@Luke,
Dear Customer,
Please follow the steps:
1. Connect the one of the WR3000 to connect the modem and connect to the internet. Work as the main mesh router.
2. Reset the other WR3000 to factory default.
3. Connect the WAN port of the second WR3000 to the LAN port of the main mesh router. Then the two router will install mesh system automatically. Then everything works.

“I’d like to setup internet by using 2x cudy wr3000 they will be connected via cable with eachother. One of them will be connected to a ISP modem (Wan port of one cudy router connected to modem), then cudy routers connected with eachother using their lan port. Could you tell me what’s best way to configure such connection? Goal is to have good wifi coverage without ip conflicts and be able to also connect devices by ethernet to those routers”

@Jan,
Our technical support has contacted you via email. Please check.

“Hello,

my modem is connect to a GPON terminal of my ISP via the WAN port.
If I set it up as wireless router, I can connect to it with my phone or laptop, but it does not connect to the internet.
If I try to set it up as an access point, the led diod shows it is connected to the internet, but I cannot connect any device to the router (the WiFi on those devices shows up, but the connection never loads up).
Could you please help me?
Thank you very much.

@Carl,
For now Cudy AP pronduct doesn’t support multiple ssid function. we have plan to develop this feature in near future.

“Can I setup VLANS with multiple ssid wifi?”
