So, as you probably can see, I have, I've lost count now. Do I have, I think I have 10 access points. I have a mesh network with, um, with the, uh, Velop system. With, uh, I think I have 10, uh, nodes. Um, my current, uh, Internet provider is Vodafone. I'm in the UK. And I'd like to know if I switch over to a Starlink, um, router, that I'd plug, uh, the, uh, the, the parent, uh, Velop, um, into. Would I have to reprogram all of the other access points? [silence] So, so, so, so, so, it will have new, what, um, what? Does it change all the IP addresses, all the, Mm-hmm. Okay. Um, right. So, uh, so how do I, how do I, how do I do that? I, I have to reset the parents? Sorry. So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so,
01:00
Speaker 2
Like pre-program the whole system, linksys device? If you have if you... Yes sir, if you will have a new modem then you will re-configure the whole system, the linksys system. Like starting from scratch sir. Yes, reset everything. Um like re- set uh... Sometimes sir, resetting the parent node and setting it up uh uh uh provide I mean re-naming the Wi-Fi and uh putting the same password that uh what you have before, um it will just reconnect the uh everything.
02:00
Speaker 1
Okay. So, but I shouldn't change the name of the Wi-Fi network though I should keep the same one.
03:00
Speaker 2
thing, like the all the child nodes, but sometimes there is a possibility that the child nodes will not reconnect. And the worst case is you will have to reset everything, all the child nodes, and then redo everything, so that they will reconnect. Yes, sir. Sometimes also, sir, there are there are cases that if when you have a new modem and connect the links is directly to the new modem, it will just go online right away. You won't have to do the reset and reconfiguration, like reprogramming your stem. But if in case, in the event that it will not reconnect, that's the time, there are issues. Let's troubleshoot again. Let's just reset again some other means to reset them and configure it again so that they will connect. Okay, sir.
03:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. Okay. I understand. Right. Right. And the, for example, I have many cameras here that are connected to the different access points. Uh, when I set up the new actually, if I have to reset the access point, I'm gonna have to reconnect the cameras, correct? Of course. Mm, okay. Yes, to the access point.
04:00
Speaker 2
you will need reprogrammed the links. Yes sir. But the cameras are work or I mean connect to the network uh wirelessly right? Okay. Well in that case sir if in case that you will have to reprogram the links again uh what we suggest is to create the same wi-fi name exactly the same wi-fi name and password as what the camera is connect uh into the network and then you will also uh place the same network for the alternative link the second link uh so that uh it will not lose the connection [silence]

Speaker 1
The setting of the IP address on the parent node is done by the parent or is it done by the modem? No, no, no, no, no. I'm talking about the parent. The parent is connected via ethernet cable. It's not by Wi-Fi. Okay, not the modem. The modem is not the one that sets - uh huh. Okay. So,
05:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, so It's varied with the previous settings or from the previous name or network before the reset. So that the devices will just automatically reconnect. Most of the time it works it will work. Done by the parent, sir, because if the device is connected to Wi-Fi network on the Link sys. Yes, yes, the parent. Yes. Yes, because the parent here provide IP assign IP to the devices. So, it provide not the modem.
05:00
Speaker 1
Theoretically, I just unplug one modem and plug the other one in and the parent node should not change the IP address, correct?
06:00
Speaker 2
Well, it depends, sir, because if you will have a new modem, sir, which is a plane modem, then the parent node will have, let's say, a node that, I mean, the IP of 192.168.1.1. The only scenario, sir, in which the parent node will change its IP to 10s, is if the modem, sir, is a gateway or the modem has the same IP 192.168.1.1. Uh, our device, sir, the Linux system has the um as a feature, sir, that it will um change its IP automatically. If it detects that there is a gateway, which has a same IP, then the IP of the parent node will start from 192.168.0.1. and uh so on. [silence]But if you are using a plain modem, the, the, the IP will, will, um will be same. [silence]
06:00
Speaker 1
I understand. Okay. Thanks very much. Thank you. Bye-bye.
07:00
Speaker 2
It's default IP, which is 192.168.1.1 is the same with the modem. It is to make sure to avoid IP conflicts. You're welcome, sir. Thank you for your time as well, sir. If you will have a
