09:00
Speaker 2
The signal is weak. So I, it's why I use a, uh, so that's why I use Wi-Fi calling, one reason. And then secondly, uh, we have a, a cell tower extender. So then that makes the, makes the signal, that makes the signal good enough. But, yeah, so I don't have the opportunity to talk without Wi-Fi calling. Yeah. Yes, that's correct. So I was, I was using a Linksys, and uh, we had an electrical storm and it caused, uh, it caused it to fail. So my grandson hooked up the, uh, Eero, cause it's for his, from his, my grandson has that, so he hooked up the Eero, but that's not mine. Uh, [laughter] I still have to hook up the Wi-Fi. Oh, it's nice and then I usually just out and get a new Wi-Fi. okay I'll take the arrow out of the modem.
