Hi, thank you for calling Lynksis. My name is Josh. [silence] Mm-hm.
00:00
Speaker 1
the uh, the main node um in my system it'll just flash flash flash and go two red and I've checked all the Ethernet connections.The Ethernet connections seem to be on securely, but um I can't figure out what else to do. [silence] It is Xfinity. [silence] Correct. [silence] I've restarted the modem several times and I've restarted the the router several times or the node several times. [silence] It is still showing solid red.
01:00
Speaker 2
I see got this one sir and I do apologize for the inconvenience as well uh... just to verify me I know who's your internet service provider? Xfinity. And I assume this nodes or these links to devices were working fine before correct? All right and did you already reboot or restart the modem which is the source of the internet prior calling us? And I assume the light on the main node is still showing solid red correct? I see.
01:00
Speaker 1
No, I did. I only unplugged and replugged. Did I, did I do that? Yeah. Should I try that? Yeah. So I have the Xfinity app. And when I pull it up, hold on, just a second, because I'm having to work off of my mobile hotspot right now. And my internet and my phone connection to make this is lack. So, if I go to Wi-Fi, it says you're online and it says no outages found. But it's got zero connected devices. And that's because the router is not connecting to it.
02:00
Speaker 2
and the reset buttons well on the main nodes or you didn't I see huh before we resolve it, like before we proceed further reset. Are you have a computer that can be wired directly to the modem to check if the modem is really online or has an internet connection.
02:00
Speaker 1
I think it's a now continue. Okay. Um, okay. So, um, for right now, you, you said, you said to try and restart the, uh, press the reset button on the bottom. Okay, go ahead. Okay. So, hold it down and don't, don't release it. So I'll see the solid blue light. [silence] [silence]
03:00
Speaker 2
I see. Yeah, for this one, Sir, we can try to reset and reconfigure the main node. However, if the issue persists, we really need a computer that can be wired directly to the modem for us to manually check if the modem has an internet connection. Uh-huh. Yeah, sir. So don't worry. I can walk you through on how to reset and reconfigure this main node. All right. So for reset, you may simply press and hold the reset button and do not release it until you see the solid blue light. All right. That's correct. Uh,
03:00
Speaker 1
All right. Solid blue light. Go ahead and let it go. Oh, actually, I've got a flashing blue light. Do I let it go? Serial number on the node.
04:00
Speaker 2
Yes. Please, you may now release the reset button and we will wait for its light to turn back to solid pink or purple or red for that indicates that the main node is on setup mode. So while waiting, sir, for the light on this May note, to turn back to those colors may have the serial number of this device. [silence]
04:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Here it is. It is... 20 J is in jar 2060 C is in cat 805452 no C for cat yeah there be. I'm going to say it should be 2060 C
05:00
Speaker 2
Mhm. thank you so much for that one. So let me verify again the serial number. okay. So it's 2. 0. J for jar. 2. 0. 6. 0. T for tom. 8. 0. 5. 4. 5. 2. Is that correct? T for cat. I see. All right. Got that one. And Mhm. Yeah. So it.
05:00
Speaker 1
20 Jays and jar. 2060. Seasons cat. 805452. It's the straight red. One, two, three, four, five. Yeah. It's like a, it's like a orangey color or Peach.
06:00
Speaker 2
Mm-hmm. All right, thank you so much for that, sir. And what's the light now on this main node? Solid red. So let's now reconfigure this main node using the five press setup method. So on the main node again, sir, just press the reset button five times within five seconds. So it's like press release, press release, press release. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. All right, thank you so much for that one. And is the light now on the main node starting to flash? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. That's fine. That means that the sorry, the main node is now transc
06:00
Speaker 1
Jonathan, J-O-N-A-T-H-N, last name is Della Cruz, D-E-L-A-C-R-U-Z. Email Address is the letter J, and then my last name Della Cruz, D-E-L-A-C-R-U-Z. The number 8-2@ Gmail.com. Correct.
