Speaker 1
you. You want to know how do I start with my. What happened you yes hello then. I'm calling you from from Belgium from from a place. It's uh home where I have several uh several uh devices. Uh I I called you uh a few times quite a long time ago like one good year ago. Maybe you have a file about us. I don't know that could help us to know a bit what I'm talking about. You want me to with my phone number? Could you access something with my phone number?
00:00
Speaker 2
Welcome to [UNSURE] support. To assure quality service, your call may be monitored. Please remain on the line for assistance. [silence] Hi, thank you for calling [UNSURE]. My name is Van and I'll help you today. [silence] Your previous inquiry with us was regarding about the setup of your [UNSURE] product. What was the model on that?
00:00
Speaker 1
yes, exactly. that was, u, one week or two weeks ago, was it? Then, I've seen you, I found you also one, one or two years ago. about the setting of the system. Anyway, you, you have got some files, huh? So, to tell you, I have quite a few, a few, uh, devices here. And, um, they were all connected via Wi-Fi. And, um, sometimes, uh, we lost the signal. So, I was told when I phone you, maybe, uh, two weeks ago, that I could connect them with, uh, the Ethernet, with wires. huh? which which we did actually, uh, recently. and since and since then, it doesn't very work very well. sometimes we have no connection at all. sometimes it just it drops down enormously.
01:00
Speaker 2
Yes that's correct. Mhm Mhm Mhm Uh-huh.
01:00
Speaker 1
And sometimes it does fine. But mainly, it doesn't work well. So I'm wondering what to do in these cases. And just just to tell you, I, just to tell you, I didn't reconfiguration, I didn't I didn't do new configuration. I kept them as they were. I just connected them together, you know. So, maybe that's the reason, but now, it really doesn't work at all, not very well. Which is very annoying, because there are quite a few people using it here. Yes. I wired the parent that, I wired the parent node that was quickly configured with the, I suppose is the cable. I wired it directly to the system and then all the child nodes from the parent [garbled]
02:00
Speaker 2
All right, are all five of your links, because when you hardwire your links? Is the first child node wired to the parent node?
02:00
Speaker 1
You wire them to that parent not to the parent node. Yes. And when I called you all those days ago, I asked if I could do that and the guy told me I could do that. So I hope it's okay because now all the wiring is done by an electrician so it's finished now and it's very hard to do it again now. Exactly. Exactly. Yes, I did. And they say that there is
03:00
Speaker 2
You wired all your child nodes straight to the parent node. Uh, I see. You're just all over the place, huh? So you wired them but you're still experiencing the same issue. And may I also ask, have you tried calling your internet provider just to double-check if there's any kind of internet eruption currently happening? With What.
03:00
Speaker 1
there's nothing wrong but the still going to come in two days time to see if there is something wrong the they they checked from from a distance and they said that it looked all right it might it might be that too. i mean, i agree with you. it might be that too but uh now from this since he uh he put it in uh factory he factory reseted the modem and uh that's all he could do from the from a distance and he's going to come to this time so uh but i don't know. might be then two. hard to tell
04:00
Speaker 2
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. All right, because in this case, in this case on your end, as you mentioned, it's currently an intermittent connection even though it's wired. We will need to proceed with a factory reset and set them back up all over again, so that it can clear any kind of unknown data that's currently using it and can start fresh, so that it can also absorb the internet in its original unintegrity.
04:00
Speaker 1
So you recommend I should I should re-initialized the whole system. Is this is is this what you're telling me? Yes. Mm. So on on on all all the devices then. I I suspected that actually but I wanted to call your first you know in order to not to do anything by my own. Yes. So tell me how should I proceed to do that? Should I first reset the first modem then and then go on with the others or?
05:00
Speaker 2
[silence] [silence] [silence] the internet much more properly. That is[silence] correct. [silence] all[silence] nodes must perform[silence] a factory reset, [silence] especially since you're doing a wired connection,[silence] so you don't get any kind of blocking or any kind of node that's better than the other one, those kinds of challenges. No works there, that's completely understandable. [silence] all of them. [silence] you you factory reset Hold until their light completely goes out. All right.
05:00
Speaker 1
I'm going to press the reset button. and see there is no more light, huh? Yes. Yes. I just disconnect the others basically. Yes. All right. Now the primary notes, I will have to set up the whole system. How do I set this back up? When when it's back to factory reset, what should I do then to set it up again?
07:00
Speaker 2
So when you when you perform a factory reset, you just need to hold the reset button until the light goes down. Yeah, that's correct. Make sure that you do it on all the nodes that you have. And then when it's time to set it all back up, you start with the parent node only. Once the parent node is Yes, that's correct. Once you're done with the parent node, you just add your child nodes one at a time.
07:00
Speaker 1
Yes. Yes, I suppose the app would work fine too. It should, yes. And, uh, so I'd give a new name, and all that, uh, I suppose. Yes. There will be, I suppose, there will be, uh, um, a Wi-Fi, uh, Wi-Fi name setup already automatically. And then, I, I would need to, to create a new Wi-Fi, a guest, a guest name, I suppose. Yes? Okay. Good. That's, so, so that's, uh, you have to tell me now. No, that should be, that should be it, uh, I'm going to do it now.
08:00
Speaker 2
Yes, you can use the Linksys app. You can also use a laptop or computer to also set it back up using the web interface. Yes, it should. Yes, that's correct. Yes. Yes. Is there anything else that would you like to know [silence]
08:00
Speaker 1
I suppose, suppose that the main modem was not in so good order. The fact that I reinstall everything won't affect it, I suppose. If they change the modem, it won't be a problem, or I will have to do with everything again. Yes. I should wait until Friday before I do all that, I suppose then. Okay. Good. Thank you very much, Sa. Thank you. Bye-bye.
09:00
Speaker 2
Changing the physical modem, naturally your Lincus will not recognize it. So, it needs to perform a factory reset. So if you're getting a replacement on the modem, you can wait to replace the modem first before you perform the factory reset. Yes. All right. Thank you so much for calling Linksys. Take care and have a great day.
