I have some old stuff that they don't use anymore, but I just need my system fixed.
02:00
Speaker 2
Okay, now let me just confirm if I'm talking with Derek Moore and your email address is dmotoe69@ tilburymail.com. Okay, so let me just hold this call for three to five minutes for to have or to your check your existing record and also to double check the troubleshooting you did with the previous technician. So, all you need to do is to wait three up to five minutes, okay? To have resources in my end. Thank you.
02:00
Speaker 1
(sighs heavily) Ooh. Hello, hello. yep a child node okay so what about what about the main node do you still need that Okay the last one [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
Okay, Thank you for patiently waiting. Derek. Okay, can you please provide the serial number of the child node that you're going to add? Derek Derek. Okay. So the last time you called us, it's all about the issue, which is he doesn't have any internet connection. So the previous technician assisted you with the paid support on setting up the parents node. And you called us for a different issue and I would like to set an expectation also that it is or it it is it was a one time support. So if you're going to call us back, then you need to pay another $15 so that we can assist you to set up your child nodes.
06:00
Speaker 1
I didn't use up the whole 60 minutes for the last call. Okay, okay. So, with that being said, I have the Linksys app and that's how I would normally connect and do any kind of administrative work with my network. The app is not working. So how, that's not a part of the node, that's the part of the main network. So I, I did that twice. I
07:00
Speaker 2
But they did expectation, right. That the issue was resolved because your main concern is you doesn't have any internet connection. So before ignition, you successfully set up the router and access the internet and that is a one-time it's non-refundable so further support would require a new paid session. Okay, how did you try to access on the Linksys app? Kindly uninstall and reinstall the Linksys app.
07:00
Speaker 1
All right, stand by, let me try it now, because this this is becoming frustrated. All right, so I'm un installing the Linksys app. Okay, so it's uninstalled. Now, do I need to turn off? Okay, okay, let me go to the Play Store. I'm just saying that there's a confusion. It should be, but let me check. Yep, it's linked to my network. Okay, let me uh reload the app.
08:00

Looking for available networks. So, my network showed up. I'm gonna click the little eyeball to see what the password is. Okay, so my Wi-Fi password showed up.
