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.

- If the router already works under OpenWRT UI, user should restore it to Cudy official firmware first. And then upgrade the router with this firmware.

@Dear Mikhail,
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.
For now, there is no OpenWrt firmware for WR3000 2.0. So there is no need to offer the intermediate firmware.
“Can you please upload openwrt for WR3000 v2?”
@Dear Sergey,

For now, there is no OpenWrt firmware for WR1300E 2.0. So there is no need to offer the intermediate firmware. Do you get the OpenWrt firmware for WR1300E 2.0? If yes, please send it to us for checking.
“Hello.
I can’t find the intermediate firmware for upgrading to OpenWRT for the WR1300E v2.0.
Please help.”
@Dear Luis.
1. You can try to connect the computer to the LAN port of the router. Then set the IP address on your computer to 192.168.1.x 255.255.255.0. Then try to login to the web page of the router via http://192.168.1.1.
2. If still fail, please try to recover the router to Cudy official firmware first. Then update it again. You can refer to this FAQ.

“Hello
The Cudy M3000 openwrt is connected to another router via the WAN port and configured as a dumb access point (wan/wan6 removed, ports added to br-lan, Firewall and DHCP disabled on LAN), but it does not work.
When a PC is connected to a LAN port on the Cudy M3000, it does not receive an IP address. If an IP address is set manually, there is still no internet access.
Please advise what additional configuration is required for the Cudy M3000 to operate correctly as a dumb AP when connected via the WAN port.”
@Dear wiltron,
Sorry, we don’t offer the support for OpenWrt System.
