23:00
Speaker 2
okay, got it. all right. and Mhm. Mhm. okay, I understand. and the email I just registered here is: dusty@irishroots.com. is this correct? okay. and the model number of reLink that you are trying to connect is: MR8300. and with serial number ending with: 01534. is this correct? all right, thank you. and mano, what's the light now on your connector?
23:00
Speaker 1
Oh. The light is showing red, solid red. Solid red. Correct. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I haven't done it yet, because I don't want to, um, reset everything, but I don't
24:00
Speaker 2
on the router showing in the front is it flashing red or solid red light and just to make sure this linksys router is connected via ethernet cable going to the modem right the internet box and just to make sure as well the cable from the internet box is going into the internet port the yellow port the back of the router all right got it and have you happened like if since it's solid red light did you happen to press the reset at the back of the router
24:00
Speaker 1
I'm pretty sure it's not, I have turned it off and I and plugged it for a while and all that. I'm pretty sure it's not that though because we have this happen quite a bit where our router stops working. My phone, like everything connects to it but it says, it says no internet connection and then nobody can use the internet for sometimes like days and days on end. Um no, not that I can offer them. Mm.
25:00
Speaker 2
got it. because solid red means it's offline and unable to detect Internet from the modem. The best route for this is to a check first the modem. Do you have a computer that can connect wired like using an ethernet cable ? because we're we're going to bypass the Linksys router and check if the modem itself providing an active internet to another device or do you have like TV that can connect using an ethernet.
25:00
Speaker 1
Um, let me look here. Oh, I. Yeah. I can. You mean just plugging in an ethernet cable to something? Just to uh, OK, so unplug the ethernet from the router and plug it into a device. OK. Uh, it would be a laptop.
26:00
Speaker 2
You can disconnect the ethernet cable that's connecting to the Lynx's router, the one in the internet port disconnect that and connect to the device that can connect using an ethernet cable and we'll check that other device if if it feels it can get online. Yes. That device that we're going to test is it a TV or is it a gaming console? What is that?
26:00
Speaker 1
(Sigh) Alright. the the uh, computer. (sigh) It's um, E Windows. K, Windows. let me log in.
27:00
Speaker 2
And your computer okay and your computer, is it running in Windows or Mac OS? Alright Thank you and we're going to make sure that the computer laptop's Wi-Fi is turned off.
27:00
Speaker 1
that yeah so no internet and then i turned it off [silence] network and internet okay yup it's the ethernet it says unidentified network no internet.
28:00
Speaker 2
Okay, we're going to open the network settings or settings on your Windows computers and go to network and internet. All right, and let's check for the ethernet connection. Do you have ethernet option there under network and internet? And I know what's the status of the ethernet? Okay, we're going to try to restart the modem. I'm not trained for modem, but these are the basic troubleshooting. The while your computer is connected to the modem and then we make sure that the cable is okay. That goes to your computer. Thank you.
28:00
Speaker 1
It is unplugged. Okay, the model number, it says three eight zero one. Uh, I should escape. It's C-I-E-N-A. Yeah. Press the P-O-W-E-R button. It is a soft press.
29:00
Speaker 2
modem. Let's unplug the modem from the power source and we will give it 2 minutes while being unplugged. All right. Let me know once it's done unplugged. I'll have my timer here. All right, thank you. And while waiting for documentation purposes, may I have the model number of your modem? You may check at the back or at the bottom part. Normally, the model numbers start with letters then followed by numbers. [silence] And is there any brand name on your modem? Okay.
29:00
Speaker 1
Yes. Uh, yes. Uh, okay.
30:00
Speaker 2
Thank you. And just to verify your Internet service provider is Verizon, right? Okay, thank you. All right, you still have one minute left. Okay, we can now connect back the modem to the power source. And if you have a power Internet indicator on the top or in front of the modem, let's wait for it to go through blinking and we'll wait for, [silence]
30:00
Speaker 1
There's a, there's a power light that's solid green and then there's a light that says L O S that's, uh, solid red. Oh, it just, it just turned off. Now there's, now there's a solid green light that says X G S dash P O N and then a blinking green light that says 2.5 G.
31:00
Speaker 2
a steady solid light. Uh huh. Okay. Okay, loss that we check what that means, just for a moment. Okay, according to my resources, your loss of signal. That's the meaning of loss. If the light glowing red means the device is not receiving an optical signal from your internet service provider. But we'll give it one to two minutes. Right now it's blinking red. Ah, okay.
31:00
Speaker 1
GEL an. Yeah, it says connected. Okay. This is going to be free, right? Okay.
32:00
Speaker 2
OK, thank you. And we're now going back to your computer. We will check again the ethernet connection if it shows now connected. And we're going to test the internet let's open um a browser and uh search for speedtest.net. Yeah. Yes. Thanks for just checking your modem.
32:00
Speaker 1
Yeah so I'm on there and then it's showing me, it's showing me a bunch of stuff and it's telling me it says run a quick test to see your connections green. Test your internet speed. It's telling me add to Chrome. It's spread out. Is there a way to do this without adding it to Chrome?
33:00
Speaker 2
Uh-huh. You may know what's the result on the speedtest.net? Do you have the browser open? You can... type at the address bar of the website speedtest.net and it should route you to a speed test. Will it going to track the speed directly from the modem? Uh-huh.
33:00
Speaker 1
The browser that I have is yahoo. Best.com. Okay. That is also Um It brings me to the same thing.
34:00
Speaker 2
Is there okay so you how about let's try on other test website or speed test website fast calm you can type at the address bar fast calm Yes [silence] okay um do you have another browser to try like Google Chrome
34:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, I can go to Microsoft Edge. OK. Yeah, OK. So then I click go. It says connecting, oh.
35:00
Speaker 2
All right. and yes, please go. okay.
35:00
Speaker 1
start, um, it brings me to, um, but now it's just saying add, add to Microsoft, oh, never mind, here we go. Okay, it is, it'll be done here in a second, is running at 519.70 MB a second. Okay, it is back in the router.
36:00
Speaker 2
Uh-huh. Okay. ... Okay, no problem. All right, and you have 519 um speed result. So we're going to disconnect now the ethernet cable from the computer and connect it back to the internet port of the Linksys router. ... And let's check.
36:00
Speaker 1
so far it okay right now it is blinking blue solid blue right now okay
37:00
Speaker 2
The light front of the router if it shows blinking blue or blinking red. All right, so it's restarting, checking the internet. Okay, solid blue, we'll give it one minute more, we'll further check if it stays solid blue.
37:00
Speaker 1
It is still a solid blue. Okay here let me sorry let me log back in here. Okay. No. I do. I'm connecting on the common.
38:00
Speaker 2
All right, any changes, or is it just a solid blue light? All right, so we're going to test the Wi-Fi connection on your A computer, you may connect your computer to your linkse Wi-Fi. No problem.
38:00
Speaker 1
Computer, right now, I do think that it's working, because, yeah, the computer just connected and then we have a Google Home thing that shows on a display of the internet and right now it's connecting. okay. all right. Uh, no, ma'am. Thank you. You too. Bye. [silence]
39:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Uh, all right. All right. So, what would happen is something to do with the modem, it needs a restart in order to properly provide an internet if issue happened again. I would suggest you may check with your provider to double-check the modem itself because it will not give you internet right away, even if connecting a different device aside from the link— linksys router. All right, and I think we're all set. Anything else that I can assist you with linksys? Other questions? Clarifications? You're most welcome. This is once again Raquel. Thank you for calling Linksy and have a wonderful day.
