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.
Note: Only one model is an exception: the TR1200. The WAN port must be connected during firmware recovery. All other models use the LAN port.

He tenido que volver a las versión del Firmware original, ya que en Openwrt al configurar la Wifi 5G en ancho de banda 160 mhz, desparece y no se puede conectar. He hecho muchas pruebas y es cambiarlo a 80 mhz y si funciona. Este problema con el firm de Cudy no pasa. Se queda configurado en 160mhz y todo normal.
@Dear MD RAKIBUL ISLAM,
Yes, you can do it. This method also can recover the broken firmware issue.
“Hi Cudy, Can I follow all of these step to unbrick my Cudy WR1200 V2 which will be bricked due to sudden load shedding during firmware update 🙂? Please help”

@Dear Alan,
Please check if your use the correct firmware. You must use the firmware for TR3000 256MB, which the firmware version on Cudy official website is 2.3.9. Then you can follow the steps as the instruction.
“I am confident that it is the 256MB version because I purchased it from China, and the box, router, label, etc., all indicate “256MB.” However, when I opened the router, I discovered that the chip memory is ESMT F50L1G41LB only 128MB. You can check my post here: [https://www.right.com.cn/forum/thread-8441740-1-1.html] for a screenshot. I also sent this information to sales@cudy.com but haven’t received a reply.”
