12:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Hold on, okay. Okay. I don't know. Wait. Yeah. Okay. We'll go slowly. Please. Yes, I have a visual visual issue. I have visual problems, so I need it's harder for me to read fast. Okay, there's there's my router local. That's what I typed in before and it got stuck. Yeah. No, it just got stuck, but she told me it would get to that page with security. She told me don't worry about it and I I've done things before where they told me, don't worry about it. I'm like, but they always tell me to worry. So.
13:00
Speaker 2
Okay. There you are. I can see now your computer screen. All right. So, let me now gain the control, okay? All right. Yeah, sure. R. R. all right. Okay. You got this page? [silence] Hey!
13:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. Yeah. Is is is. Yeah, but this is something you can see, right? I. OK, give me a minute. Yes, sir. OK. This is where I got because I had to change the password. Oh, good. Yeah. And it just spun around waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. OK, and no, it didn't even get to this page. Um, it told me to type in the password and I
14:00
Speaker 2
I see. All right. Do you, can you enter your router password? There's a hint. It's network. You still remember what password you've created? Okay. Can you enter that? No, I cannot. No, I can not. It's all dots. Yeah, sure. All right. Mhm. On this page? Okay, I see. Oh. Oh really. All right. The you go slower 6 gigahertz doesn't have the 2.4. So it always stick on a PA three personal. But you don't need to worry. As long as the Canon printer able to detect your Wi-Fi network, it will detect only the 2.4 and 5 gigahertz since doesn't have the capability to detect the 6 gigahertz band.
14:00
Speaker 1
What happened is, well, I don't know if you're aware of Spectrum, but we had to call Spectrum, and they had to give they had to give us a new modem, apparently. And then ever since they gave me the new modem, everything's been a mess. Oh, we we did. We did. And then and then they said no, no. It's with your router's flying changes. Okay, it says it's with your router. So then, you know, I called Lenovo just to be sure, and they said, yeah, but it's with your router. And then I called Linksys, and I could not do it myself, which is frustrating 'cause she gave me all the steps, just like you went through. Now, why is it? Tell me this. Why is it that when you did this, my computer went through? It didn't get stuck on waiting. But when you did it, I mean, when I did it, my computer got stuck on waiting and never could it would go to the next page. But when you did it,
16:00
Speaker 2
uh-huh it's the problem okay I understand uh-huh okay uh-huh
16:00
Speaker 1
It went to the next page. [ silence ] Why is that? Oh! Oh no! [ silence ] Okay! So what does this mean? [ silence ] Okay! What does this mean? You're not connected to your router. [ silence ] I hope so! [ silence ] Yes, yes.
17:00
Speaker 2
I'm not really particularly sure why that happened. You can actually use MyRouter.Local or MyRouter.info. This one? You can use either of those two if you cannot. Or. Okay, since we did some/ applying some changes, the router will redo some changes. But as long as the router is back again and running, automatically your router will get back to its next set. All right, so how about this one? Let's- can we try to- may I ask ma'am, with the information provided to you by your internet service provider, Spectrum, do you see all right? Okay. Um, is there
17:00
Speaker 1
This network is CF. You saw that. No. The first one with the paint. Yeah, that's the one. Um, I don't know. It's our Wi-Fi network that I set up for our home. Oh boy. Is it plain? It's black. Oh the model number. Uh maybe. Let me go over there.
18:00
Speaker 2
Oh, which one? This one? Is that...? that's the Wi-Fi name of your Linksys router, right? Okay! Um, the the modem that you're that... that the modem that Spectrum provided to you, is it like a plain modem or like a modem that have like Wi-Fi also? Do you know by that? You, uh, could you please provide to me like a model number of that. Yep.
