@Karol,
Dear Customer,
Yes, of course you can add another router before the Wr3000.

“Hi, and in the situation below, can there be another router before the Wr3000? I mean, can there be another router connected to the WAN, then connected to the wr3000?”

Hi, and in the situation below, can there be another router before the Wr3000? I mean, can there be another router connected to the WAN, then connected to the wr3000?

Dear Customer,
Please follow the steps:
1. Connect the one of the WR3000 to connect the modem and connect to the internet. Work as the main mesh router.
2. Reset the other WR3000 to factory default.
3. Connect the WAN port of the second WR3000 to the LAN port of the main mesh router. Then the two router will install mesh system automatically. Then everything works.

“I’d like to setup internet by using 2x cudy wr3000 they will be connected via cable with eachother. One of them will be connected to a ISP modem (Wan port of one cudy router connected to modem), then cudy routers connected with eachother using their lan port. Could you tell me what’s best way to configure such connection? Goal is to have good wifi coverage without ip conflicts and be able to also connect devices by ethernet to those routers”
