like troubleshooting documentation, the step where you get to go into the app and try to reset the password using, like, email or the router password, it doesn't even go to that screen, it just always says, signing you in. But I, like, I don't get a chance to interrupt that because afterwards, if notice that the network asks me to, if I want to connect, and then I never get the opportunity to reset the password, and I don't know what to do now. Okay. Okay. Just one. Yeah, let me get it.

I know the operating system of the phone that has the LynxS app, like is it an Android or iOS? All right, thank you so much for that one. And I assume this phone is still connected to the Wi-Fi name of the router, correct? Uh-huh. And all right, so let's try to log in into the LynxS app now.

[silence] where it says, our password and location. Yes and then it just said, starting to look for networks and then launch setup. So do I go through with launch setup? [silence] Yes, I have that now, and I'm on the email router password screen you just mentioned. Mm-hmm. Okay, great.
06:00
Speaker 2
Okay, great. Uh, wait, ma'am, on the screen, uh, it's showing there that email address and password and router password, correct? Yeah. Uh-huh. So, uh, uh, no, ma'am. Uh, on the screen, is there an option that says 'Login'? Huh? So, yeah, let's login using the router password, so, finally, tap on router, and, it's okay, ma'am, we can reset the router password because rest assured that resetting the password will not disconnect your wireless devices from the network, since router and Wi-Fi password are from different. Okay, great. So, yeah, kindly on the... sorry, on the screen, tap on 'Reset Password' and then enter the five-digit

Speaker 1
Mhm. I did that. Okay. Yes. Okay. Yeah. Okay, why did we get here? So once you set this up and you use a router password to get in, do you have to make an email for the account to log in? Yeah. Okay.
08:00
Speaker 2
Ah, hello ma'm, so after you entered the five digits recovery key. It's going to ask you to create a new router password. And that should do it ma'm. All right. You all right So just make sure ma'm the new password meets the requirements. So then yeah, just tap login. Mhm. Yes ma'm, however, I'm going to set your expectation that link this like the remote access feature is has already been discontinued, ma'm. So So I really do apologize for that one. So moving forward, we can only manage the

Router locally using the Linksys app. However, rest assured, ma'am, that you can still manage the devices of yours, including the devices that are connected to the router, using the router password.
