Speaker 1
Yes, sir. I'm a Linksys customer. I've been out of town for a month. I came back and my Linksys internet service isn't working. Can you help me? I didn't understand everything you said. Okay. You want the serial number? It's going to be um uh I see the top number is 08232182. Can you read that? Okay. And your serial number is the one underneath that? 21P11M23B03378. I am Paul from Kansas. Thank you. You paying in- I'll do my credit card. [silence]
12:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Based on this real number, it seems like you have an account right here. Are you Paul Holmes? [silence] All right, thank you. Let me check [silence] your record real quick. [silence]
13:00
Speaker 1
Yes, I have reset it a couple of times. Oh yeah, I can say, yeah, it comes up on my, uh, I'm using my, my tablet, my Android tablet, uh, to try to connect to the, to the Internet. And it says, link says, it says, uh, it's what's the word? It's not connected. It says, it says identified, but not connected.
14:00
Speaker 2
All right, so waiting for the result right here. I'm looking for the model number EGH 310 documentation, but did you already reset the router prior calling? So I'm assuming you can see the Wi-Fi name in your network list, right? Like when you go to your Wi-Fi settings, phone settings.
14:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, let me go back and look. Make sure I'm telling you . . . what it's doing here. Okay, says . . . connected without internet. Linksys 03378. It is plugged in to the . . . . . . let me verify it. But it's the internet port, and the . . . one on the left is blinking yellow, the one on the right is blinking . . . solid green. The other end of this cable is connected to the . . .
15:00
Speaker 2
all connected, but no internet. Right? Okay. At the back of your Linksys router, there are ports. One of the port is labeled internet. So where is the cable plugged in? Is it plugged into the internet port or the ethernet port? Okay, and the other end of that cable is connected to where?
15:00
Speaker 1
Connected to a DZS, whatever they are, router, what do you call? I'm not a computer literate guy. Uh but it's connected to a box that says DZS and it has a status light, uh battery, alarm, one, configuration, internet, got a bunch of things. It's got one, it's just not, it's not all green. I see three green lights, one blinking light. Uh uh no, I have not. I thought you were my internet provider. What are you?
16:00
Speaker 2
Ee I uhm okay. And have you already contacted your internet provider regarding this? Oh, we're not the internet provider. We are the router provider, but we don't provide the internet. So, well
16:00
Speaker 1
okay. I need to have my son here to tell me what all this means. The device that has the Linksys name on it with the four antennas sticking up that is that on the front has a world thing that's that's yellow or green Linksys that's your product correct?
17:00
Speaker 2
artwork. what I see is the so the I would suggest is to turn off the the modem and then have it back on and it does work and we will see what to do with it. But normally if there's internet connection coming from the internet source, the router should be working. it's reliant to the modem. hmmm hmmm. yeah, that is the problem itself. And I just got the result that unfortunately, this is one of the product that Linksys is no longer support and the firmware of this cannot be update already, maybe one of the reasons as well, or you're not getting into attachments.
17:00
Speaker 1
am I am I am I paying you something monthly for this device I I see so what I would need to do to get a up-to-date router is is go where go to Best Buy or someplace yeah yes I I yes I do I'm going to get a pencil just a minute okay say that again [silence]
18:00
Speaker 2
Maybe it's working. It's just needed internet connection coming from the internet source, and the internet source is offline, probably. Oh, you're not paying monthly for this, and we don't charge monthly. It's just one-time payment for the router. [silence] Yes, you can go to Best Buy, Walmart, or Amazon, order it online. [silence] Be convenient, more convenient. But but yeah, you want you want me to suggest some some model number there will that is suitable for your need. Can you give me idea how big is your home and how many devices do you use every day? [silence] How many devices do you use every day and how many devices total?
18:00
Speaker 1
yeah it's one story 2 300 square feet we we have two Samsung smart TVs and and an Android device an Android tablet okay what's a good number blank
19:00
Speaker 2
So, how big is your home? Is it single story or one or two? Okay, then I think I do have model number in mind that I'm going to suggest one sec. Let me check if that's available. Let me just check if that's available. one sec.
19:00
Speaker 1
okay you call it okay yeah this is going to be under your label link sys model MR 7500 okay.
20:00
Speaker 2
[silence] Okay. So what I'm going to recommend is model number MR7500 and that's a good router. It can cover up to 2700 square feet and can handle 55 plus devices. It's also with the latest Wi-Fi technology, not really the latest, uh big but um it's pro 6 and the latest Wi-Fi is Wi-Fi 7, so this is close to 7 Wi-Fi. It should be good for um umumer years. Go ahead, sorry. Yes, correct.
20:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I'll, I will look into purchasing that, and in the meantime, I'll contact, my internet provider. Uh, if you were, if you were trying to um, see if your internet was working, what would you do other than unplugging your, your router? What else would you do? Unplugging and plugging it, plugging it back in, what's it? Hey, um, let me ask you this. I'm sorry, go ahead. What does it mean when it, on the, on your router, in the back it says 'internet', and it's got only got one green light, the other is a blinking yellow light, what does that mean? Okay. And then next to it I plugged in a 12 VDC uh the power, the power source, that, that's not important, I think.
21:00
Speaker 2
Oh um I would uh go ahead uh no go ahead uh no go ahead uh sorry about that. So it means it uh it detected the cable. Uh the cable is there uh and it's trying to transmit the data but uh it's not successful or something like that. Uh and also it's reading the speed uh the speed is
21:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay, I will go back and I will try to figure this out. I don't even know who provides my my internet. I'll have to go back and look. I I tell my credit card is just automatically paid. I never get anything from them. Hey, is there is there a way is there a way I can determine who provides my internet by any my devices? Can I look at them and see? Yeah. Okay. Okay, I think. My modem is online. Okay, I'll give them a call. Thank you. Bye-bye.
22:00
Speaker 2
Maybe not with your case right now, yeah, since it's snowing today. Oh, I see. There should be a way to do that. But based on the record right here when reading, I think you have AT&T provider based on the record. But you can try to contact them and ask them if the modem is online, something. All right, uh, thank you so much, you take care. Bye bye.
