1. Download and unzip the file from here.
2. Download the latest firmware from the official website and rename it to 'recovery.bin'. Note: You must put it in the same file of Tftpd tools.
3. Power off your Router. Unplug the power adapter or press the POWER button.
4. Connect your computer the Router's LAN port with an Ethernet cable.
5. Configure your computer's IP address to be '192.168.1.88' manually.
6. Run 'tftp32.exe'.
7. Run 'netsh advfirewall set allprofiles state off' in the command line to disable Windows firewall, otherwise tftp will be blocked. Or you can disable the firewall on the Control Panel of your computer. As shown below.
8. Press the 'Reset' button/hole and hold it. Before the Router is powered on and before tftp start to download the firmware, don't release the 'Reset' button/hole.
9. Power on the Router.
10. When the Lights are all flashing fast, or when tftp start to download the firmware, you can release the 'Reset' button/hole.
11. When the light flashes slowly, the upgrade is complete.
12. Please recover your computer's IP address to be dynamic IP.
13. Done.

@Dear Alan,

“Thank you for your response. However, it did not resolve my issues.
Currently, my TR3000-256MB router when in a normal boot state. After plugging in the power cable, the red and white LEDs keep flashing, and my computer’s LAN connection is continuously going on and off. I attempted to set a static IP address of 192.168.1.2 on my computer, but I cannot ping or connect to the router’s webpage at 192.168.1.1.
When I try to use TFTP, the router does not respond to my computer’s IP (192.168.1.88), but it does respond to 192.168.1.2. After sending the recovery.bin file (downloaded from the mainland webpage: TR3000_256MB_Flash-R103-2.3.9-20250208-171917-sysupgrade.bin) to the router, it does not reboot on its own, and the LEDs continue to flash red and white.
The loop is continuous. Am I flashing the correct file? Is there any other way to restore the factory firmware?"

@Dear Alan,
The LAN IP address will be changed from 192.168.10.1 to 192.168.1.1 after firmware update. You need to set the IP address to DHCP to get the IP address from the router.
You need to connect your computer to the LAN port of the router. Then try to login to the web page of the router via the IP address 192.168.1.1.
“Hi, I want to flash my TR300-256Mb router to OpenWrt, but after using the “cudy_tr3000-256mb-v1-sysupgrade.bin” file, it doesn’t display any pages upon reboot. The red and white LEDs keep flashing. I attempted to use TFTP for recovery, but unfortunately, I can’t revert to the original firmware. The same LED signal persists.
So, What can I do?”

So, What can I do?
Figured out my problem – I was using a long cellphone SIM tray removal tool, and at that angle, it was slipping off the reset button and I did not realize it.
Use my smallest allen key that I could put a lot better pressure on and with worked perfectly, on 2 different WR3000Hs.
Also, downloaded the latest version of the 64-bit tftpd and tested, and it still works perfectly fine, too.
Once I got it to work, I see also that it is very fast – took no more than maybe 2 minutes from start to fully usable Cudy interface.
Thanks!
