but this is the presentation already starting. I was referring to findings. Yeah, my name is E.J. Chopra, C-H-O-P-R-A.
09:00
Speaker 2
[silence] Thank you for calling INGV. My name is Nathan. May I know whom am I speaking?
09:00
Speaker 1
Sorry, say that again? Yes, for this matter, yes. I talked to you a few years ago when I set up the system, but then I haven't spoken to you since then. I'm having a minor problem with my developer. A-K-C-H-O-P-R-A, AK Chopra, 1949 at yahoo.com. It should be on the record. Okay. Okay, now, so I got a well-fed mesh thing, you know, I don't know, two, three, four years ago. And it's been working fine. And even now it's working great. So it was connected to my Wi-Fi.
10:00
Speaker 2
All right, is this your first time calling us sir? [silence] Is this your first time calling us? [silence] All right, you [silence] okay, okay? Uh let me create a case ticket for that. Do you have an email address? [silence] john@yahoo.com? [silence] Tell me what is the problem again? No, I don't have that data. Sorry. Tell me. [silence]
10:00
Speaker 1
and by mistake, I think I deleted my Wi-Fi connection on the app, which I was using fine, no problem. I normally I went to the wrong page or something, clicked something, and the Wi-Fi went away, you know. Just for the app. I mean, my Wi-Fi, the router, everything is working fine, you know, all the pods, whatever you call them. Pods, right? The child pod. Yeah. So notes, the node. So the main one and all the others are working fine, and I get my Wi-Fi connection properly, but I cannot go into the app because it doesn't connect to whatever Wi-Fi it was connected because I cannot get onto the app. So I went on the uh online and I tried to hook it up, and I say I'll look for the uh, you know, the main node, and it says it cannot find your router or whatever, you know. Cannot
11:00
Speaker 2
Thank you. Nodes. [silence] All right. Hmm.
11:00
Speaker 1
So, I, so I'm calling you. I just need to get this reconnected, the whole system. I mean, they, my app, actually, because all my information is on there already. All the connections are there, but I don't have the option to set up a Wi-Fi connection to the system because it doesn't take it. So, I cannot find your node. Okay. Yes. It's 20, J for Jack, 10, C for Charlie, 6, A for Apple. 737953. Yes, yeah. That's it.
12:00
Speaker 2
tell me what is the model and the serial number of your device. This is the main node, right? The mother node. [silence] you have a [silence] WHW3. [silence] now
12:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, I, I think I should be able to, that's what I was doing, but it's not letting me do it. It's not recognizing the notes, and I don't want to delete the app, you know, because, uh, I have all everything in there. So if I delete the app, everything will go away, you know what I mean? And I have to start all over again. You know what I'm talking about? My information. So I'd rather just connect to the note, the mother note, or whatever, it's the main note, uh, via Wi-Fi that I can go on the app and look at it. That's what I'm trying to do. Everything's system is working fine. Uh, you mean the Internet provider is Verizon?
13:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, we already disconnected. So, the online remote session with your Linksys app, you can connect it using, uh, access it locally. You must need to be connected in the network. Hmm. Correct. Yes. Hmm. Your internet service provider is at the spectrum or Xfinity.
13:00
Speaker 1
or FIOS not running the quality files now I think and I files so open the app you want me to open it okay all right right now I am I'm looking for a number so it's on that screen so uh where I am is um when I start I'll tell you when I started So when I go to link it says you haven't added outer mesh Wi-Fi system to your account All right
14:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. Right. Yeah. Okay, don't. Uh. Okay, can you close the app again and show me where this problem started? Close the app and open it. Yeah. And tell me what's the screen that you see. Yeah.
14:00
Speaker 1
That's what it says on top. That's the screen. And then it says, let's fix that. What do you want to do? I have two options. Add an existing router or mesh Wi-Fi system. Right? Or second is set up a new router or mesh Wi-Fi system. So, add existing router. All right. So then it says, add an existing router or mesh Wi-Fi system. Power on your router or mesh Wi-Fi system, which is on already. And then it says, connect to a Wi-Fi name. All right. I'm talking to you on the phone, which is through a Wi-Fi right now. I don't have service here. I my telephone. But then the thing is, and it says, connect to Wi-Fi name. [silence]
15:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. Did you select? Did you select that? Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Okay. What is the Wi-Fi? Are you connected to the Wi-Fi? Your phone? All right. All right, that's good. That's good. Okay, just click next then.
15:00
Speaker 1
so I, I guess it, yes. Yeah, so the one that was connected to, I put that name, all right? I connect to that. That's the one that it was connected before, okay? Um, and then it says tap the button below. So it says find my router, okay? So it's I say that and I'm looking for a router, please wait. And then it says, oops something went wrong. We can't detect your router. Okay, yeah. Name is Chopra c-h-o-p-r a. yes, yeah. I mean I've named that that connection and that's been from the very beginning. I've used this and you may even have that on
16:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, that's your WiFi. You are connected to it. Next. Can you go and open... Open the settings for your WiFi on your phone and tell me what is the name of the WiFi that you are connected to. Let's show your WiFi name.
