Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The E50UG is a cost-effective wired router designed for reliable home and small office networks. It includes 5× Gigabit Ethernet ports, a modern dual-core ARM 950 MHz CPU, and 512 MB RAM, which helps it handle routing, firewall rules, VLANs, and QoS more smoothly than older entry models.
The E50UG is the “refresh” version and brings more performance and more RAM. MikroTik highlights major routing/bridging performance gains depending on configuration, plus the RAM increase to 512 MB and a newer ARM platform—making it a better choice if you want more headroom on RouterOS v7.
In many typical setups, yes—especially when using FastPath/FastTrack-friendly configurations. Performance depends heavily on your RouterOS features (queues, heavy mangle rules, complex firewalling, tunneling, etc.). For best results at gigabit speeds, keep the configuration efficient and avoid unnecessary CPU-heavy features.
No. The E50UG is a wired-only router (no wireless radio). If you need Wi-Fi, pair it with a dedicated access point (for example, UniFi or MikroTik APs) for better wireless performance and coverage.
Choose the E50UG if you want a wired router with strong routing features and you already have (or plan to use) separate access points. Choose a Wi-Fi model (like hAP ax2) if you want an all-in-one router with wireless built in. The E50UG + a good AP is usually the better “scalable” setup for performance and coverage.
