Seems to be okay at the modem and at my desktop but the links to the TV out in the other room such are not good. Wonder if you could help me. Yes. Yes. Who's my service provider? Spectrum. Yes, correct. Yes. Well, yeah, yeah, I'd say it's been
01:00
Speaker 2
Okay, just to verify if I got your concern correctly. You're calling about slow internet connection. Am I right? Okay. Who's your internet service provider? Yeah. Is it Spectrum? Okay. And am I talking to John Tuber? Okay. And just verify your product that you're calling for, model number is MX6200, is that correct? And since you're calling for slow internet connection, since when did you observe it happened? Is it already a week?
01:00
Speaker 1
Well, then, uh more than that uh I just uh gradually notice stuff getting slower on the TV, y'know, more buffering and all that. And I just finally checked but it says it's been going on for a couple, y'know, maybe a month or something like that. Uh, I'm paying for 500, I'm actually getting 600. Uh, how do I, how do I do that on the linksys? I just did one on the TV to the linksys, and they got like sub- said the spectrum was giving me 604, but at the TV, which is just in the next room.
02:00
Speaker 2
okay, if that's the case, then what's the subscription speed that you have from Spectrum? What's the speed that you're paying for? Okay. 600. Can you run a speed test right now connected to Linksys Wi-Fi? What device is that?
02:00
Speaker 1
Do you want me to repeat? Right, now what if I want to do that? As far as like, do I have to do it on my, yeah. Speedtest.net. Is that, okay, speedtest.net, Google search, okay, is that the one speedtest by Ookla? Okay. Please press that.
03:00
Speaker 2
Mm hmm. Hmm. Hmm. When you're on a speed test, when you're right next to the main node, I would like to know if the main node can detect 500 speed. Yeah, the main one right next to the main one. Uh hmm, just open a browser and let's use the third part website. It's going to be speedtest.net. access speedtest.net. Uh hmm, yep.
03:00
Speaker 1
and go, it's working on it. Right now I'm doing the speed test on the desktop. Says my download speed is 559. At the desktop, yeah. That is yes, it is. I didn't have it wired yesterday and I tried it and I was only getting like, I don't know, 50 or 60 something like that. Didn't realize I didn't have it connected up. Anyway,
04:00
Speaker 2
Is that an iPhone? The device you're using now? A desktop. Okay. So, it's a Windows desktop? 559 Mbps. And is that wired directly to the parents node or not? Mm. Okay, all right.
04:00
Speaker 1
Right. Okay. Well I'm on an iPhone now and the problem one I'm having problem with primarily is the TV in the next room.
05:00
Speaker 2
that's actually good, John. We have wired speed right now, which is the right one because you're paying for 500 and BPS, and right now the wired connection is getting 559. So there's nothing wrong with the wired speed. Now let's check the wireless speed. Do you have a device like iPhone iPad or Android phone? Mm-hmm. Yeah, we'll gonna um, focus that one later. For now, let's focus first if the parent node is providing enough speed, because if it's slow, the TV next room we're really gonna have even slower internet connection. Because the child nodes are getting.
05:00
Speaker 1
Right. Okay. but do I have to unplug it in from the main computer to do that wise oh okay okay okay I can do it on iPhone just didn't know what you wanted um
06:00
Speaker 2
splitting their signal from this main one. So let's check first with the wireless speed available in this main node. Run a speedtest using the same link speedtest.net and you don't have to if you'll run the speedtest using your phone but if you'll use your desktop then yeah you have really have to unplug it but it's much better if it's iPhone. Yeah. Open Safari.
