OpenWrt Software Download

Update: December 24,2025 Good news!

The OpenWrt forum has merged the pacth which supports the new Flash F50L1G41LC and update the OpenWrt firmware to the version 24.10.5. So if you download the OpenWrt firmware version 24.10.5 or newer version in the future to update the Cudy related models. There will be no problem.

Important Notice:  November 24, 2025

Cudy AX3000 series routers manufactured starting in November 2025 (TR3000, SN code start with 2543 or later. 2543 in the SN means the 43th week in the year 2025 ) use the new Flash F50L1G41LC.  Upgrading to older versions of OpenWrt intermediate firmware or OpenWrt firmware will prevent the device from booting. Therefore, we will be releasing new firmware updates for these products to add restrictions. If the device is detected to be using the new Flash, it will not be able to upgrade to older firmware versions 2.3.X or earlier. Additionally, previously provided OpenWrt intermediate firmware for older Flash devices will not be compatible.

Affected models include: AP3000 Outdoor 1.0, AP3000 Wall 1.0, M3000 1.0/2.0, TR3000 1.0, WR3000E 1.0, WR3000H 1.0, WR3000S 1.0, and WR3000P 1.0.

Cudy has released the new OpenWrt intermediate firmwares, which have been updated to Google Drive. Please switch to the new intermediate firmware.

Regarding the OpenWrt firmware, we are still waiting for the official OpenWrt forum to release an OpenWrt firmware compatible with the new Flash. Once released, please use the new OpenWrt firmware.

If the SN code is less than 2543. It uses the old flash. There is no such problem.

Warnings

This webpage lists software of devices which support OpenWrt system, before download and install the software, please note that OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Description

  1. This file can only be used when your router works under Cudy web UI.

@Уважаемый Игорь,
Извините за задержку с ответом из-за китайского Нового года!
Наша техническая поддержка отправила вам прошивку по электронной почте. Пожалуйста, проверьте.

“Нет прошивки на AP3000 V1.0. Как можно скачать?”

@Dear nik,
Sorry for replying so late due to the Chinese Spring Festival!The OpenWrt firmware is not developed by Cudy but by the developers. We need the OpenWrt forum official support the router at first, then we can release a middle firmware for you, then you can use and upgrade to the OpenWrt firmware. If you get the OpenWrt firmware for WR1300e 2.0. Please send me the download link.

“Hello, do you have a OpenWrt firmware to remove signature check for wr1300e (v2 i guess)?”

@@Уважаемая Никита,
Извините за поздний ответ из-за китайского Нового года! Прошивка OpenWrt разработана не Cudy, а разработчиками. Нам сначала нужна официальная поддержка маршрутизатора на форуме OpenWrt, после чего мы сможем выпустить промежуточную прошивку, которую вы сможете использовать и обновить до прошивки OpenWrt.

@Dear Andrey
Please refer to this article to recover the router.

“How to recover WR3000P in case of a corrupted bootloader? Which UART-to-USB cables work? How to access the BootROM Download Mode? How to make a full memory dump before experimenting with OpenWrt and how to restore from it? Since you had generously provided guides and firmware for the OpenWrt installation, it would be nice if you made an instruction for the de-bricking. Thank you!”

@Dear Peter,

Did you try to connect your computer to the LAN port of M3000 via ethernet cable. Then you can try to access the web management page via the 192.168.1.1. If you fail, please try to recover the router according the instruction on the website below.

“Hi,
I flashed my Cudy M3000 V1 with the image cudy_m3000-v1-sysupgrade_20251119.bin as described above. After that I can’t access the device anymore, at least not at the ports 22, 80 and 443. But I’m able to ping the device. Is there a description what else to do?”
