03:00
Speaker 1
Did i i changed the modem no not lately. What's that. How long have i what this issue. Today. Today. Today. Party? [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
And also IFTS ma'am, uh, did you, uh, upgrade your subscribe Speed lately or change your modem? Mm-hmm. Not lately. All right. What since when did you observe ma'am with regards the um connection that you have that it's krip-on? How long have you observed this issue? Uh, How long did you observe or are you experiencing this issue that your connection gets um keeps getting disconnected? All right. So you, it's just?
04:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hm. Correct. There's no, there's no updated what? I don't know what you're saying. There's no updated what?
05:00
Speaker 2
[silence] so also I'm upon checking here just to set a proper expectation that your device was already out of runby and also there is no updated firmware for this router anymore. So it means since there is no updated firmware. There might be some connectivity issue. With regards to this, it will keep on disconnecting to your network and
05:00
Speaker 1
There are no more updates. So what am I supposed to do? Well, that costs a lot of money. I did that already. Mm-hmm. This morning.
06:00
Speaker 2
there is no, um, firmware updates. Yes, there's no more updates or software updates for this router that you have. Uh, what I can say to you, ma'am, is to purchase a latest router or buy a latest one. And also, you may try to unplug both the router and the modem from the power source and wait for 20 seconds before you plug it back in and observe the connection within 24-- we already did that one. uh, when did you do that one, ma'am? Like, I'm talking-- just this morning.
06:00
Speaker 1
Indeed. Uh, but I can understand just get a uh, get a uh, uh, right, I have cameras won't work, uh, Alexa won't work. The tablet might work once in a blue moon.
07:00
Speaker 2
right so you unplugged the modem and the router. and still the connection keeps on cutting in and out. Like it's disconnecting. all right. The last option that we can do here ma'am is we mean we will reset this router and once we reset this router ma'am just to set the proper expectation that if this device will be reset it will go back to its default settings all the devices that are connected to your router will be disconnected and you will be required to connect all of those devices again. So if you please open a small piece of paper and place it right below the reset buttons. then press it using some kind of stick to be able to push it back. Then hold it for 20 seconds. [silence]
07:00
Speaker 1
Oh, that's pretty hard. When did you stop updating? Well, it's been working since today.
08:00
Speaker 2
Be disconnected from your Wi-Fi, we'll be disconnected, and you need to set it up again. Yes, I understand that one man and also since this browser that you have, don't have any software updates or firmware updates, it will happen again that there might be a connectivity issue. Because your Spectrum modem keeps on updating their software, however, the router is not updating anymore. It stopped updating since July of 21st 2021. Yeah, I understand that it's still working and that's good to hear. So the last option that that we can do is we will reset the router.
08:00
Speaker 1
Well, I don't want you to do that if I have to reset nine. No, I don't want you to do that because I have 900 things that I gotta figure out how am I supposed to reset 'em all? And I don't know how. Um, quite a few. I don't know offhand. At least, um, two, three, four, five, six, Nine cameras, couple tablets, a couple of three Alexas, and some, I don't remember what else. Couple phones. That's that's the internet, correct? That's the Wi-Fi, correct?
09:00
Speaker 2
but it would take about an hour. Oh, I see. So how many devices are connected to your router? When you try to- yes, yes, ma'am.
09:00
Speaker 1
Mm -hmm. So a lot. It just says, keep saying it's offline, offline, offline. And then I try and it won't go back. And then it'll go back. And then if one goes back, the next one, the other one goes off. I've tried to turn those on multiple times today and I can't keep them on.
10:00
Speaker 2
Yes, that is correct. When you tried to connect your Alexander or your Ring camera, what was the error message? Have you tried to connect it back to the network manually? [silence]
10:00
Speaker 1
or just don't purchase any of them. Or don't get any of them and just get Spectrum Router. No, I can't do that. I can't have everything go out.
11:00
Speaker 2
All right, so, yes, ma'am. The last option is the reset, but it may work or may not work. I cannot guarantee you that once that it will go back the devices that are connected to your router will be connected again to the Wi-Fi since there's no software updates. So, what I can highly suggest, ma'am, is for you to purchase the latest one that will go up to your modem. I will respect your decision with regards to that one, ma'am, but the last option is to only reset the router and observe the connection within 24 to 48 hours.
11:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. So, I can't have that done. OK, then you can't help me. It's pretty much what you're saying. [silence]
12:00
Speaker 2
[silence] yeah, I understand that one, ma'am, but [silence] it was hard to do that one since all your devices are connected now to the Wi-Fi. [silence] um since you already did the power cycle on both the modem and the router, that's the basic steps that you can do, and yes, there's no other options rather than to reset the device. [silence] um yes, I understand that one, ma'am, but yeah, I really do apologize that I'm not [silence] [silence] I'm not able to assist you with this, ma'am, since that's the last option that I [silence] call for you to do that one.
12:00
Speaker 1
Okay, then. That's all I need. I don't. You can't help me. Okay doe, I won't buy their products anymore. Thank you. Mhm. Bye.
