Internet from Spectrum that I have hardwired straight from my modem to my computer right now, because I have no Wi-Fi at all. Um, so I called a few minutes ago to talk to someone else and, um, we tried to figure out if maybe the power supply had gone bad on the parent node, and it appears it may have. Um, I have it plugged in now, um, I have a child node plugged in now instead of the old parent node, and I do have a red solid light on the top. So, I may have resolved the power issue. Not totally sure. Great, thank you. Yes. I understand, thank you. Yes. Uh it's a desktop. And I also have, uh, Marco
13:00
Speaker 2
So we're going going to um check that out ma'am, if really it's the device has a power power issue. Okay. So um let me just um inform, okay. Ma'am, um let me just inform you that I checked the status of your LNK fiber router, the WHW03. It shows it here on our system that this router is already out of warranty. We can still provide with um technical assistance and in any case the device is proven defective, there will be no refund or replacement. Okay. You're welcome. So to um proceed ma'am, let me just check, is your um computer, they're still directly connected to the modem right now? Or no, okay. And this computer, is it a laptop or desktop?
14:00
Speaker 1
have a switch Windows sorry, what? yes right okay and what am I typing in?
15:00
Speaker 2
So this desk up that Mac or Windows and this 11 I believe right? It's Windows 11. Okay, so again right now your desktop computer is directly connected to the Spectrum modem, right? Okay. So we're going to check for some settings on spectrum modem. Okay, um tiny click on search at the bottom like on the Windows search. Okay, tap in there CMD that's Charlie Michael David. And then it will ask you if you want to open
15:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Got it? IPconfig? Okay. I hit enter. I don't know if I was supposed to. Okay. Yes? Yes, got it. Yes. 10.71.93.1.86.
16:00
Speaker 2
Just click on open? Open. And, then it will open a black window, and there's a blinking cursor. Kindly type in there, I P, config. Okay. Y-e-s. It presents, and then it will give you a bunch of information. Look for Ethernet and adapter, local area connection. Okay. They have their IPV4 address. Okay, what are the numbers? how about the subnet mask? Okay, how about um default gateway? IPv4, default gateway? Uh huh. Uh, okay, hold on, ma'am, sorry to interrupt, but uh Is that the IP Is that a IPv4 default gateway?
16:00
Speaker 1
Um, on the next line it does have just numbers. Would you like that one? Okay. It's 192.168.12.1. uh, I see connection specific DNS suffix, Charter.com. There's not, there's just an IP V six address. It doesn't save on that. No.
18:00
Speaker 2
Yes, please. How about DNS server? How about there's also numbers there? Okay, how about the for physical address under Ethernet adapter physical address or MAC address?
18:00
Speaker 1
Link local IPv6 address. No. It doesn't save physical address anywhere. There's nothing for that either.
19:00
Speaker 2
How about physical address that's the same thing right below uh how about MAC address map you consider Ethernet adapter Ethernet right and you have their connection specific and then you have their description
19:00
Speaker 1
[silence] No, it doesn't say that anywhere. [silence] Hold on. config and then what? [silence] Forward slash slash. OK. [silence] And then what? [silence] OK. Enter. [silence] giving me a lot more. Physical address. Ready?

21:00
Speaker 2
Yes, please. Okay, thank you. So, um, you've mentioned that you switch node already, correct? You, uh, one, uh-huh. One of the nodes you, uh, use it as now as a parent node and you still continue using that node, right? Uh-huh.