07:00
Speaker 2
your [silence] modem has an internet connection. [silence] [silence] Yeah [silence] your first name and last name. [silence] Thank you so much for that one. [silence] And what about your email address? [silence] Thank you so much for that one. [silence] Scuse. Just to confirm your email address is jfjr [your] last name, which is [De la Cruz] 82@gmail.com. Correct. [silence] Thank you so much for confirming. [silence] And by the way, sir, I'm going to set your expectation regarding the hardware warranty status of your devices. [silence] So, according to here
07:00
Speaker 1
Is that right?
08:00
Speaker 2
Flow Gardener and the hardware warranty status of the device like your nodes are already expired And I really do apologize since the device since the are hardware warranty status are already expired we can no longer provide replacement for this one However rest assured that we can still provide you technical assistances in the future okay? All right so going back to to the issue uh what's the like now on the main node Solid red again correct? Flashing red. I see let's wait for one to two minutes I mean let's observe it's light for one to two minutes and however if the issue persists uh do you have a different Ethernet cable or extra Ethernet cable that we can like use to reconnect to the modem and to this main node?
08:00
Speaker 1
Oh, oh, so there is an Ethernet cable running from the modem to the main node currently. Or are you, are you wanting to, or you wanting to run the, the modem, I'm sorry, or are you trying to run the Ethernet from the, um, from the modem to the computer directly? Yes, yes, I do have that set up, yes. I do that, yeah. Yes. Yes, that's correct. Mm-hmm. [silence]
09:00
Speaker 2
[silence] All right, so yeah, that's [silence] and knows for current. [silence] I want the Linx node, like the main node will be spelled directly to the modem for now. Okay, that's great. [silence] And however, the light on the main node is still showing flashing red, correct? [silence] I see. I'm going to start your expectation if the light on the main node is flashing red, that means that it's not detecting the modem. So for us to isolate this one, do we have an extra ethernet cable that we
09:00
Speaker 1
used to...Oh, like a different ethernet cable.
10:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, like an extra, yeah, that's correct. Uh-huh. No worries, sir. And then cordless.
10:00
Speaker 1
[ Silence ] Now ethernet, I do not have. Let me go back over there and plug it in. [ Silence ]
11:00
Speaker 2
All right. I understand, sir. However, the light on the main node is still showing flashing red, right? Uh-huh.
11:00
Speaker 1
Oh, yeah. Still flashing red. What happened when you just won? Yeah. No. So what I have the only computer that I have is my work tablet. Actually, you know what? I'm sorry. Hold on. I do have a um, I have a docking station that has uh, Ethernet output IP. Yeah. Give me just a second. Let me set that up.
12:00
Speaker 2
I see. And I know how many ports this modem have. Just one. I see. I see. All right. So, uh, hmm. Sir, I just to confirm you have a computer that can be wired directly to the modem, correct? Mm-hmm. Like Ethernet adapter? Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
12:00
Speaker 1
yes my yeah my if you have a docking station that's all right I samey bear with me here that's correct yeaht w two plug directly into the wall and then one is the a regular node all right I'm going to this connect uh the modem from the node
13:00
Speaker 2
no worries, sir. Just take your time. And by the way, sir, just to confirm again, you have three linked accounts notes in total, correct? alright. Thank you so much for confirming.
13:00
Speaker 1
And I'm going to run yeah, yeah, and then I'm going to run it directly into my docking station. Give me just a moment. All right where could I see if the Ethernet cable is properly connected oh I'm sorry actually I'm sorry I've got to I'm sorry the modem still resetting because I had to move the modem and everything I'm sorry hold on if Ian, but yes, that's the setup it up that I'm going to have.
14:00
Speaker 2
Are you referring on? [silence] No worries sir. So, uh, for this one, we can check like however, I think we need to Ethernet cable for this one sir, because if possible, like the setup should be like a modem to the dog and dog to your computer is that the setup you were? Hmhm.
16:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, the USB. Yes, and they'll be the USB. [silence] [silence] Yeah, the Dell. Um, I'm the hold on with me. Uh, and then
17:00
Speaker 2
So if if that's the case, the computer or your uh laptop should still be wired directly to this dock or how is this laptop will be connected to the dock? Is it be uh the like USB C to USB A? I see. All right. And what's the model number of this dock? Sir, or yes Dock Station?
17:00
Speaker 1
I mean, it's a work computer. But yeah, it's a Dell. And, can't find a model number for it because they've gone in and changed everything to uh I guess, you know, Yeah. So how would I check this, so how would I check on the hard wired side to see if it's online?
