-making. This situation results in businesses being unable to adhere to service level agreements (SLAs), as they no longer have proof of uninterrupted site operation. Consequently, these businesses may become less profitable, especially in the context of long-term contracts. LET ETHERNET SWITCHES BE IN YOUR FAVOUR Teltonika Networks offers an array of trustworthy routers , modems, and gateways that lead to uninterrupted network connectivity. However, our Ethernet switches deserve just as much emphasis when considering the network distribution and the scaling of IoT solutions meant to improve energy optimisation. Teltonika Networks Ethernet switches have been designed to be affordable while delivering the highest quality made to last a long time, even in the most challenging environments. Now, depending on your needs, you might require unmanaged or managed switches. If you’re still unsure which to choose, the Magic and Power Behind Ethernet Switches article presents which type of device might be a better fit for your solution. But to keep it short and simple, it essentially boils down to the complexity of your network infrastructure as well as whether you need remote management and granular control. WHERE UNMANAGED SWITCHES THRIVE Unmanaged switches are plug-and-play and don’t require any configurations to run. In fact, their primary objective is to extend Internet support to a bigger number of devices within IoT solutions. This is why unmanaged switches, like our TSW200 and TSW210 , are typically employed in simple networking environments. The necessity for merely Internet connectivity often prevails in small-scale solar panel energy installations or off-grid solar systems, where access and control of endpoints isn’t necessary. Additionally, unmanaged switches are often the go-to option for cases when budget constraints are a significant consideration, as such switches are most commonly cheaper than managed switches. A great example of employing an unmanaged switch in a similar environment can be seen in the Ethernet Switch for Solar Farms & Solar Energy Solutions use case. Here, the Teltonika Networks TSW210 Ethernet switch is deployed to provide network connectivity to all solar panels while enabling the transmission of data to a remote monitoring centre. This way, the 8-port switch helps to ensure that the solar farm’s operational efficiency is maintained consistently. WHAT ABOUT MANAGED SWITCHES? The advantages of solar energy are evident, leading to the growing integration of complex, large-scale solar systems. And while this sounds promising, it faces greater challenges over strong network connectivity support and is more often than not in need of granular management of each component within the system’s network. This need stems from the fact that larger solar panel farms are employed to supply energy to critical infrastructures, where an unreliable power supply and potential outages could result in significant financial losses or even pose a risk to human lives . Therefore, in situations where operational efficiency is paramount, a network infrastructure that ensures strong connectivity and granular management is key. This is where managed switches play a significant role. Managed 8-port switches, such as the TSW202 and TSW212 , are extremely relevant in the context of large-scale renewable energy farms, offering advanced management capabilities for every system endpoint. Such Ethernet switches enable advanced control over aspects like network segmentation and VLAN establishment. This greatly enhances how Internet support and data transmission from endpoints, like solar panels, to the network’s management control centre, is handled. Managed switches enable you to prioritise from which endpoint you’ll be receiving information first and facilitate connectivity redundancy. This means that in the event of an accident leading to one switch’s failure, another managed switch can seamlessly take over its endpoints, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity. In terms of managed switches for smart grid implementation, the TSW202 and TSW212 switches’ superiority becomes even more evident.

    Teltonika Networks has launched the new RUT140 Ethernet router and RUT142 RS232 router. Click here to learn more. More News 1/28/2026 Meet Altos: The Wi-Fi 7 Router Invited to Your Living Room 1/21/2026 Managed vs unmanaged switches: choose the right fit 1/20/2026 Password Security Standards – Best Practices to Protect your Devices Introducing the new RUT140 Ethernet and RUT142 RS232 routers 10 April 2024 For diverse operational areas with different security requirements in industrial manufacturing facilities, we’re presenting you the newest members of the Teltonika Networks device family. Please have a warm welcome to the RUT140 Ethernet router and RUT142 RS232 router – ideal for isolating critical systems and optimising data flow. Imagine a typical manufacturing company with different manufacturing facilities, separate sectors, and many employees within them. Industrial networks often deal with critical infrastructure and manufacturing processes that contain sensitive data. In a case like this, networking segmentation is needed for enhancing network security. Also, there are industrial cases involving legacy devices with the RS232 interface. This type of devices needs a compatible connectivity device with an RS232 interface for network segmentation to be possible. Solving these kinds of industrial cases now became way easier with the new RUT140 Ethernet router and RUT142 RS232 router! ENHANCED NETWORK SAFETY WITH RUT140 AND RUT142 The RUT140 Ethernet router and RUT142 RS232 router contain many great features, especially useful in an industrial environment. With an integrated Network Address Translation (NAT) functionality, they serve as boundary devices – creating isolated networks within existing network infrastructure. One of the many benefits of these new Ethernet and RS232 routers is enhanced security. By connecting different facilities and each production line to individual RUT140 or RUT142 routers, organisations can reduce the risk of potential security breaches. Network segmentation done by our routers enable efficient communication between quality control systems and production lines while maintaining data integrity and security. Additionally, connecting administrative offices to a separate network segment ensures secure access to business applications, email servers, and Internet resources. Segregating administrative traffic from industrial traffic reduces the risk of unauthorised access or malware infiltration into critical production systems. These RS232 and Ethernet routers are specifically designed for industrial facilities. Their 3-pin power connector offers a practical solution for connecting power and grounding leads in industrial applications, while an integrated DIN rail allows for effortless installation of the router within the control box. Moreover, these industrial routers feature front-facing ports for convenient access to two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports for LAN and WAN, and an antenna that can be effortlessly plugged into the front of the device. FLAWLESS FOR ON-SITE AND REMOTE USE Is your industrial solution located at a remote place, making travel time for engineers unnecessarily long? Wouldn't it be better if most issues could be fixed remotely? Well, that’s great, since our RUT140 Ethernet router and RUT140 RS232 router are perfect for both on-site and remote management. They’re equipped with Wi-Fi 4, allowing engineers to effortlessly monitor it from within a distance. The Wi-Fi module also allows wireless connection to the routers – eliminating the necessity to access the control cabinet. As a result, on-site maintenance becomes more convenient and efficient. The new RUT140 and RUT142 are compatible with our Remote Management System ( RMS ), which allows for remote management, granting engineers access to fix any connectivity issues remotely. MORE GREAT FEATURES OF THE RUT140 AND RUT142 If you thought that the great features of our new Ethernet and RS232 routers end here, you couldn’t be more wrong! To make an industrial facility even more efficient, these connected devices feature integrated RutOS and industrial protocols, including Modbus, DLMS, DNP3, and OPC UA .
