03:00
Speaker 2
I certainly hope so. Um, you mentioned earlier that you reset it already the router, so for how long did you press and hold the reset button? Okay, thank you so much. Can you see any LED light coming from the router? Uh-huh. Okay. Oh, okay. Okay, now it's solid. Can you double check if you can see it's default Wi-Fi name?
03:00
Speaker 1
Um, is the Wi-Fi name as what you said? It's - it's, yes. Yes, I'm connected to it on my phone. Uh, correct. Well, it doesn't say no internet, but like, it won't load, like my phone won't load anything. Say what? [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
of your EA 7300, that should start with Linksys. Yeah, yeah, can you see it from your phone or from any devices? Okay. I can, okay, so you're connected to the default Wi-Fi name, but it says no internet. Or okay. Okay, and by the way, the the internet source on that new location, ah yeah, so the internet source of that new location, are you using a modem? from the Internet service provider or OK. OK give me a one moment. OK let me just check this one OK. So here's actually the thing about your router is that the EA7300 that you have it's actually one of our legacy router and the technical support for this router actually ended last 5-15-2025. So that was already a year ago. So the only thing that I can do to help you with this concern is sending you an email.
04:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. Okay. Can you can you help me with this? I'm I'm I've I've downloaded the app and I've logged into the app and it tells me you haven't added a router to your account. And it says add existing router or set up a new router. When I try to do either one of those, it acts like it can't find it. [silence]
06:00
Speaker 2
um [silence] all of the troubleshooting steps that you need. um [silence] so I'll be sending the email to the Brown12.com [silence] uh yeah [silence] mhm [silence] regarding uh [silence] So in regards with uh setting up again the router since you have uh performed on resetting it. So you cannot use the app for that one anymore because of some updates.
06:00
Speaker 1
okay Um Yes, let me stand by one. But that computer's not going to be connected to the internet. Uh, I think online. [silence]
07:00
Speaker 2
and then and then you know this router that you have since this is as what what we have mentioned earlier this is already part of our legacy router so it's already behind with all of the updates that was actually already happening so you can only set this one up if you can access the router setting on using a web browser I can walk you through on that thing uh do you have an available iPad or a computer right now uh the computer that you have can it work with an ethernet cable or only wireless?
07:00
Speaker 1
Wireless. Okay, give me a second here. [silence]
08:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, that's okay. We can we can definitely use that one. With or without an internet connection, we can still access the router settings of your Linksys router. [silence]
08:00
Speaker 1
Okay, give me one second. I get logged on this computer here. Are you still there? Hello? [silence] Okay.
09:00
Speaker 2
Ah, yes, I'm still here. Yeah, I'm still here.
09:00
Speaker 1
Uh, okay, I, uh, I can't get on this computer, so, uh, guess, uh, guess I don't have, uh, I don't have an extra device. I'll get my phone. Okay.
10:00
Speaker 2
okay. you might actually go and encounter, or you might having a hard time doing it, because, you know, phone is kind of small and you need to zoom it in and out just to navigate on the web browser. But if you can actually, or maybe later on, if you can have an available device or an iPad or maybe, let's say, a computer, or that computer could might actually work later, then you can absolutely use it. And then I'll be sending you all of the troubleshooting instructions of what are the things that you can perform on your EA 7300 and then, aside from that one, I'll be also sending you the link on how you can access it on a
10:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Could you, could you, can we try? Can you try to talk me through it on the phone? Okay. Oh, hold, hold on. I might, this is my wife calling. I'm not giving, see, can I put you on hold? She's gonna help me get on the computer here. Okay, you still there?

13:00
Speaker 2
[silence] okay [silence] i can you make sure that [silence] the computer is already connected to your [silence] EA7300 network [silence] okay [silence] you are connected now on the [silence] uh open a browser [silence] and then on the address bar or on the URL bar type in [silence] try using the 192 [silence] 168 [silence]
13:00
Speaker 1
Okay, okay, okay, nothing's happening. I mean it's like the circle's like spinning like it's trying to load but nothing's happening. Uh, about two feet.
14:00
Speaker 2
192.168..1.1 and then just press enter. Um, how far is this computer from your EA7300? [silence]
14:00
Speaker 1
[silence] It doesn't look perfect. I could hotspot my phone.
15:00
Speaker 2
Okay, that's absolutely quite close. On this computer, can it work with an Ethernet cable? Okay. So, as of the moment, you don't have any active Wi-Fi connection, or maybe a hotspot connection that is currently working. Okay. I don't know. Uh, that's actually the thing that we need to make sure that we turn it off because, uh, we need to make sure that this device can only, uh, recognize the signal or the Wi-Fi connection coming from the EA7300, not on the other, um, you know, available network.
15:00
Speaker 1
OK, yeah, nothing like that is on right now. Yes. It says, connected, strong signal, no internet. It says, this site can't be reached. Would you like to hold down the reset button again? OK.
16:00
Speaker 2
and the computer is still connected to the uhrcis router so like right now the 192168 that one dot one is not doing anything can you try resetting again that router yeah yes press and hold its reset button for like 20 seconds instead of uh
16:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. I'm doing that now. [silence] Okay. [silence] Okay, now the link is light is flashing on the router.
17:00
Speaker 2
instead of 15. Okay? Okay. So give it at least a minute or two, so that, um, it can boot up itself. And then, um, after that, uh, try reconnecting the computer again.
17:00
Speaker 1
It is a Windows computer. What did you tell me to do though? I need to know your operating system. OK. [silence] [silence]
18:00
Speaker 2
to your EA 7300, and then try opening again the browser, by the way, what computer are you using? Are you using a Mac computer or a Windows computer? Okay. Uh let's just wait for at least a minute or two. And then uh try again on your computer, try looking again for the uh Wi-Fi network of your EA 7300, please.
18:00
Speaker 1
Okay. It's not showing up right now. [silence] Okay, now it says connected.
19:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Can you turn off the Wi-Fi connection from your your computer? Just toggle it off and on. Okay. Now it says can, connect now, try opening again a browser. Ah, yeah, but, but before proceeding on the browser, Adam, can you please locate the search bar that is on the very most lower or, or on the lower part of your monitor, please? There should be a search bar that has a magnifying glass.
19:00

Oh, okay. The Chrome booked OK. So, yeah, let's go ahead and proceed to the browser instead. OK, now on the address bar or on the URL bar, type again the 192.168.1.1, and then just press enter or just proceed on that one. OK, what are the other things that you could see? [silence].
