Um, can I have first the model number and the serial number of your Linksys device? Just try to look underneath it. Okay. And do you see anything that says model number? Oh. Okay.

02:00
Speaker 1
up when I went to sign in yesterday, you kept saying, what's the guest password? And I'm like, I'm not a guest. I don't know why it keeps coming up. What's the guest password? I have no idea what the guest password is. You mean like Spectrum? You mean on my computer? This is just the norm. Uh it says Linkin Linksys Smart Wi-Fi, and it's got [REDACTED_CARD_NUMBER]. Linksys Smart Wi-Fi.
03:00
Speaker 2
If you go to your wireless icon at the bottom right hand corner of your screen, uh, do you see your main network? No, not Spectrum. Yes, on your computer, if you click on the wireless icon and you look for available networks, do you see the links network there? [silence] No, not that.
03:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Yeah. Bottom row Sam. Uh, I think so. I don't know that much about it, but it says Linskies it says L-I-N-K-S Linskies and then it's got a search, task manager, log, taskbar, windows. Yeah, I think windows. Um, well, yeah, I haven't plugged in. I never used wireless. Yeah, it's. [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
the router, man, but in your computer, if you, if you go to the, to the wireless icon at the bottom right hand, if you're computer running on ex- on Windows, yes, so if you see there the the wireless icon, do you see the wireless icon, how do you connect your computer to your wireless network? It's hard wire.
04:00
Speaker 1
Oh yeah, it's plugged into the router, but I plug it in, cuz the battery don't work on the computer, so I plug, plug it in to the wall. I don't use the battery, but yeah, I'm wireless. I see speaker. Right. And then all it says is internet access Lanensky 00125. Uh, yeah. Yeah. Uh, 5G. Yeah. I just have one computer hooked up. Yeah.
05:00
Speaker 2
It's not plugged into the LinkSys router. Okay, that that computer is wirelessly connected, right? Okay. So it says internet access and you're connected to LinkSys 00125. Is that your main network? Okay. Yeah, so we're you're actually connected to the main network, ma'am. So where do.
05:00
Speaker 1
When I was trying to get in last night, it just kept coming up and saying, um, you need a guest. I couldn't get into the computer. It kept saying, put in your Laninski's, um, password for a guest. Yeah, it's saying, guest access. Enter the guest access password to access the internet. If you don't know the password, ask the network owner. The password can be found using Leninski Linksys Smart Wi-Fi tools. And then it asks for the guest password and the login. And I'm like, I don't know. I'm not a guest, so I don't know. How would I know the password?
06:00
Speaker 2
Does it ask for the guest password?
06:00
Speaker 1
Probably at least two years. Oh, God. No, no. Uh-uh. Oh.
07:00
Speaker 2
Let me just verify. Uh, actually, ma'am, um, let me set your expectation that this router is actually, uh, it's out of warranty. How long have you been using this? Mm-hmm. Because it shows our system that you do still have the receipt. Okay. Yes, because it shows our system that the device is already out of warranty. So, that just means it's no longer covered for free technical support. So, what we can do from our end, ma'am? Yes. Is, uh, we can, since right now, okay, um, it's, it's asking for the guest, uh, password, we may need to, verify the wireless settings of your router, of the Linksys router, and, uh, for out-of-warranty devices, we can give you two options, okay? To either, you go for our website, which is support.linksys.com. Okay, we do have their list of articles.
07:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Well, I'll probably just go with another I'll probably just go with Spectrums router then cuz it's free. Okay, well I don't know why this popped up all the sudden, but it did. All right. Well, then I will call Okay. Well, so it's not anything y'all did? [silence]
08:00
Speaker 2
you can find the list of articles related related to your concern. All right. And you can also take advantage of our AI tool at the bottom right. So, that's the first option. Second option is our Paid Connect service. So, that will cost you $[REDACTED_PAYMENT_DIGITS] It's just a one-time payment lasting for [REDACTED_PAYMENT_DIGITS] minutes of troubleshooting time. So, if you wanted to walk you through the process, there's a fee for the service and that would be $[REDACTED_PAYMENT_DIGITS] Because, um, we apologize for that. Well, we can actually, what we can offer, as I've mentioned earlier, is our website. So there's a need for you to verify the worr
08:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Uh huh. All right, well, I appreciate it. Thank you. Uh huh.
09:00
Speaker 2
Because it seems that the guest-disable- splash page, the guest network access feature on your router is being turned on and your computer automatically connects to the guest network. So there's a need for us to to trouble shoot that and to verify that. Yes. Not a problem, ma'am. I do appreciate your time. And, uh, again, this is just, uh, for more information, just please visit our site support.linksys.com. This is Abby from linksys. Thank you for calling. You do have a great day. Take care.
