Creating Relays to a Private Network Located Elsewhere

SpeedFusion Relay Mode lets you create a relay between your mobile Peplink router and a private network at a different location - such as at a home residential address using a second Pepwave router/device.

In 2024 Peplink stopped selling their SpeedFusion Relay device (originally called SpeedFusion Home Sharing or SpeedFusion Connect Relay), but the relay functionality lives on.

Using Relay mode on a Pepwave router allows you to configure some (or all) of your SpeedFusion traffic to be routed through this location - appearing to connect to the public internet from the relay's location instead of from a data center where the SpeedFusion servers are located or where your mobile internet service provider's network hit the internet.

In practical terms, this means that you can appear to be connected from a "home" address, no matter where you travel. This can circumvent most streaming geo-blocks or VPN limitations, especially around local TV and sports programming.

Although Relay Mode requires a second Peplink router, you can use a basic non-cellular one like a B One (or the retired SpeedFusion Relay), at the residential address to serve as the relay's output.

This article goes over how to set up a relay using any Peplink router.

SpeedFusion Relay Intro

To learn more about the SpeedFusion Relay and configuration, watch this video provided by our Education & Action partner at MobileMustHave:

Note that this video was filmed using a Peplink SpeedFusion Relay device that was discontinued in November 2024. Peplink and we recommend utilizing the B One router as an alternative. The video still explains the basics of how a relay works.

MobileMustHave also has a basic Knowledge Base article going into further details on how to set up a relay using InControl.
