Yes speaking. Well, our Internet connection is there like it works outside of the link stuff. But as soon as we try to plug it into the link stuff for it to work, it doesn't. It says that it's not working or it's not connected to the Internet. So the person I spoke with asked to know if the router is registered with Bell, our service provider. And it is. And then they asked me to find out the type of connection that we have, the configuration. And they said Bell said it's PP.

Right. Can you tell me from what's the light status of the main node, the one that is connected to your modem right now? All right, it's still blinking. Let's wait for about two to three minutes. Umm, all right.

07:00
Speaker 1
Computer had been on the setup V L O P setup 371 before. okay.
08:00
Speaker 2
Okay, so let's go back to the home page map that says Smart Wi-Fi. What does it say now? Does it still say no internet connection? Okay. So, here's the next thing you need to do. Tightly unplug both the modem and the router from the power source and wait for 20 seconds before you plug it back in. Yes. Yes, please. [silence]
08:00
Speaker 1
[silence] yeah, okay, both are unplugged. Uh-huh. Yeah. Okay. Okay, [silence] so the node is plugged in. Okay. [silence] Pardon. [silence] Okay, it looks like I have to go back upstairs to plug back in the node. The note is not plugged in yet. One second. Oh, what? Mom, I want to see Peep Pan.
09:00
Speaker 2
K-kindly plug in ma'am first the modem. All right. And then plug in the router or the node. All right. And let's wait for about two to three minutes until um, it's done starting up. All right. Mm-hmm. [silence] hhmm.