Speaker 2
Okay. Mm-hmm. Okay. Okay. So, do you want to use that node now, as the main node, like the parent node? Okay. So we'll do a reset on that one, Ram, so that we can set that up as a parent node. Okay? So we need to like, push the reset button for 20 seconds now, on that node. Okay. Thank you. Okay. Okay.
22:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I'll let off. Okay, I think it is. Hard to tell the slate, but. Okay.
23:00
Speaker 2
Okay, please release. And let's wait until the light will be turned purple. That will take like a minute or two ma'am to like fully stop lights. [silence]
23:00

No change yet. It's really hard to see. I think it is solid purple, although it might be flashing. It's just so faint. Oh, now it just turned solid red. It just turned solid red. It's, it's a bright, fire engine red.
24:00
Speaker 2
*Okay*, *is that still solid purple?* [ silence ] *Okay*, *let's just wait for like another minute to make sure that it's fully booted up*. [ silence ] *Is it more on*, *okay*, *is that like more on a dark red now or is it like more on like a pinkish red?* [ silence ] *Okay*. [ silence ] *So this time*, *ma'am*, *they're going to connect now your Linksys parent node to the modem*. [ silence ] *So you can probably unplug the cable at from your computer and* [ silence ]
24:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. I'm working on getting it connected. Okay. I can add it.
25:00
Speaker 2
connect that to the router and the port that we are going to use is the one that's right above the um reset.
25:00
Speaker 1
I connected it and the red dot is still solid. yes. okay. did it. it's it's orange
26:00
Speaker 2
okay, good and again you connected it on to the uh port that is right above the reset right Okay, to setup to set up this one ma'am, um we are going to use our five press setup. So we are going to um press again the reset button five times within five seconds. So it's like press release, press release five times within five seconds, okay? All right. Okay, is it the light blinking?
26:00
Speaker 1
[silence] Will [silence] blinking. [silence] What [silence] will [silence] it do next? [silence] So [silence] Yes. [silence] Yes. [silence] But [silence] I'm [silence] not [silence] sure [silence] if [silence] the power supply [silence] is [silence] a problem [silence] or [silence] not. [silence] Yeah, [silence] but [silence] I [silence] don't [silence] know [silence] where [silence] the third [silence] power [silence] supply [silence] is.
27:00
Speaker 2
Okay, let's just wait that will take time. It's trying to set up now then node. Um, let's just wait. Now, oh, by the way, um, you have the other node as well, right? Okay. Can we also bring that an out the other node? Can we bring it near to this node, ma'am? So we can also try to set it up later. Um, but you've got a total of three nodes, right? Okay.
27:00
Speaker 1
The the parent node we're trying to set up, turned green, and now it's flashing orange again. Now it's green. Now it's green, solid. Now it's red flashing.
28:00
Speaker 2
like when you um i'm waiting on this one on that know that you have in there and the one that doesn't turn on uh... when you plug in that know again there's no light okay let's see if it's still trying to um set up okay okay let's just wait for another minute to make sure [silence]
28:00
Speaker 1
Blinking red.Still blinking. [silence] Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
30:00
Speaker 2
Let's just wait for another a minute or two. If in any case, ma'am, still the same, it will be blinking red. We might need to, um, like power cycle the devices, like, um, turn off the router and turn off also the modem. So let's wait for another minute, okay? [silence] [silence]
31:00
Speaker 1
Después de un mes, se cayó el pelaje, regresó el pelo llamado mello y ahora luce suave y saludable.