16:00
Speaker 1
there, I don't know, my account. So, it's, uh, okay. So, I mean, it's Wi-Fi, it's password protected, but it's the same Wi-Fi I've used for years, many years. And it's working for other devices right now, that Wi-Fi. So it is functioning. The Wi-Fi is up and running, huh? Go ahead. Okay. Huh? When I had add working,
17:00
Speaker 2
We don't keep it. Stay with me. Let me find a solution. Stay with me. All right, I couldn't find it. Stay with me. Uh. Stay with me, Chopra. [silence]
17:00
Speaker 1
If I looked for, uh, Wi-Fi, uh, changed Wi-Fi, then it'll open a window, and it'll show it's [ 0m3s354ms ] Chopra. And that's it. That's the only one it was showing. Didn't you see all my Wi-Fi? So, um, I just to let you know. I have... No, no, I have other Wi-Fi's also. Uh, you know, I have another another small router, then, uh, and this wallop is working fine as a Wi-Fi. I'm not, I just can't, uh put the connection to the app. I mean, the message is working at my house right now. And Chopra, All right. You take care.
18:00
Speaker 2
you don't have any other wi-fi. So Verizon Fire doesn't have a wi-fi as well. Let me find a solution. Stay with me. I'm just wait. I mean a little bit in the middle is your router is already out of warranty since 2019.
18:00
Speaker 1
Yes, that's the thing. No, but I thought it'd be a very simple solution you know because it's not complicated. Now what you're saying is if I reinstall the router, I will not have to go to every device and reconnect it and all that, right?
19:00
Speaker 2
At 2020. Now, I am willing to give you something that I can troubleshoot for free. And if I hit a snag and we need to do a deeper troubleshoots, then I will offer you a paid support. But unless I can be assured that we can fix this one, I will not offer that one. So that's why I'm leaning, trying to find a solution. yeah. now, yeah. yep, we tried. And then I thought it was easy and simple. That was for free, usually. We just reconnect. Now, if we go to the other option, we select and reinstall the router. You remember, the information is stored on the router, not on the cloud, not on the app. You don't have to worry about reinstalling it. Just have to run through with this one.
19:00
Speaker 1
then you're saying I just install it as a new mesh no no I'm the only one at home right now well I don't mind you said $15 or $50 how much did you say yes I'll pay you that yes I'm okay
20:00
Speaker 2
As soon as you have the Wi-Fi name, the same Wi-Fi name and the same password, they will run through with this one. Okay. Now, okay. Okay. Is there anybody using the internet right now? Kids doing Wi-Fi? using it. Okay. Now, do you want me to send you the instruction on how to do it? That's for free. If you want us to stay on the line, there will be a charge of $15/hr. Sorry. what that is? Okay. $15/hr. 15. Okay. Okay. Stay with me. Let me prepare the system. Don't go. [silence]
20:00

If they turn it, is just the the mother node of the main node and take the power out. Take the power connection out. Uh huh.
34:00
Speaker 2
All right. Wait for that one. You're good. Something went. We couldn't find your order. Okay. Can you turn off the links if if we get disconnected and we don't want to call you on your landline. Okay, this is the sequence. This is the sequence that we need to do. We call it the power cycle. We turn off the router. Wait 15 seconds and then turn off the modem. We have power. Yes, okay. Okay. Okay. This sequence I listen to, uh, sequence is turn off the power of the main links.
34:00
Speaker 1
Y yes I have to disconnect the the ios also Yeah so now let me tell you the sequence and tell me if it's right I will take out the power cord from the link Node right wait for 15 wait for 15 seconds Then I will take the power source from my Verizon router alright wait for three minutes
35:00
Speaker 2
robot, wait 15 seconds, turn off the. Okay. If it has your vice and power P.I.O.S modem, you have a modem from P.I.O.S, right? And then turn it off. and then wait three minutes. After three minutes, turn it on. Only the Verizon P.I.O.S. Wait for the Verizon P.I.O.S to be stable. Once it is stable, turn power on the Linksys. All right. Let's do this one. Just if we do. Go ahead. Okay. Sequence is turn off the Linksys.
35:00
Speaker 1
then reconnect it, all right? And then see if it's my, Verizon is working properly, getting internet and my computer and all that. So once everything is doing well, then I go reconnect the node. Yeah, I'm the main node. Yeah, right? All right. So you wanna do that now? Right? Yeah. Yeah, you have both numbers anyway. So you can call either number. So I'm going to the main. [silence]
36:00
Speaker 2
correct. yes. mm-hmm. correct. the mother node therefore yes, main node, yes, that's it ok. yes, we'll do it now. if we get disconnected, I will give you a call in 3 minutes so that you'll have enough time to reconnect. go. Hmm? yes, thanks sis.
36:00
Speaker 1
you want me to leave it off right not hook it up after 15 seconds, right? Just leave it off. Okay. And now we're waiting for another 15 seconds. And then you want me to unplug my Cisco router. Okay. And everything will cut off, right? All right. Done that now. We need three minutes. I've taken the plug out completely so there's no power source going to it now.
37:00
Speaker 2
Yes. [silence] Yes. Just leave it at. [silence] Yes. Okay. [silence] Yes. So the verizon fire is is ready off.
37:00
Speaker 1
So, yeah, I didn't unplug it, I just pulled the wire out of the node. Do you want me to take the plug off or it doesn't matter? Yeah, but I mean, on the node itself, there's the power, you know the the no, no, there's not. What I mean, I just pulled out the cable from the node, but if you want me to take out the plug from the wall, I can. Because it's not connected, you know. So then the power cord and the node, I can leave it in. I'll leave it out. I already took it out. So, uh, now everything is out. The power cord and the plug is out.
38:00
