WISP Mode:
In WISP mode, the router allows multiple users to share the internet connection from WISP. The LAN port devices share the same IP from the WISP via the wireless port in this manner. When connected to WISP, the wireless port functions as a WAN port.
Common network topology:
Step 1: Open a web browser and go to http://cudy.net or http://192.168.10.1.
For details, please refer to How to log into the web interface of Cudy Router?
Step 2: The Quick Setup window will pop up, choose "WISP", then go "Next".
Step 3: Choose your "Time Zone".
Step 4: Select the host network you want to extend. Click on 'Connect'.
Or click on General Settings->WISP->Enable and then select the host network you want to extend.
Step 5: Enter the host network's wireless password.
Note: Make sure the wireless password you type in is correct, otherwise, the configuration cannot success.
Step 6: Customize the wireless network name and password or keep them default.
Step 7: Click "Save & Apply" to complete the configuration.
Step 8: Wait a few seconds for the system rebooting, when the login page pops up again, you can enjoy the internet.

Dear Support,
Could you please be so kind and send me BETA FW with WISP support for WR3600E for my own risk?
Thanks,

@Dear Kyle,
If you enable both WAN connection and WISP connection. The WAN connection will be main connection. The WISP connection will be a backup. So if you want to switch to WAN connection. You don’t need to disable WISP. But if you want to switch to WISP connection. You need to disable WAN or disconnect from the internet.
“I have an AX3000 router which needs to work in both WISP mode and with direct Ethernet port connection due to local conditions. It works with both setups if I manully change the configuration and reboot the router. My question is whether I need to enable/disable WISP when switching back and forth or will the router automatically switch if I leave WISP enabled and subsequently connect with cable to our local Ethernet network via the WAN port. My tests trying this have been inconsistent and I can’t verify it is the router or the local network configuration.”

@Dear Paulo,
We have plan to add this function on next firmware 2.5.×. In addition, you need to the backhaul Wi-Fi connection will use the same channel as you set on the main Wi-Fi, can’t be changed.
“WR11000 does no allow yet to change the wifi channel manually. in WISP or wireless extender. When do you expect to make available the firmware correction?”
