02:00
Speaker 1
Ah, I click on it, it wouldn't open. I tried to gain access to the smart home Wi-Fi and see if it needs the firmware or something needs to be updated, because it's been almost four years or yeah four years, three years, so since I used it. But I'm not able to do anything. I was able to create an account online, but even that it took me almost two hours to get that done. But I have internet connection. My name is dead first name Dennis, D-E-N-N-I-S. Last name D E J-O-R D-A-N. My email is djorns at icloud.com, d-e-j-o-r-d-a-n-s at icloud.com. Correct. I used DI or DI on purpose. [silence] Mm-mm.
