[REDACTED_PAYMENT_DIGITS] That's the warranty expiration. But as I've mentioned since your issue is about the blue screen that you see on your on the Linksys smart Wi-Fi, we have a work around a procedure on that and I can provide you a assist with regards to that because it has been a recurring issue with some of Linksys products. Yes. So. Yes, because your Linksys router model is an old classic type of router from Linksys and it happens that this Linksys router EA8300.
02:00
Speaker 2
So Yeah I can't Yeah Yeah Oh really So being out of warranty I can't get No firmware Updates either huh Oh
02:00
Speaker 1
100 has already reached its end of life, meaning it no longer have any security or firmware updates. But it's still working. The router is still working. It's just because it reached its end of life, there are no more available security or firmware updates for this router. But accessing the router settings, we can still access that because there is a workaround procedure for that. So since it's already late at night there, so just call us back again tomorrow. We're still open. So you can call us back or check your email tomorrow because I've sent the troubleshooting steps guidelines. Okay?
03:00
Speaker 2
Well, yeah, yeah, it's all right. So if I get another router, I have to I like
03:00
Speaker 1
That's not necessarily, it depends on the on your router, its model because there are Linksys, uh, products, um, the model, the uh, really need uh, the Linksys up to be downloaded. But, uh, usually, um, all Linksys products can be accessed through the web browser, um, 192.168.1.1. So, you can set it up using that, uh, web, uh, interface. Uh, there's really no need for the Linksys app. [silence]. If you, if, um,
04:00
Speaker 1
Only revert back to its factory settings? It may revert to it. No, it's only the factory settings like its Wi-Fi name and password. It will revert back to its default Wi-Fi credentials. Yeah. Your router is still working. Yeah. Your router is still working. You just need to access its settings to another work around procedure that we have. Yeah, others and a technical glitch or back issue with a LS smart Wi-Fi URL site. So that's why we provide you the other IP address.
05:00
Speaker 2
Okay. It won't affect the rot. It won't affect the firmware then, huh? Okay. Okay. uh oh. Hmm, it's still working. Good. So I just want a look inside there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know what happened there, but Yeah.
05:00
Speaker 1
The default router's IP address, the 192.168.1.1. And if you still could not log into that, we have another site that you can log into to access your router settings. Actually, what you see on the page when you log into 192.168.1.1 says, download the Linksys app. Uh, did you see a mobile image on that page? A picture of two phones? So, when it says download the app on the page, it doesn't show two image or picture of two phones? No. Because usually when you see the message,
06:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, it gave me the address to use and then it says you get the app here. I clicked, nothing happened when I clicked on anything. Milk
06:00
Speaker 1
to download the app. There is a picture of two mobile phones or image. And you can click on that because it will route you to the links of web UI. Or you can access the RARO settings to the page, when you see that page, download the app. You can click on the mobile image of the phone or you can scroll down because there is a link that says continue to LinkSys Smart Wi-Fi or click on local access.
07:00
Speaker 2
I'd rather not use a phone to get into my router, because I got a smaller phone. It's kind of hard to see all this stuff.
07:00
Speaker 1
Because your router is actually model EA8100, so it's really uh, accessible through the web UI and not their linksys app. All right. All right. Thank you for calling linksys Lawrence, and by tomorrow, check your email and also contact us if you need assistance with your concern, okay? Yeah, all right. Thank you for calling linksys again.
