Your Whole Home, One Strong WiFi Network
Forget constantly searching for the best WiFi signal. With the Cudy M3000S 2-Pack Mesh System, you can create a single, intelligent WiFi Network across multiple rooms and floors. Your devices will always automatically connect to the strongest node without interruption – whether you're moving from the living room to the study with your laptop or walking through the house with your smartphone. The two units are already paired at the factory, making setup a breeze: unpack, connect, launch the app, and you're done!
Wi-Fi 6 Power: AX3000 for Streaming, Gaming, and Home Office
Experience the future of WiFi with Wi-Fi 6. This AX3000 system delivers combined speeds of up to 3 Gbps, making it perfect for demanding tasks. Technologies like OFDMA and MU-MIMO ensure that countless devices – from smartphones and laptops to smart home gadgets – can communicate with the Network simultaneously and without delays. This provides the perfect foundation for a stable WiFi for your home office and seamless entertainment.
More Than Just WiFi: Integrated VPN Client and DNS Security
The Cudy M3000S is more than just a fast WiFi provider. It's a security hub for your home network. With the integrated Cudy Mesh System with VPN Client Function, you can route your entire network or just selected devices through a secure VPN tunnel – ideal for enhanced privacy. Additionally, DNS over TLS (DoT) protects you from manipulation and monitoring of your DNS requests. You typically find such professional features only in much more expensive devices.
Maximum Flexibility with Ethernet Backhaul
Each M3000S unit is equipped with two Gigabit Ethernet ports. This gives you maximum freedom. Use the ports on the satellite unit to connect devices like your gaming PC or Smart TV directly with an Ethernet Switch or cable and benefit from a latency-free connection. Or, for ultimate performance, connect the two mesh nodes to each other with a LAN cable (Ethernet backhaul). This way, you can bypass even the thickest reinforced concrete walls and ensure that the full speed of your internet connection is available at every point.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I expand my Cudy M3000S system with other Cudy mesh products?
Yes, absolutely! The Cudy mesh system is super flexible. You can easily expand your M3000S network with other Cudy mesh-enabled WiFi Routers or extenders to further increase your WiFi coverage whenever you need to.
What's the difference between wireless and Ethernet backhaul, and which is better for me?
Imagine the 'backhaul' as the invisible highway between your two mesh points. With a wireless backhaul, they communicate with each other wirelessly—super simple. But if you have thick walls or want the absolute maximum speed and stability, the Ethernet backhaul is your friend: you simply connect the two devices with an Ethernet Cable. Your M3000S can do both!
Can I set up a VPN connection for specific devices only with the M3000S?
Sure, that's one of the coolest features! You can easily establish a connection to your VPN provider via the integrated VPN client. Then, in the menu, you specify which of your devices (e.g., just your work laptop) should browse through the secure VPN tunnel, while all Others use the regular network.
Can I use the LAN ports on the second mesh point for my PC or console?
Of course! That's a huge advantage. Even if the second mesh point is only connected to the base via WiFi, its two Gigabit LAN ports work like a mini Ethernet Switch. Just connect your PC, PlayStation, or Smart TV with a cable and enjoy a super stable and fast connection.
Is setting up the Cudy M3000S complicated?
Not at all! We've made it as easy as possible for you. The two devices are already paired right out of the box. You just need to connect one unit to your modem, download the Cudy app on your phone, and follow the instructions. Your new high-speed WiFi network will be up and running in minutes.
Does the mesh system work well in my home with thick walls?
Thick walls are tricky for any WiFi, but that's exactly what mesh is made for! The M3000S performs very well thanks to Wi-Fi 6 and beamforming. The ultimate trick for maximum power with reinforced concrete is to connect the two mesh points with an Ethernet Cable (this is called Ethernet backhaul). This way, you completely bypass the wireless interference from the wall and get full speed in both locations.
