morning. My name is Mike. I have an MX 53. Hi, I have an MX 5300. I have a question. Can I still purchase additional modes for that? I can't seem to find any online, or is there an alternate mode that I could use? Okay, so any MX series could be added to that system. Okay, that makes sense now. Because I couldn't find that exact 5300. I wasn't sure if it was going to work.
22:00
Speaker 2
um You can find the same model as your MX 5300 you can find other MX series like MX 2015 MX 55 as long as they're all MX series they can be added to your MX-53. Yes. OK so you can find are just make sure that those MX series are the same.
22:00
Speaker 1
Yep. Okay. Okay. Yeah, this this is just a Wi-Fi 6 it's a few years old so the it's probably what just a standard is a cognitive is that what it is? A node? Yes. In my parent node, so I have two nodes now. A parent and a child. The parent node.
23:00
Speaker 2
Mesh type or... intelligent or cognitive one, because if you bought an MX series, which is a cognitive nodes, you will have to set that as the parent node, since the cognitive Mesh node are more advanced compared to an intelligent mesh node. Yes, let me check, uh, since you're node is an MX 5,300. Let me check.
23:00
Speaker 1
Does it also broadcast Wi-Fi? It does. Yeah, because I could see it connected, but when I look on the app it just shows it looks like an ethernet connection. It's not showing that it's broadcasting Wi-Fi. But the blue light is on. I'm just having, Eating to the internet. Gotcha. Okay, yeah. Okay. Yip. Okay.
24:00
Speaker 2
Yes, your parent node, it's the main, it's the main router. So it broadcasts, broadcasts Wi-Fi. In fact, all your child nodes rely to your parent node. Yes, yes, the app will show you that it's wired because it is wired to your internet provider modem, but it still broadcasts your Wi-Fi connection. Your question about your MX-53 series, these nodes belong to the intelligent mesh nodes or series. So if you bought an intelligent mesh node, it could be added to your MX.
24:00
Speaker 1
okay. Gotcha. Okay. Okay, so I just gotta stay in that intelligent mesh node network and I'll, I'll be able to add it right to it. Okay. Okay. Gotcha. Yep. Okay. 2055 and 85

Speaker 2
6300 as a child node. But if you bought a cognitive mesh node, cognitive mesh nodes are an example of them are MX 6300, MBE 7000, and LND 100. Yes. Because if you get a cognitive mesh node, you will have to set up again your mesh system and make the cognitive mesh node as the parent node because they're more higher in terms of technology and performance compared to an intelligent mesh node. But if you get an intelligent mesh node, usually MX 2000, MX 5500, MX 8500, they are all intelligent mesh nodes. So you can add them to your MX 6300. Just be careful of the
25:00
Speaker 1
Yep. Okay. Okay. Put you, excellent. Well, that's what I will look for. That's all. Thank you so much for your help. You have a great day. Thank you. Thanks. You too. Bye bye.
26:00
Speaker 2
Yes. Just be careful of the Mx, sixty two hundred, MBE seven thousand and the LN, Dewitt, because they are all cognitive mesh nodes. All right. Is that all, sir? Yeah? You're, you're welcome. Thank you also for calling. Once again, take care. Have a great one. Bye.