18:00
Speaker 1
I'm gonna probably need my glasses so I can read. Hang on a second. Okay. So what's happening to my computer right now? What are you doing? Okay. Yeah, probably. I don't know. This is way beyond my Okay. So you don't want any number off the bottom of my modem right now. [silence]
19:00
Speaker 2
i'm just checking some connection and some information of your links is rather especially the the connection where it's connected um i believe it's just like a plain modem and it has the the the default uh IP address of your links as well yeah it is it's still it's still uh it's like a uh the modem that you had is just a plane modem yeah so how about try that uh could you try to check and see um if the the canon printer will be able to connect now yeah no need.
19:00
Speaker 1
[KEEP_UNCERTAIN] Okay. All right. Well, my Mac is... Maybe I should have used Chrome to start with. now that you know, I'm seeing you move all around my computer, which I'm giving a stranger access to my computer, but it's Chrome seems to work better. Okay, so let's see. So we activate see if I can remember what they um I can't remember what they told me to do. Let me see. e
20:00
Speaker 2
No need thank you so much yeah you can actually use Chrome mm-hmm
20:00
Speaker 1
Okay, can or not. Okay. So, can. Let me just figure out what the heck. Okay. Should I write it down? Let's see. All right, I'm gonna try again. So activate wireless LAN. I think change active. It keeps going back to then. Land settings maybe? Wireless land setups. Uh, I don't know which one to push. Cableless set up? Standard set up? Try this one. Searching. Okay, then we'll use one Wi-Fi router only. Okay, I have one. I have the router. Plus I have three nodes. So it says use one Wi-Fi router only? Use multiple Wi-Fi routers? What do I click on? Okay. Check the Mac address of the target wireless router by referring to the wireless router manual.
21:00
Speaker 2
Mm-hmmmm. That's right. You can just use one.
22:00
Speaker 1
Ah, I don't, I, that's that's not right. You know? Oh my, Oh, set Mac address. This is something wrong here. Yeah, it's a Canon. The my yeah, maxify, M is in Mary, B is in boy 5120. Yeah. So, yeah. So at this stage, I would call Canon and I would ask Canon to help me, walk me through it because I don't know what to do. because I'm at still enjoy it. Went back to the screen, use one Wi-Fi, router or use multiple
23:00
Speaker 2
Oh, uh... Yeah, I think so. You're using Canon, um, printer, right? is that right? Canon printer? uh, do you know the model number for that one? uh-huh. uh, MFP-510. ok. mm. All right, let me try
23:00
Speaker 1
set up wireless router. Okay. Then I click on my, my network name. And it says mo- well, that's way before that. So I'll go before that of wireless. So wireless LAN set up. Okay. Okay, I did. And then I yeah. So I'll click. Right. I've done that. And then before. So we're doing everything the same. And now I have a window that says multiple wireless.
24:00
Speaker 2
yes, do you see select wireless LAN setup okay yes go before that okay and then choose standard setup okay do you see the wood wide and fine network okay try to choose it okay all right Okay. Okay. Choose that MultiPL wallet. That's your password. That's your Wi-Fi password. for seaforth
24:00
Speaker 1
. Okay, I'm okay. Are you able to see this? No, this password is for my network. Isn't that what it wants? Yeah, I did. Okay. It doesn't give me an option to be able to see it. So, I'm just going to trust I did it. I did it correctly. Yeah, it doesn't doesn't tell me.
26:00
Speaker 2
Double check first the password, okay? Before clicking next. You can verify that one on the on your computer, since I'm on the Wi-Fi settings, if you want to. Okay? Yeah. No, no, no. The password of your Linksys router. Yeah. For the Wi-Fi. And that's what you need to enter on the the Canon screen. Justice. Okay. All right.
26:00
Speaker 1
No option to visualize. Please work. It says yeah, connect to the wireless router. Okay, yeah. Okay, so now. Oh, well, I've got one good sign. The little box in the bottom left corner that says Wi-Fi is um, there's no red line through it. So let me just find. Let me. Oh. Okay. Okay. So we're good. Okay. Oh. Okay. Great. Okay, now, how do I, how do I, how do I make sure that you're really off and you no longer have access to my computer.
