How to Recovery the Cudy Router From OpenWRT Firmware to Cudy Official Firmware?

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.

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.

@Уважаемый Николай,
Извините, но мы не знаем, как это сделать. Может быть, вам стоит обратиться к разработчикам Kinetic с этим вопросом?

“Здравствуйте роутер wr3000p v1. Прошил на прошивку от kinetic не сделав бэкапы разделов, теперь не могу восстановить прошивку на официальную, так как изменилась вся таблица разделов, помогите сделать откат на сток.”

@Dear Ayush Thapa,
You are the best. Thank you for your kindly help.

“Great guide! This tutorial was very helpful for users recovering their Cudy routers using Windows.

However, many users who use macOS may find it difficult because the tools and steps are different from Windows. I recently faced this situation when I accidentally bricked my Cudy WR3000 while switching firmware from OpenWrt back to the official Cudy firmware."

@Привет, Иван Ред,
Наша служба технической поддержки отправила вам файл uboot по электронной почте. Проверьте, пожалуйста.

“Установлена OpenWrt U-Boot layout (версия OpenWrt 24.10.3 r28872-daca7c049b). Где я могу взять оригинальный uboot?”
