2. All Cudy products support mesh technology: Home Mesh-Cudy official website

Main mesh unit: Flash white

Add-on mesh unit: Flash white and red alternately

Step 4: It will go to "Scanning", then " Connecting".

Step 5: Wait until the System LED of the add-on router turns into solid blue, then relocate WR2100.

Step 6: Success and enjoy the mesh network.

Hi, could I create a network, in the following sequence : AP3000, connected via a eth.cable to a non-cudy router . Router is connected via cable to WAN

After this proves to be stable I want to extend and create a mesh with 3 M3000 , all wireless.

Can the M3000 come off the AP3000, and if so how to set up and pair?
Thanks for your help

@Dear Andy,
Yes, support. You can install mesh system with them.

“Are m3000 (ax3000) mesh unit compatible with later (BE11000 for example) mesh routers?”

@Dear Tom,
1. Please reset the M1800 to factory default by long pressing the reset button for about 3 seconds. You can release the reset button when the LED flashes.
2. Connect the port 1 of M1800 to the port 2 of M3000. Wait about 1~2 minutes. Then check if the mesh system is installed automatically.

“Try to use an m1800v1 as mesh client in mesh with mesh master m3000v1 with latest firmware. Don´t get them connected. What do i have to do?”
