Speaker 2
Hello, Charles. Hello. Yes, you're speaking with Charles. Yes, that is correct. Unfortunately, I'm not at the location where that device is, so I'm not sure how much troubleshooting we're going to be able to do. Um, so I have a, if you're gonna say, we can't help you right now, then I'll make this call short. Um, I am not sure what troubleshooting steps where you're going to have me follow because it's my in-laws' device.
00:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, so yeah, for this one, so I just want to try, like, to give you, like, a link that you can try to access. Yeah, if you want to, I can send this one to you via email. Is that okay with you? So you can try, yeah, once you get home. Yeah, because the worst thing, so if this still doesn't work, so then, yeah, the last resort is actually like to reset and reconfigure the device. Yeah. So that will be the last resort. So, Yes, try this first. Yes. Yeah, it's not working. Yeah, this is the, I believe it's the 1.1 UI local dynamic. yeah, that seems less work. Yeah, this is a different one. Something. Is that good?
01:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Yeah, no, that's fine. Yeah, that worked fairly well. Okay. Okay, I have no problem doing a factory reset, but yes, I'm willing to try the URL. The first line rep that I spoke with did give me a URL. Was it ud.'default? Yeah, okay. Yeah, it's not working either. So yeah, yeah, she gave she gave that to me already. And eventually, the the page does resolve. If it's a different link then please go ahead and send
01:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. Yeah, I heard that. Yeah. Yeah, well that the place. Yeah, it actually. OK. OK. just yeah I think yeah you actually tried the yeah that 192.168.1.1 forward slash UI.local slash dynamic slash index.html and that seems to bring you to the Linksys now interface, right? So, not the actual Linksys page.
02:00
Speaker 2
submit it to me and I'll try it. but if it's the same one, it did eventually resolve, but it still doesn't give me access into the local admin page, which I need because I'm trying to add I'm trying to add a a home automation device that only seems to want to connect on 2.4 gigahertz. So I need to separate out the 2.4 and the 5 GHz networks temporarily until I get the device connected.
02:00
Speaker 1
Yes, yes, yes, like just now. Yeah, I got your... Yeah, I see the screenshots, yep. Yes, I was able to see the screenshots that you sent to us. So I will send the user this article, okay? And I will also include a Once you are on site, then you can try, give it this a try. And if this doesn't work, then would it be okay with you? If I will just give you a number to dial, so you can you don't have to wait for the case to be escalated again. Yeah, I will also include the level two team hotline on that email, okay? Yeah, yes, that will be the last resource.
03:00
Speaker 2
Chi [silence] there's, okay, yeah, then that'd be wonderful. Yeah if you could send that all in an email that'd be wonderful. But it looks like our next troubleshooting step will be to factory reset it.
03:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, the reset, okay. And it, yeah. Yes. Yes, yes, that's, you should see the login screen where you can enter the router password. Yeah, if that doesn't work, if you forgot the, if you forgot the router password, it also has the option reset. Yeah, that's the thing. Yes. Mm-hmm. Nice. Yeah, I think these are something to do with the update. Yeah, our team is actually aware with this. That's why they are providing us with these work around. Okay. Mm-hmm.
04:00
Speaker 2
Okay. um, Can, can you tell me what I should be expecting to see when it works normally? Should I be seeing a login screen that asks me for an Admin password? Okay. Okay. you know because I had tried. I had been able to get to it. Yeah, I, I couldn't see anything. I was able to get to it a couple months ago because I had tried to do this exact same thing a couple months ago and I just ran out of time. So I was very confused as to why the page did not want to show up this time. Okay. All right. All right. Okay, so yes, please go ahead and send me by email the link to try or to read