Speaker 1
Sorry. Yes. yes. Okay, on the screen on the computer, the screen on the computer says router not found, retry. Do I click that or just don't bother yet? Okay. Um. Mm-hmm. Sure. That's fine. [silence]
11:00
Speaker 2
All right. And the node is, one of the nodes is connected directly to the modem, right? direct to the modem. All right. OK, so let's wait for about two to five minutes. I'll set a timer. don't matter yet. Let's wait until the device is done booting up or your router is done booting up. I'll set a timer here. And is it okay if I put this on hold for about three to five minutes? I just need to pull some resources here, but that'd be okay. Okay. Thank you so much. Just stay on the line. I'll be right.
11:00
Speaker 1
Hi. Red. Solid red. red. Okay. Okay, let me just disconnect the line.
18:00
Speaker 2
Hello. Hello, ma'am. Yes. Thank you so much for patiently waiting on the line. Can you tell me, ma'am, what's the light status of the node right now? Or the one that is connected to your modem? It's so solid red. Um, if I may ask, ma'am, do you have a computer that you can wire directly to your modem? Can you wire your computer, ma'am, directly to the modem and let's try to check if this username and password that your ISP provided is working. Um, it's out of the scoop, uh, let me double check it here.
18:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Hello? Yes. Turn off the Wi-Fi. Yep. uh Windows on the computer okay. [silence]
19:00
Speaker 2
All right, so did you wire your computer, ma'am, to your modem? All right. And also turn off the Wi-Fi on your computer. Okay. And are you using a Windows or a Mac? Windows. Okay. So ma'am, can you go to the settings? Yes, on the computer.
19:00
Speaker 1
yeah Mm - Hmm. yes ok Bye. Ok. didn't give me that. It just said, you're already connected to the internet. no. It's basically said you're already connected to the internet so you don't need to like create a new one.
20:00
Speaker 2
and then go to network and internet. Can you see there dial up? All right. Then click set up a new connection. All right. And then choose connect to the internet. All right. And the next is select broadband PPP OE. All right. It doesn't provide anything. I have. One moment here.
20:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hm. Cause when I was at the network and internet, um, tab, then it does say, ethernet, connected, so it didn't really need anything else, I guess.
21:00
Speaker 2
[silence] [silence] I actually got it. [silence] Okay, I wanna hear that Mettle Beach
21:00
Speaker 1
No, it's been working before. We've had it for a few years. It was set up properly and then we had a power outage on Friday. The power was out for about six hours and then ever since then, when the power returned, it hadn't worked or it hadn't worked properly because it was still like kind of showing that it like, it was showing that it was existing, but it wasn't internet connected or something.
23:00
Speaker 2
And this router that you have, is it working before or is it your first time setting it up? Mm-hm. I got it. All right. Got it.
23:00
Speaker 1
[silence] Yes, we did like a five button reset or something. of the Linksys? It was, it was like a press and hold, or not press and hold, press and release five times. That's what the agent had me do. I don't believe I did that no. Not with the agent no.
24:00
Speaker 2
And with the previous agent earlier, you reset already this router, right? But did you press and hold the reset button of this one, ma'am? Or not? Yes. Oh, I see. All right, only press and release? No. Did not press and hold it? Like press and hold it for 20 seconds. All right. Got it. Okay. So, ma'am, here's the thing. We will do a hard reset with this router.
24:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Mm-hmm. So, I have a question, do I re-plug this back into the internet? Because at the moment, I had taken the cable out of that and put it directly into the computer. So, to the motor. Okay, one moment. [silence]
25:00
Speaker 2
and just to set a proper expectation, once we reset this router, ma'am, all the devices that are connected to your wifi, or to this router will be disconnected, but no need to worry, you can still use you can still use the same wifi name and password if you want your old wifi name. Alright. So ma'am, kindly press and hold the reset button of this router and observe the light and you need to press and hold. Yeah, you can do that one. Unplug it and plug it back into the router or to the node. Mhm.
25:00
Speaker 1
Okay is plug in, luck now to be and mode them so now I do want to go reset it. button okay now I will guess you can like very you had a beat on the gas so all the light has gone off but you said release it when a blue light shows off handy so plug plug
26:00
Speaker 2
Right yeah, can you press and hold the reset button of the node or device, or the Liza spreader until the lights went off and release once the blue light is showing. Yes, you may [silence]
26:00
Speaker 1
The blue light just, okay, the blue light just stop now. Yeah, I release the button the blue light had showed. Okay. [silence] We're stuck in that process. [silence] Fuck me. [silence] Yeah, [silence] I don't have anybody. [silence] We have a couple of reports that things are getting better. [silence] Yeah, they're serving the
27:00
Speaker 2
release release the reset button. And let's wait them for two to three minutes since it's still starting up.
27:00
Speaker 1
So, so we're basically back to Josh. Gummie-ans- No, not yet. It's still slashing or blinking slowly with the blue. But my computer screen just went back to like the Linksys app set up page. Oh, hold on. It's re-trying. Okay. Now the Node has the solid purple. Okay.
28:00
Speaker 2
And the LED status of this node should turn to solid purple or a pinkish red. All right. Mm hmm. All right. So yeah, kindly next step is press the reset button 5 times just like you did earlier with the previous agent. Like press release for 5 times. Not too fast and not too So
28:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. [silence] Right. It's back at like solid purple, oh, and now it's blinking white. [silence] All right. [silence] This is taking up so much of my day. [silence] It's so been a runaround. [silence]
29:00
Speaker 2
RC okay so dot blinking white okay. So let's wait for another two to three minutes ma'am, and let's try to check if the light status will change to solid blue. If it is successfully added or connected then, the light should be solid blue. All right. Yeah, my bad apologize.
29:00
Speaker 1
Okay, the light has gone to a solid blue. No, it's red now. I don't know if I saw that or not. Um, I'm gonna turn it back on and see if it goes away. I see the little rejuice icons and I don't see any oldest growth in that area. You may have to leave it and check it in the morning. But red is generally flashing in red is a mode charging. And it just stopped charging actually for my chair charger. So I'm gonna see if I can get it off and get it charging. Okay, um, let me turn it back on and see what happens. No, it's off. So that would indicate that the battery's completely dead. But it just didn't charge anything. Okay, let me go ahead and turn it off for a minute. Here, we'll see what happens here. I think you might be right. I think the battery might have been right. Red is flashing in red. Did you guys take that part out when I started? No, the light was red this whole time to you? Oh, okay. Have you changed the cartridges lately? Um, oh yeah the batteries. Okay, nevermind. They changed the entire cartridges on me. That makes sense. So yeah, there you go.
30:00
Speaker 2
Okay. let's wait for a minute or two ma'am, just to confirm. It will stay solid blue. Because it might change to solid red. Okay. One moment here.
30:00
Speaker 2
All right, so now it's solid's red, moments here. All right. And just to confirm, the cable is plugged in on the internet port, where there is a yellow label at the back of the router, correct?
31:00
Speaker 1
Okay. All right, so many things. Okay. Is this, there's a cutoff time for this all right? Yeah. Okay, just checking. Okay, so tell me again you want me to plug in my computer directly to the modem again? Oh got it, sorry I got that wrong.
32:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Can we connect again, your computer, ma'am, directly to the modem? I mean to the, uh, Linksys Wi-Fi, uh, no, ma'am. Kindly connect your computer to the Wi-Fi of the Linksys router.
