This is Lynx is technical support calling. This call is recorded for quality assurance. Please hold as we connect you to a Lynx is specialist. Uh, hi Benjamin, this is Paulo from Lynx's customer assurance team, Level two, and this call is recorded for quality assurance purposes. Hello sir. Hi, hey, thank you for asking Benjamin. Okay. Okay. Mhm. All right. Mhm.
00:00
Speaker 2
Yes. How are you? My system is down. And right now my system is flashing a blue light. It was red. And this happened once before, and the lady told me never to reset it. And what, I'll tell you what I did, I unplugged the power.
00:00
Speaker 1
okay okay now Benjamin I want to verify those nodes that are blue colored okay now uh you just mentioned that you power cycled it uh is it the one okay all right uh yes okay yes uh that's what I'm trying to verify Benjamin which ones are blue and red now you just said that um the node is red is that the parent node or main node sir or a child node okay
01:00
Speaker 2
And i unplugged the uh cable going from the rotor to the router i mean and then i plugged everything back up again And right now my light is blue It was red and now it's blue Okay now up now the blue light just turned red As we're talking Yes Yes
01:00
Speaker 1
alright. Now, um, you have three nodes in total. So that would mean that the other two will be the child nodes. Are they in the same location of the parent node? Um, Okay. Now, um, we're not going to do a reset, Benjamin. Okay? Uh, we're just going to do a power cycle. All right? Now, uh, it's kind of different to what you did earlier. Alright? But let me give you first the instruction, okay? Now, um, I, okay, I believe your internet service provider is Spectrum. Am I correct there? Okay. Now, uh, there is a modem that they, uh, that they, they provide you previously. That's a modem, right? Okay. Now, does the parent node and modem have the same power outlet? [silence]
02:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yeah.
02:00
Speaker 1
or is it's separate? separate okay now um here's what we're going to do okay this is this is called complete power cycle Benjamin so I'd like you to unplug the power adapter of the parent node first unplug it I'll let you know when to plug it back in okay now I'm going to ask you to unplug the power adapter of the modem also but before we do that I have a question is your phone connected to your modem right now as we speak? I just want to uh avoid to to be disconnected sir it's not connected
03:00
Speaker 2
Separate. Okay. Okay. I unplugged the power to the parent now No, it's No, it's not
03:00
Speaker 1
Okay. We're going to proceed. I'd like you to unplug the power adapter of the modem now. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Obviously, they're both unplugged right now, meaning there is no power to it, no LED status. Now, Benjamin, you just told me earlier that the power adapter of the parent node and modem are separate. Okay. Um, I'd like you I'd like you to replug the power adapter of the parent node first, and quickly replug the power adapter of the modem as well, as fast as you can. [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
OK. All right. The, the, uh, phone should keep working. You have my phone number. So I'm going to unplug the power to the modem. Now, oh, long 1 second. All right. I did that. Yes. Yes. OK. What is... OK, we're good. We're both plugged in. The spectrum modem blue light is flashing really, really fast. And the... link device has a blue light also. OK, OK.
04:00
Speaker 1
It's okay. We'll wait for it. Two minutes are good. I see. Well, I'm Benjamin. Here's the... While waiting for that two minutes, let me explain that part there, okay? The parent node is called a pass-through device. So where's the child nodes, okay? Now, the modem is the source of the internet. Okay? Now, I'll say, it says here that there's an audi. This
06:00
Speaker 2
And now the parent node has just turned red. Okay. I don't know why this happened. This is the second time that this has happened. Okay.
06:00
Speaker 1
going on, right? So, um, uh, we're – there's actually two things that we're going to check: the modem and the parent node. But, um, usually, we check the modem first, Benjamin. But right now, uh, we're not. Uh, no, sir. We, we, uh, we only support the Linksys product. But there is a way that we can check it. Uh, we're gonna do that later. Let's try this simple troubleshooting first, okay? So, um, the only – oh, by the way, while waiting, it's almost done here. Uh, to check if the modem is working fine, okay? That is to remove the parent node from the modem and connect a computer directly to it. That's how we check it. The second way is you're gonna call Spectrum. But we're not gonna do that yet. [silence]
07:00
Speaker 2
OK. [silence] A ton of stuff coming up. So the darker blank parts are. [silence] So basically my Internet's down right now.
07:00
Speaker 1
okay. but let's check this one. [silence] Is it today? [silence] All right. Okay, good. [silence] All right, going back, uh the two minutes is over, Benjamin. Is the parent node back to white, solid red, or blue? [silence] Red. [silence] Okay, Benjamin, I understand that you don't want to reset the parent node, okay? Uh I'm not going to ask you to reset that, but we're going to check the modem. Now, if I'm going to ask you to remove the parent node from the modem and connect a computer directly to it, do we have a computer that we can wire temporarily?
08:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, I get that. I, I, I called, I called them already just to make sure and they're going to, they're going to, they're coming out here at uh, between six and seven. Yeah, they're coming today. Uh, uh, uh, yes.
