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
- This file can only be used when your router works under Cudy web UI.
- 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.
- How to restore the router to Cudy official firmware? Please read the readme in the file downloaded.

Hello Cudy team!
As many others did already, I am requesting instructions for unlocking / removing signature in order to flash OpenWrt on my AP3000 v1. Thanks!
Hi, can I hava Openwrt firmware for cudy ap3000 v1 (not outdoor), please?
thank you,
Mikas
I don’t see an OpenWRT firmware for the AP3000 v1, I’ve attempted to use the firmware from OpenWRT directly, but it appears that they will not load due to missing signature. Any assistance is appreciated.
@Dear Kamil,
I think the firmware you downloaded is correct. Or you can’t upload it. So I suggest you to check if your computer’s IP address is obtained via DHCP? If not, please set it to DHCP. Because the manage IP address has been changed from 192.168.10.1 to 192.168.1.1. You need to login the web page of the router via new IP address.
“Hello Support Team,
I hope you’re doing well. I am experiencing an issue with my Cudy WR3000E router when attempting to upload a firmware file via the web interface:
Firmware Source: I downloaded the firmware file from a Google Drive link.
Upload Method: Web management interface, Firmware Upgrade section.
Problem: After the upload completes, the router becomes completely unresponsive (“bricked”). I cannot access the web interface, SSH, or any network services.
Attempts: I have tried this process twice, using the same firmware file each time, but the router bricks both times.
Could you please advise on:
Whether the firmware file I downloaded is correct and compatible with the WR3000E model.
A direct download link to an official firmware file, if available.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,
Kamil”
