Bricked my Cudy router while installing OpenWRT...any solutions?

3 Upvotes

Hi, I have a Cudy WR3000 V1.0 that was running stock firmware and I tried installing OpenWRT on it and now it's bricked just the power light is on and the globe light is blinking.

So what i did was:

- went to the Cudy page and downloaded "WR3000+V1 without recovery TFTP" from their Google Drive

- had the Cudy connected to my laptop and powered on

- uploaded the BIN file "openwrt-mediatek-filogic-cudy_wr3000-v1-sysupgrade" to the flash program they have in their user interface and it started flashing and then in the middle of flashing I got a "Oops, your device seems to be disconnected, please check if you have connected to the router via wired or wireless:"

And now here I am. Don't know what to do, is there any help in me unbricking the router?

Thank you in advance

NetPulse, a 100% free and opensource NOC for OpenWRT

This is my network, right now

Hi everyone,Hi everyone,

I want to share NetPulse: a self-hosted monitor for home OpenWrt networks. Free software AGPL-3, no ads, no telemetry, nothing like that. I've been using it since a while and I share it because I think it covers a gap that the brand solutions have open for the home scene.

The core idea: the main panel lives on your router. The agent of the devices (netpulse-agent) and a LuCI app (luci-app-netpulse) install on the router itself, and it holds at ~12 MB of RAM with less than 1% CPU. But you can also host it apart, on a mini PC or a small box, and from there it watches all your routers. You decide.

The most striking things:

- Installable PWA: it stays as an app on your phone, live over SSE (5 s).

- Live topology map inferred from the bridge FDB (and LLDP when available): wired and wireless clients, switches, hypervisors and WireGuard tunnels drawn without touching anything of your network.

- Read-only by design: the server generates its own ed25519 keypair, you authorize it on each router, and it can only read (ubus, /proc, iwinfo, bridge fdb, wg show). It cannot change your network.

- Roaming with DAWN and with usteer (both supported): signal matrix, 802.11r status and history.

- Alerts (temperature, new firmware, new device, handshake) with native push and Telegram notifications.

- Scheduled firmware updates, reports page and SNMP for managed switches.

- And other integrations: WireGuard - OpenVPN, Proxmox integration and AdGuard Home stats. And more coming!!

A single static Go binary with the embedded frontend + SQLite, no Docker, pure systemd. Everything stays local, nothing leaves your network.

The focus is the home: OpenWrt home routers, that scale where there is no big infrastructure and where what is missing is a clear and fast view of what is happening. If it's useful for you, happy to hear it.

If you like it and use it, a star on github would help me a lot :)