08:00
Speaker 1
There is. Okay, perfect. Is that going to be a desktop or a laptop, sir? A desktop. Okay. So let's disconnect the parent node first and then wire the computer to the modem. Let's do that. Let's check your modem. Maybe spectrum won't go to your house anymore later. If that's the case. All right. Oh, okay. I see. Well, anyway, Ben, Mm-hmm. Well, uh that's you're right about that. Okay? That's how you observe it. Okay? We're not trained for modem. But
09:00
Speaker 2
A desktop. Well, before I even do that, I can tell you that the spectrum modem is not working since I unplugged it and plugged it back in. I'm looking at the light right now. The internet light on the spectrum modem is not working. It is not blue the way it's supposed to be. It is white.
09:00
Speaker 1
uh, from us, uh, router manufacturer. The only way we can check it with the customer, though that device is not ours, is to wire a computer directly to it, and if it goes online, that's what, that's what, that's the time that we will know. Can we check that, Benjamin? Anyway, uh, Spectrum will... Okay. Yes. Now, uh, you can just disconnect the cable at the
10:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. It's uh, okay. the the spectrum modem. Let's see if I can do it find out it's what hold on one second. It's coming from there. D you think. One second. you want me to run the wire from the modem to the computer, right? [silence]
10:00
Speaker 1
the back of the parent node, and connect it to the computer, sir. Simply like that. To make it easy. Okay, is this a desktop or laptop, Benjamin? Okay, there are two ways, actually. Okay. Take your time, sir, it's going to be puzzling, if that's the case. [silence]
11:00
Speaker 2
okay. I'm trying to find where would I plug it in on the back of the computer. This is a desktop. uh, I I I see it now. One sec. I got a lot of cables here. I got to make sure I got the right one. Okay. Okay. This is the cable right here. Okay. This is the cable. I'm tracking the cable. So I need to take the cable from.
11:00
Speaker 1
yes uh yes sir I do you do sir yeah you know um this okay all right Okay. Now, Benjamin, okay? I know you're going to do that. Spectrum pay people will come to your place. Now, I'd like to set your expectation. We have identified the problem, okay? That the modem is not working fine. Yes, sir. You just said that it's,
12:00
Speaker 2
You know what I'm gonna have to do? You have my phone number, right? Okay. I have a ticket number. I'm gonna have to- I'm gonna have to call you back after the Spectre- let me- let me tell you what's happening here. I'm gonna have to call you back after the Spectrum guy comes because the Spectrum modem is not receiving a signal. So it- it's-
12:00
Speaker 1
Yes. Yes, sir. Now, before, I'd like to set your expectation, okay? Now, if ever that spectrum people can make your computer go online when it's wired directly to the modem, okay? That's, great. Because, um, we know that the modem is working fine. However, uh, I may have to set your expectation to the parent node, okay? That's the time that we're gonna do a complete reset to the parent node, okay? The reason behind that, because since there's a new, uh, an active signal from the modem, we want the parent node to re-detect that. Now, I understand a lot of people don't wanna change, don't wanna reset the parent node because [silence]
13:00
Speaker 2
Yes, the Spectrum modem is not receiving a signal now. When I unplugged it and plugged it back in, it stopped receiving a signal. Okay. Yes.
13:00
Speaker 1
Do you have that in a piece of, okay, now, once the parent, um, put back the exact wifi name and password, I don't know how many devices do you have in the network, but if you're using the same name, wifi, uh wifi name and password, they will just reconnect, sir, okay? I understand that part why you don't want to reset that. Do you have a copy of that, Benjamin? Like the exact wifi name and password? For example, uh, the wifi name is Benjamin Network, is it a mix of upper case or lower case? It has to be exact, sir, so that they will recognize the same name. Do you have a copy, right?
14:00
Speaker 2
Yes, yes, yes, okay. Yes. I have a copy of the um
14:00
Speaker 1
[KEEP_UNCERTAIN] Perfect. Now, Benjamin, you don't have to call Level 1 just to reach Level 2, okay? I'm going to give you the Level 2 number, and that way you don't have to call the number of Level 1, okay? You have the ticket number with you. So that's not going to be a problem. Ah, yes, you've got the right one, sir, okay? So, um, yeah, just to give you the since the ticket is escalated to the Level 2 team is going to change a little bit, Benjamin, okay? Uh, just the first two letters. It's going to be TE, that's Tom Edward. That's stands for Technical Escalation, okay?
15:00
Speaker 2
hor name and password and I have a copy of the password for the parent mode and all the child modes Okay Yeah the ticket number is The ticket number is one one five zero two seven Okay Okay Tom Edwards
15:00
Speaker 1
And then zero, zero, zero. Okay, three zeros three zeros. And then one, one, five. 07. Yes, sir. And our level to support number, if you're ready as well, that's going to be uh two one three, two eight nine. 3408.
16:00
Speaker 2
two zeroes three zeroes 11507 so that's T-E zero zero zero one one 507 okay 21289. 3, 4, 0, 8. I'm just going to repeat it.
16:00
Speaker 1
okay. I just want to make sure so that you can reach us. Sometimes my mind slips giving that number. Let me just um take a second to look, okay? One second, sir. Apologize. Now, by the way, while I'm searching here, I would like to inform you, okay? Now, Spectrum people will go to your home later, okay? Now, um, it has to have that the desktop wired currently directly to the modem. It has to get internet connection, okay? You can at least open three websites, sir. Or maybe five. That's a confirmation that the modem is working fine, okay? All right, hold on. Where's that number? I know I have it yesterday.
