Cudy X6

Under Construction!
This page is currently under construction. You can edit the article to help completing it.

Cudy's CD-X6 is a dual band 802.11ax (WiFi 6) wireless router featuring 5x Gigabit Ethernet ports and an aggregate data rate of up to 1775Mbps. The router supports Cudy's whole home mesh system, DNS over TLS (DoT), and various VPN server or client protocols as well as TR-069.

This is an empty template that suggests the information that should be present on a well-constructed Device Page. This means, that you have to fill it with life and information.
There are several “fixme” tags with text on a light background (like this text) throughout this template. As you fill in the page, remove those tags so that people can judge its completeness.
When there are no more “fixme” tags left, delete this one too, along with the <WRAP> that encloses it.

Keep the articles modular

Please include only model specific information, omit bla,bla and put everything generic into separate articles
If you have no time to write certain stuff, link to docs
base-system should lead the way, do not explain this again
DO NOT provide a complete howto here! Instead groom the general documentation.

→ Install OpenWrt (generic explanation)

Please add the installation procedure here.

Find out flash layout, then add the flash layout table here (copy, paste, modify the example).

Please check out the article Flash layout. It contains examples and explanations that describe how to document the flash layout.

The instructions below are for Broadcom devices and only serve as an example.
Remove / modify them if they do not apply to this particular device!

This section deals with

How you install OpenWrt from a device freshly opened
The steps required such as reset to factory defaults if the device has already been configured

Note: Reset router to factory defaults if it has been previously configured.

Browse to http://192.168.1.1/Upgrade.asp
Upload .bin file to router
Wait for it to reboot
Telnet to 192.168.1.1 and set a root password, or browse to http://192.168.1.1 if LuCI is installed.

→ generic.flashing.tftp

Specific values needed for tftp

Enter values for “FILL-IN” below

Bootloader tftp server IPv4 address	FILL-IN
Bootloader MAC address (special)	FILL-IN
Firmware tftp image	Latest OpenWrt release (`NOTE:` Name must contain “tftp”)
TFTP transfer window	FILL-IN seconds
TFTP window start	approximately FILL-IN seconds after power on
TFTP client required IP address	FILL-IN

→ generic.sysupgrade

These are generic instructions. Update with your router's specifics.

Browse to http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/mini/system/upgrade/ LuCI Upgrade URL
Upload image file for sysupgrade to LuCI
Wait for reboot

If you don't have a GUI (LuCI) available, you can alternatively upgrade via the command line. There are two command line methods for upgrading:

sysupgrade
mtd

Note: It is important that you put the firmware image into the ramdisk (/tmp) before you start flashing.

sysupgrade

Login as root via SSH on 192.168.1.1, then enter the following commands:

cd /tmp
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/XXX/xxx.abc
sysupgrade /tmp/xxx.abc

mtd

If sysupgrade does not support this router, use mtd.

Login as root via SSH on 192.168.1.1, then enter the following commands:

cd /tmp
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/XXX/xxx.abc
mtd write /tmp/xxx.abc linux && reboot

→ generic.debrick

→ failsafe_and_factory_reset

→ Basic configuration After flashing, proceed with this.
Set up your Internet connection, configure wireless, configure USB port, etc.

Please fill in real values for this device, then remove the EXAMPLEs

The default network configuration is:

Interface Name	Description	Default configuration
br-lan	EXAMPLE LAN & WiFi	EXAMPLE 192.168.1.1/24
vlan0 (eth0.0)	EXAMPLE LAN ports (1 to 4)	EXAMPLE None
vlan1 (eth0.1)	EXAMPLE WAN port	EXAMPLE DHCP
wl0	EXAMPLE WiFi	EXAMPLE Disabled

Please fill in real values for this device, then remove the EXAMPLEs

Numbers 0-3 are Ports 1-4 as labeled on the unit, number 4 is the Internet (WAN) on the unit, 5 is the internal connection to the router itself. Don't be fooled: Port 1 on the unit is number 3 when configuring VLANs. vlan0 = eth0.0, vlan1 = eth0.1 and so on.

Port	Switch port
Internet (WAN)	EXAMPLE 4
LAN 1	EXAMPLE 3
LAN 2	EXAMPLE 2
LAN 3	EXAMPLE 1
LAN 4	EXAMPLE 0

→ hardware.button on howto use and configure the hardware button(s). Here, we merely name the buttons, so we can use them in the above Howto.

Please fill in real values for this device, then remove the EXAMPLEs

The Cudy X6 has the following buttons:

BUTTON	Event
EXAMPLE Reset	reset
EXAMPLE Secure Easy Setup	ses
EXAMPLE No buttons at all.	-

This table is automatically generated, once the correct filters for Brand and Model are set.
If you see “Nothing.” instead of a table, please edit this section and adjust the filters with the proper Brand and Model. Just try, it's easy.
If you still don't see a table here, or a table filled with '¿': Is there already a Techdata page available for Cudy X6 ? If not: Create one.
If you see a table with the desired device data, everything is OK and you can delete this text and the <WRAP> that encloses it.
If it still doesn't work: Don't panic, calm down, take a deep breath and contact a wiki admin (tmomas) for help.
