04:00
Speaker 2
Now, um, since that the node is now solid purple, it means it's ready for setup. Let us just try to reconfigure it, because, uh, actually, if this is bundled with your internet service provider, it should have, uh, been, it should, uh, have been configured, uh, or, uh, or it because, uh, for, uh, for nodes that are bundled with the service provider, it has, uh, auto, uh, um, setup uh, feature. Sup. uh, so, but, for now, let us just set it up, like the usual, since it did not set up after the reset. Um, we'll use the five-press setup method. In the five-press setup, it needs to - all you need to do is press the reset button of the node, five, five times within five seconds. It's going to be like this.
05:00
Speaker 1
okay can I do it now? okay I did it. it's now blinking white. hello.
06:00
Speaker 2
Press release one, press release two, press release three, press release four, press release five. So one press each second or five times within five seconds. Yeah, go ahead. Yep, blinking way now. So let's just observe the indicator. It should turn solid blue.
06:00
Speaker 1
Okay it's solid blue now. yeah Okay let me try see if it works
07:00
Speaker 2
All blue. Let's just make sure that it's going to stay solid blue. And while waiting, please try to connect to the default wifi name.
07:00
Speaker 1
Okay, now it's blinking red. Yeah, yeah, something's going. [silence] oh [silence] Hey.
08:00
Speaker 2
So, try to check first the because blinking red says means physical disconnection, it means that the node is not detecting physical connection to the modem. So, we'll have to check the physical connection, which means that it's the connection between the modem, the LAN cable that is connected from the modem to the node. Finally, check to see if it's hooked up properly and make sure that it's connected to the right port of the node which is the internet. It is labeled internet.
08:00
Speaker 1
Oh where should it be connected the Ethernet cable? Ethernet or Internet? It's connected.
09:00
Speaker 2
on the node. The links node it should be on the Internet for so the one with lab Internet the yellow one. Okay. How about on the modem, sir? How many ports do you have on the modem?
09:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. Yeah, I just... I just have one, and it's connected to the internet one. Let me check. Yeah, I think it is.
10:00
Speaker 2
I mean on the modem, sir, the modem. the one from your internet service provider. How many ports do you have on the modem? Okay. Now, sir, the node still, uh, it took up properly, sir, the LAN cable, the end of the LAN cable. Both ends. Is it hooked up properly? Okay. Now, sir, since it did not change the light indicators, sir, of the node, we'll have to use a different cable. We need to isolate the issue first. Let us, uh, do you have an extra cable, sir, that we can use to swap it with this one that we're using? [silence]
10:00
Speaker 1
No, yes. Yeah, I do. Uh, I'm connected to the Wi-Fi right now. Yes. It says that this page cannot be reached. 192. Yes.
11:00
Speaker 2

16:00
Speaker 2
they scroll all the way down at the bottom. And can you please look for that uh internet table? Tell me where is the X marked on across the internet work. Okay, well, if that's the case, sir, it means that the problem with the router is uh it's a physical connection. The route it could be that the route or the cable is not working. So, I would suggest get a new cable. It's a LAN cable that should be um at least cat5 e or cat6. [silence]
16:00
Speaker 1
It not the cable that's green and that goes into my wall, right? Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh, LHA. Okay. You meant LAN. LAN cable. Okay. For a second. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I'll try something else.

17:00
Speaker 2
it's, it's a land cable, sir. It should be the one connecting the Linksys and the modem. yes, you see the, the, the one that's connected to your router right now, to the Linksys node, they must have, it should be Cat 5e or Cat 6. all right, so you
17:00
Speaker 1
should I do the five step reset again? you should you put this way?
18:00
Speaker 2
No, no, no, no, no, no, sir. It's already technically it's already set up. We just have to wait for the node to reboot and we'll have to and maybe expect that it should turn solid blue. Yes. Silence
18:00
Speaker 1
Okay, but it's like switch the cable and nothing happens. It's blinking red.
19:00
Speaker 2
Can you make sure, sir, that the cable is hooked up properly to the the other end of the cable should be hooked up properly to the modem. And on the other end of the cable on the internet port of the linkfix.