18:00
Speaker 2
Well, I see. I understand, sure. So, yeah, since your modem is already wired directly to this docking station, and your computer is connected to the docking station. Can you check if your computer is able to get online? silence.
18:00
Speaker 1
I mean, I don't see anything blinking. Windows 11. Yes, Windows 11. No, I uh, I mean, I can try. I don't know how far it's gonna let me go. Man prop.
19:00
Speaker 2
Sorry, can you check if your modem and the Doc station, like on their ports, is there a LED or light indicator there? I [silence] Because if they do, they should be blinking. Oh, right. I see. If that's the case, don't worry, sir. If that's the case, we will manually check on your computer instead. So may I know the operating system of the computer? Like is it a Windows or is it 11? Uh, since this is a work computer, I assume you cannot like access the command prompt or CMD on this computer. Yeah.
19:00
Speaker 1
Okay, yeah, I've got yeah. I pulled up a command prompt. Uh huh. Oh, IP IP IP config. Okay, I got it. Yep. Hold on. You said IP config space, uh, you said forward slash. Uh, hold on. Let me find my. And let me find my forward slash. Okay. So IP config space, uh, forward slash, and then what else? All. Okay. And then hit enter. Okay. [silence]
20:00
Speaker 2
O.K. that's great. So on the command prompt, kindly type in "ip" like "India Papa," "config," spelled as "Sieper Charlie, yeah," "ipconfig, yeah," "ip config," yeah, "ipconfig face forward slash" and then "all" like A L L and then press Enter. [silence] All? Like A L L? And then press Enter, yes please. [silence] Alright so under, can you look.
20:00
Speaker 1
[KEEP_UNCERTAIN] Uh, no. No. Okay, so. Oh my god. All right, I'm just going to read this to you. Uh, IP config, forward slash all departs, forward slash renew adapter, release adapter, renew 6 adapter, release 6 adapter, + gloss DNS, display DNS, register DNS, show Class ID adapter.
21:00
Speaker 2
I see None. Uh, what are, what are the options you can see on the screen right now? [silence] Mm-hmm. [silence] Mm-hmm.
21:00
Speaker 1
Mm, set class ID adapter show class ID six adapter. that connection name. Yeah. There's nothing that specifically says, the only thing I see here says IP config forward slash whole release. And that says, release alla matching connections, Ethernet connection or wired, connection. That doesn't show anything. [silence]
22:00
Speaker 2
Etteras [silence] Mm-hmm. [silence] Um, right. [silence] Yeah. [silence] So, since you had like actually pointed out all that stuff [silence] like, when you said, let's say this route word 12, like, are they currently showing as media disconnected? [silence] Mm-hmm. [silence] Yeah, for this one sir. [silence] Uh,
22:00
Speaker 2
need to have a different Ethernet cable for us to isolate. However before we conclude that there's something wrong with the cable, uh, we will like plug the Ethernet cable into another port on the Linksys main node, and then we will reset again the node. If the the issue persists, like it's still flashing solid red, uh, that's the time that we might need to uh, get another Ethernet cable since we already tested the both ports on the main node, okay? and don't worry, sir, and if the issue persists, please be assured that you can just give us a call if you need further assistance regarding the main node. So for now, let's focus on like resetting this main node again. So yeah, you may now disconnect again the Dell uh keyboard and plug in the Ethernet cable from the modem into the other port now on the main node.
23:00
Speaker 1
because I gotta take the module back to Southern sign reconnected. It's going to have to restart the system. Okay. [silence]
24:00
Speaker 2
Yes, please. And kindly take your time as well.
24:00
Speaker 1
uh... You don't have to. I just reconnected the modem. So the modem's having to reset. It's uh, it's a surfboard. The Ares surfboard. [silence]
25:00
Speaker 2
Hello sir how is it going there. Got that one. By the way, just to confirm, can you also tell me the model number of this modem?
25:00
Speaker 1
And it's an SB 6190. Yeah, the main node has been plugged back into the modem. But now, like I said, I had to, I had to reconfigure some stuff. Um, the modem's been plugged in newly. So it's resetting itself really quick.
