Correct. Correct. I have three. Well, two of them. I had this problem a while back. I don't know why it does this, where two of them turned red. The light is red on the top. And one is working because I... What was that? No, that's not... Yeah, I think it's like my sons. But I didn't put nothing under the like the parental discretion or whatever for the control settings or anything. So this is the second time this has... This is the second time that this is going on. I don't know. It's not the router because I'm... I'm using the router. [silence] Yeah, it does.
01:00
Speaker 2
And how many nodes you have in total, sir? Yes, what seems to be the problem? So is that the child node? Is it the child node that are not connecting? Kay, sir. Okay. All right.

03:00
Speaker 2
So, your, your main node is working, right? The one which is connected to your Optum Modem. The main or the parent node? Because you have three nodes. One is connected to your Optum box, is that working? The one which is connected? That one is working. So the other two are not working, right? Okay. All right, here's what we're going to do, sir - Can we move them close to the parent node? Okay, so since those are Yes, we need to unplug it. I mean, just to move it. Let's close to the parent node, like, five to six feet away, so we can pair them back. Okay. Because since the child nodes, the two are actually child nodes, so they got disconnected from the parent node. So we need to pair that back. Yes. Yes, sir. Once it's paired, then you can always, uh, uh, relocate them back. Okay. Sure, sir.
03:00
Speaker 1
I'm having problems just connecting it because it's behind a lot of stuff right now. Um, so basically I'm going to have to call you guys back and when I do it you're going to have to, so we have to, did you get yours? Okay, okay hold on. I have one. Hold on ma'am, hold on. Alright now I have to have both of them, I got one, I have one here next to the mother now. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
06:00
Speaker 2
Okay, sir, not a problem. Okay, we can actually work on one node, okay? Yeah, because you will definitely do the same thing. If you're able to disconnect that later on, then just do the same thing with the other node, okay? So we'll work on this one first. So what are you gonna do? Yeah, just plug it in. Plug it into the power. [silence]
07:00

24:00
Speaker 2
uh... it's a one six eight dot one dot one and then press enter. Well, the parent node is already working, sir. Okay. We're just trying to reset. Uh, yeah, the problem right now is just a child nodes not the parent. No, so we just need to add them back

Can you check the lights on, I mean, the LED light on the child node? Right now, it's still red. http:// myrouter.local.

I don't know if this not coming up http: myrouter.local. Here we go. The only option that's coming up is the same thing like before access accessing the it says smart Wi-Fi router, password and access. It's nothing. It says manually setting up the link says smart Wi-Fi router access password. Click on that. Uh up up. There's many options. There's.
52:00
Speaker 2
It's not okay. It's okay is it not asking for the router password? Is it asking you to sign in or do you see the image of phone? It doesn't have that option. Okay, it's not asking for password or like access router.
52:00
Speaker 1
no it doesn't say access access the link to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi router user interface. And it says passwords and access is another one. Okay. I got another page router login and setup Netgear. And it says yeah. Ma'am, I I I I did what you told me to do and I'm telling you the options that's on the search bar on the bottom. All the options is coming up.
53:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Yeah, I'll yeah, we're really just getting a different page, sir. It should be, you should be getting that's that net it says Netgear. Okay. are you connected to the linksys network, sir or to a different network? Okay. Yes. Um hold on. I'm just asking if you're connected to your, you have optimum, right? I mean is your optimum a gateway? Is it a modem router or is it a plain modem?
53:00
Speaker 1
It's the router with the modem, but I don't have it set up like that. Yes, it shows. Yeah. The optimum comes up. I'm connected to the I'm I'm connecting to the optimum. The link says it has not never had it set up like that. Like, where I only had it, they took the when I called up the company, they have it off the router. I don't know how they did it, but I have the wireless. That's why the link system for the tower.
54:00
Speaker 2
If you go to your Wi-Fi, are you able to see the optimum network? And are you now connected to the optimum network? Or to the link is network? Did you set up the same name for the? yeah, so you name the linksys network as optimum?
54:00
Speaker 1
No, I never renamed it. I never renamed it. I never had it set up as a, I never had it set up as another name. And this is like, the, the, the. Oh. Okay, so what do we do now? Hold it down to power it on, right? Main one. Okay, 25 seconds.
55:00
Speaker 2
Is that right, Sir? So what was the network name that you set up for Linksys? Okay, okay, um, alright, I think we need to reconfigure the uh, the router here, cause uh, it seems that there's a confusion between your your Optimum and your Linksys network. Right now we're connecting to the optimum, that's the reason why we're not getting into the router page, sir. We're not getting the page cause you're connecting to a different network, not to the Linksys. So okay, can we reset the parent node to factory defaults? Kindly press and hold the reset button on your on the main one to 25 seconds. Yes, press and hold the reset
55:00
Speaker 1

Okay, so you've pressed the reset button and is the light blinking on the link suss? Right. So even if you press the reset, if the it is um there's no reaction on the light cir. Okay, sir, uh. When we make sure that you press the reset button because once you press the reset button, the light on top should blink, it should turn off and that should blink. The blue light should, uh, it once you press the reset button, the light on top will turn off, and the blue light, um, you would be able to see the blue light there. Okay?
