Speaker 1
The motor is blinking, but the Linsky thing is red. Okay, they stopped blinking. Everything is, but the Linsky is red.

Yeah, because the modem itself is still booting up. So our Linksys router, Yolanda, is actually dependent to the modem, who provides internet connection. And for the booting process, it will takes three to five minutes. So kindly keep observe and monitor your Linksys devices, okay? But kindness try also to check the physical connection. So make sure that Ethernet cable is properly plugged in from the modem to the internet port of the parent node.

The same port with your LinkSys router to wire directly to the modem. Just in case. Yeah, if we have. If we have the option to do that. Okay, yeah. Just secure it for the meantime while observing the light indicator of the parent's node from LinkSys. [silence]
12:00
Speaker 1

15:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. So, unplug the main router, okay, and then check if you can browse or access the internet. [silence] So, were you able to go online? Yeah, and of course, can we also restart you, do you have the option to provide a model number of the modem? Hello. [ speech overlap ] Are you still there?

No, the model number. Like I said, C-M-B-2-0-0-A for ALFA, again, it has two ports. How many ports?
19:00
Speaker 1
14. Now I have one. Yes. Okay.
20:00
Speaker 2
I was doing two, right? So there's only one. Okay, since we just power-cycled the modem, can we connect your computer directly to it if you have any internet connection?
20:00
Speaker 1
Please. the motor on now. So, modem is connecting or reconnecting, turning on that term to the internet. I'm shifting down.
21:00
Speaker 2
Sorry? okay, so when you connect your computer directly to the modem you can browse, you can watch videos. Yeah, because if you have a direct connection, you'll be, is supposed to be goes online. When you're connected directly to the modem. Mhm.
21:00
Speaker 1
It's trying to connect to the all of the network but it's all but it's not but that's not on right now so how do I connect it through a USB cord [silence] Yeah, so it should automatically register is what you're saying? We have a brand new internet cable. Please start your motor, your actually. Once again, brand new.
22:00
Speaker 2
is your computer has an ethernet port which you can plug the ethernet cable? Yeah. So even if your Wi-Fi, your hotspot, your mobile data are turned off Yolanda, since you have a direct connection, you can quickly access the internet or you have a direct connection. Yeah, because if you can't go online, when you are connected directly to the modem, which means the modem is not providing any internet connection. You can also try to use a different ethernet cable. Do you have a different ethernet cable? Okay. you can try to use a different ethernet cable.
23:00
Speaker 1
yes, yes. Um, so did you guys unplug everything? yeah, I unplugged it from the wall on the George. the only thing I unplugged was the telephone. Hold on a second kill. Okay. Here we go. I'm trying to get out hold on check it again okay.
24:00
Speaker 2
So were you able to access the internet?
26:00
Speaker 1
knowing. I love at the switchboard because the modules connect to a the modules connect to a a switch a passive like switch to give it an extra port because we also have telephone with it. So, what are you saying? If I have another ethernet cord, I should be able to do something. Is that what you're saying? Okay. Yeah, we
27:00
Speaker 2
Okay. So I. I would really apologize for the inconvenience. So since the modem is only one port, so we don't have the option to transfer the internet cable to a different port of your modem. So we already changed a brand new internet cable, but you're not able to access the internet. So which means the modem itself Yolanda is not providing any internet connection. So you really need to know, the modem. Yeah because actually the router are recommended to plug directly to
27:00
Speaker 1
It is directly perfect. to the node. specify. that one. So, let's stay there. She wants this to be made. Let that. it. Okay.
28:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. And when you are going to connect a computer directly to the modem, it's supposed to be goes online, since you have a direct connection. So make sure that the parents note is connected to the CMA 300A. So what is your set up topology? So modem, and then links this router.
28:00
Speaker 1
so you want, you want us to hook up the ethernet back from the, the, modem, to our router? [silence]
29:00
Speaker 2
No, but you need also to confirm first that your computer can connect to the internet. When plugged directly into the modem, because you have direct connection. So since you have the direct connection, it is supposed to be goes on line or access the internet. So what is your setup topology, Yolanda? Modem and then parent node from Linksys, right?
29:00
Speaker 1
Is it possible to have a different connection? Is that what you asked me? Okay. Yes, it's always connected to the internet. Yes, it is. Okay. Right, and it's not connected and it's not working. So, you're saying that I don't have internet? Eh, from the, the, we've already called the, yeah, I've already called them and they said everything was fine when they that's who we called first. So, uh, It's crazy. Um, Okay. We'll call them back then.
30:00
Speaker 2
Okay, so you're supposed to be have the reconnection. No, no, you already have a direct connection.It is actually recommended to connect the parent node directly to the modem, as it was. But since the parent node steadied red, which means it doesn't receive any internet connection, we need to check the modem first. If it's providing internet, that's why we plug your computer to test the device. Okay. So, regarding... Yes, exactly. So, better to call your... And it might be working in their end, since we accessed it remotely, but try to tell them that you...
30:00
Speaker 1
I'll call them. Okay. Great. Tell me your number. One, wait, wait. What is it? Start over, please. Okay. 1341347. Okay. 7878. Okay. Got it. Thank you for your help. You've been great. All right. Check it.
