04:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay, now it's blinking blue. Uh, no, it's just solid pink.
05:00
Speaker 2
all right so the next step you need to do ma'am is kindly press the reset button on the main node. The one that is connected to your modem. Five times, like press release, press release for five times. Not too fast and not too slow. All right. They're going to. Go. Don't do that. Okay. The keep pushing. Um, once you see the solid blue. All right, so now it's blinking blue. How about the new node that you want to add? Is it blinking? before the off-white is in solid blue. Let go of the reset button. Same. Okay, let's give it a minute.
05:00
Speaker 1
Yep, yeah. Yeah, it's still fast. Reset, right. The reset or the error, right. The WPS will release it. Okay. All right, now it is white. Like, uh, um, white, I guess it's blinking white or light pink or something. Uh, still solid pink.[silence.[
07:00
Speaker 2
Right. The silicone, ma'am, is it to say solid pink, the one that you want to connect to use? All right, it's solid pink. Right, can you please press again, ma'am, the reset button five times on the main node. Like press, release, press, release. One last time for five times. Very quickly. All right. All right. I see you got it, and how about the child node?
07:00
Speaker 1
And now the Now oh wait those trails just started blinking pink. Okay, now it's Now it's blinking red. Should I still just wait? Okay.
08:00
Speaker 2
All right. all right, the main node. okay. I see. all right. so let's wait for about three to five minutes, ma'am. until this child node is then communicating with the main node. and the light indicator of this new child node should change to solid blue. and if it's solid blue, it means that it was successfully connected or I mean it is successfully connected. yes, we need to wait for three to five minutes. I'll set a timer here. Hello ma'am, can you tell me now, what's the light status? Is it still blinking red? All right, let's wait for a minute just to confirm. it will stay solid blue. If it will stay solid blue after a minute, then you may relocate this child node because it means that it's already connected to your main node. Ah can I. all right so is this the sidetablemen all right so we
08:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Uh, no. I'll do it. Oh, that was good. All right. Thanks. Yeah. Bye.
13:00
Speaker 2
[silence] Yes, since it's still solid blue, it means it's already connected and you may relocate this child node them whichever area you want to relocate it and you're good to go. Is there anything else that this this use other than this? Okay. So once you plug it into the other location man, just wait for about three to four minutes until that device is done starting up, then the light will change to solid blue. All right? All right. Thank you so much and have a good one.
