14:00
Speaker 1
oh, yeah. what year did I get it? what year did I get it? August 26th. August 26th, 2022. Okay, yeah, that's about right. I keep them a long time. They left a long time. Yeah, I know it wasn't in their warranty. I could have told you that.
21:00
Speaker 2
Hello. Okay. Thank you very much for patiently waiting. And after about just a couple of minutes more hold. Okay. So upon checking our records here ma'am, it appears that your device is already outside of its warranty period. And unfortunately, ma'am, we don't Okay. So based on our records ma'am, you have the device or you had the device, you already purchased this one last August 26, 2022, yeah, year 2022. Yes, that is based on our record. Uh, yeah. So, yeah, so unfortunately ma'am, we don't.
21:00
Speaker 1
I didn't catch any of that after after one hour. I can't hear you. Okay, are you saying 15 as in one five or are you saying 50 as in one zero?
22:00
Speaker 2
Generally, we normally didn't support devices that's already outside of its warranty period. However, we have a support option for you. Okay. So you can pay like for $15, we can, we have $15, we can provide you technical support and it's only limited up to an hour. And this is non-refundable and we won't process a replacement in case the device is proven defective. Yes, sorry. This, again, Ma'am, yeah, so, we can assist you, we have this for $15, $15, we can provide you a technical support for an hour. Okay and this support is non-refundable. If the device is proven defective, then we will not be able to replace the device. Since it's already outside of the warranty period. Yes, $15. $15.
22:00
Speaker 1
What's the Wallace update? How you do that? Yeah. You, what do you say? I need to make Tomoh our American dreams. You said I need to update my my my my my password and my sign in for my router? Silence
23:00
Speaker 2
We can open the sports. Yes, we can open the sports on the router, but we cannot guarantee if that will help fix the issue. Yes, Mom, those sport numbers, but again, I cannot guarantee if that works because as far as we know, for you to connect the printer, you need just the wireless settings. You don't have to open the ports. So wireless settings is your Wi-Fi name and Wi-Fi password. That's what you need to connect the printer to Wi-Fi. Oh, what do you mean, ma'am? No need, ma'am. You don't have to update [silence]
23:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. He did that. We did that. We did that. We played with my own, and he had to go somewhere to find it just in case he thought I didn't know it. I knew what my login and my password was. We've done all that. We looked at all that. And it's right. Okay. What hours are you open? What hours do you operate? What day of the week? Eastern, what day of the week? Are you closed on the weekend?
24:00
Speaker 2
the what you call this, the username and password on your router. You just have to enter those settings to the printer, not to the computer. Okay, so if you want, I can assist you for 50 dollars to open those port numbers, but again, there's no guarantee if that will help fix the issue of the printer. So we are open from 9 from 9:00 AM to 9 PM, Eastern Standard Time. Or central standard, yeah, Eastern Standard Time from Mondays to Friday. No, men, we're closed. Okay, thank you.
24:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Well, let me call somebody back. I probably won't get the same guy and tell them what you said. If you don't really think that's what it is, that they need to be open. You say I need to do a wireless update with my password. So don't worry about the wireless update. How how how do that. So I want how the word how I tell them I didn't say it right. You didn't like wireless update. What should I tell them you said I need to do? It is. It is, huh? I've taken it off and put it back on. We've done that.
25:00
Speaker 2
during the weekend. Ah, no, no, you don't need to update the wireless. If your other devices can connect using that you should or using that wi-fi name and wi-fi password, then it should work to your printer as well. Yes, you don't need to update the router since other devices are working fine. Yes, you just need to enter your you just need to connect your what you call it, your printer to your network using your wi-fi name and wi-fi password. Yes, ma'am. But, yeah, but again, ma'am, if we open those port numbers on the router, yeah, we can open the ports of the router. Again, we cannot guarantee if that will help fix the issue because you might waste your $15 for nothing. If we open those ports and your printer will not work. And can you, yeah, can you say that again, ma'am? You have those port numbers? Yes. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. [silence] Mm-hmm. [silence] Yes ma'am I understand. And did they tell you ma'am, what yeah if you open this port numbers yeah the IP address where we open for this port numbers because you need to use Yeah we called IP address for the device that will be using this port numbers.
25:00
Speaker 1
Say nothing about an IP address. Not, not here. You know, they hadn't asked me that yet. All day and usually when I set up printers, we do get to that, but we hadn't got that far. We can't get this one, we can't get this one online. Let me, let me call back and see if I can speak to a manager or something and then I'll call you back. And y'all closed at um at 8:00, y'all close now. It's the 8:00 p.m. Right? Eastern time.