26:00
Speaker 2
speaker badly got it one.
26:00
Speaker 2
No worries, sir. And thank you so much for your patience and for this one , uh-huh. Uh-huh. Got that one. However, this time the ethernet cable is now plugged into a different port on the main node, correct? All right. So let's try again to isolate this issue for this one. So you may now restart again this main node, sir. So again, to restart, just press and hold the reset button.
28:00
Speaker 1
okay. All right, I've got a flashing blue light. Is that, okay? If my phone is able to detect what now?
29:00
Speaker 2
Yes sir, flashing blue is fine. And we will also check if your computer or phone are able to detect the default name of this menu. [silence] ah,
29:00
Speaker 1
still flashing and it just it just turned red
30:00
Speaker 2
Default wifi name of this Linksys is main node. However, for now, let's just wait for its light to turn back to solid red or purple. [ silence ] Uh hello sir, what's the light now on the main node? Still flashing blue? Okay, great. So, uh,
30:00
Speaker 1
Yes, I see it here on my phone. OK. One, two, three, four, five. OK. Yes.
31:00
Speaker 2
the computer for now, kindly check if it can detect the default name of the main node, which is underscore vloid setup, 3af. Okay, great. So let's now press the reset button again on the main node, five times within five seconds. So again, just press release, press release. and the light again on the main node started to flash, correct? Okay, great. So, again, let's observe again, it's light for 120 minutes and hopefully, it will turn to solid blue this time.
31:00
Speaker 1
[silence] That is , that's correct. They just plug in directly into a an electrical outlet. Uh-huh. Yeah, I'm sorry, say that again? Correct. Correct. Correct. They do not. Okay. So it was flashing on
32:00
Speaker 2
So just to verify, sir, the other child nodes, they're just like plug in, like they don't have their own power adapters, is that correct? I see. So those are extenders for this one. And I assume they don't have internet port as well, like on their devices. So, uh so I assume they don't have like internet port or LAN port on those devices as well. Yeah, so, all right. So, in this situation, we can only like uh isolate this main node since we don't have another device that can be swapped or yeah, replaced for this specific model. So, however, sir, again, uh let's observe the connection or light on the main node for now.
32:00
Speaker 1
orange and now it turned blue and now it turned red. [silence] flashing red. [silence] okay. [silence] I do see right here develop setup 3aS and underneath it it says internet not available. [silence] okay. [silence] good. [silence] okay. [silence] M. uh-huh. [silence]
33:00
Speaker 2
I'm sorry, sir. Is it flashing red or solid red? Flashing red. I see. All right. Let's wait for another 30 seconds or a minute, sir, just to make sure. All right. Yes, sir. So that's normal, since again, flashing red indicates that the link sys node or the main node is not detecting the modem. So, for this one, we have three possible reasons for this. The first reason is it could be possible that the port on the modem, which is the source of the internet is defective. The second one is it could be that The the third, the third option is the ports on the main node. However, since we already tested two ports, uh, it is also odd, like both ports at the same time does not work. So for this one sir uh after a minute, again, if the light on the main node is still flashing red Um I really do apologize but to further isolate this one Uh, I'm afraid we really need to buy or purchase uh another ethernet cable for us to isolate because it could be possible that the issue has something to do with a cable itself. Mhm. And don't worry, sir. Again, if the if you need further assistance uh, feel free to give us a call because rest assured that we are always happy here to assist you. And I will be also providing you a ticket number so that the next technician can easily pull out your record.
33:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Um, uh, no, give me just a second. Go ahead with the ticket number? One, three, five, nine, four, four. Okay. Okay. Okay. Sounds good. All right. Thank you. You too. Bye-bye. [silence]
35:00
Speaker 2
Are you ready? Ready to ticket number? No worries. Oh, yes. It is 1, 3, 5, 9, 44. Yes, sir. So again, if you have a new Ethernet adapter that we can uh use for further isolation, just give us a call, okay? I rest assured that there is no need for you to explain again all the steps uh, all the troubleshooting steps that we just made since I have already documented it here. All right. All right. So again, sir, I really do apologize for the inconvenience and thank you so much for calling Linksys. Have a great day. You're most welcome. Bye for now.
35:00