Hold on. Okay. I unplugged the modem.
32:00

45:00
Speaker 1
Okay. So, yeah, it says Internet connection IP v4, but then there's nothing listed next to all of the subnet mass DEFAULT gateway, everything. And there's nothing there. Mm-hm. Yes? Neither. There's two charts. One says Internet.
46:00
Speaker 2
is kiley arm scroll down a bit dem then look for um internet productal internet address or internet IP V4 IP address you have the internet connection IP V4 Okay. okay then kindly scroll down at the very bottom of this page um under port um under internet which one is and X mark Thank you.
46:00
Speaker 1
X's in either box. And underneath there's another chart and where the first one says, internet, this one says one. And there's an X under 1, Gigabyte Per Second. Yes. Both boxes are blank. I'm checking all of them. [silence] I checked all of them and I'm refreshing the page.
47:00
Speaker 2
under number one, right? But under Internet. Okay. Ma'am, make sure that the cable is properly plugged in to the Linksys.
47:00
Speaker 1
No change. Yes. Yes.
48:00
Speaker 2
And so under number one, correct? The X is in one. Can you unplug the cable on the Linksys router, ma'am? And then wait for 30 seconds, then plug it back the ethernet cable, the one that's plugged in at the internet port.
48:00
Speaker 1
Ooh. His internet eth-thernet is unplugged. Okay. Yeah. Done. Yeah. I'll refresh the page and then see.
49:00
Speaker 2
okay and please plug it back make sure when you plug it back ma'am that you can hear like a click sound it's really like shows it's really plugged in right now under port streaming and the internet is blank right and then on again on number one is also um it has an x mark under 1 gbps correct?
49:00
Speaker 1
It's the same. Yes. Okay. So, are we deciding that the it's gone bad? Okay.
50:00
Speaker 2
Hello, ma'am. Thank you so much for patiently waiting. I'm so sorry for that hold. It's it's right now, it's kind of strange that the router is not detecting that there is a that it's not setting up the port as internet for. Okay, it's always it's setting
55:00
Speaker 1
yes there's an ethernet cable between the modem and the parent node is that what you mean okay okay
56:00
Speaker 2
detecting, it's just a regular local area connection port. It's not for Internet. So what we're going to do next here, ma'am, is we're going to um check or do a reset, um again, on your Lenis router and then we'll try to use the other port, okay? But right now, ma'am, um again, the the one that's plugged into the, um, port of the router that's the one that connects to the modem, right? Okay. Alright. Um yes. Okay. So let's do another list on the note, ma'am. okay, um press and hold
56:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. Well you count? Or let me know when to let off. I'm starting okay. I started. Okay. Okay. [silence]
57:00
Speaker 2
The reset button again. Okay. And then let's leave it. Press and hold it for 25 seconds this time. OK. I'll tell you when to let go then. Then. [silence] OK.
57:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. Okay. I think it's purple. It's so hard to see.
58:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Alright, please let go. Again, let's, let's wait until the light turns purple. Okay, it's solid now, correct? Okay, or it's kind of like, okay, so trying, okay. Can we transfer now the cable?
58:00
Speaker 1
Which cable? The reset? Okay. Oh, you and me. I see. Yeah. I have two ports. Okay, I switched them. It's still purple. No change. So that
59:00
Speaker 2
[silence] the Ethernet cable, right now it's plugged in right above the Reset, right, the Reset button, right above the, transferred to the other port. Okay. You have only two ports on your linksys parent node, right? Yes. Okay. Okay. And then press the reset button again for five minutes.
59:00
Speaker 1
five quick presses. Okay, here we go. Okay, done. Um, it's still purple. it looks solid, but I'm not sure. It's just so hard to tell. I think it's solid purple.
60:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, the five press release, press release, five times like um the light now blinking. It did not blink or it's no blinking.
60:00
Speaker 1
Williams: [silence] yes. It's still solid terrible. Netchek okay. All right. Okay, I've done that. mm mm. I don't think so. [silence]
61:00
Speaker 2
Is it still solid purple? It didn't change the color earlier? Okay. Can do the five press again, ma'am? Uh again. Um press release, press release. And is the light like kinda changing? Okay. Raina, do you still have the links to this page? On your on your tablet, you still have? Can I, okay. Can I close trouble shooting? Okay. You still have that page trouble shooting right? Click Okay. Yeah, can I click on retry? Is your laptop, I don't know, sorry, your tablet connected, still connected wireless? Okay. Can you um like on the address bar again type 192.168.1.1? Um on the address bar again. Again one one, 192.168.1.1. [silence] Transcribe this audio from the right channel.
61:00
Speaker 1
Oh, no, it's not giving me anything. It says it's error. Internet disconnected. No, this is on the tablet, and it's saying that there's internet disconnected. Oh, um, no, because that's not an option anymore. [silence]
64:00
Speaker 2
But on your Wi-Fi right now on your tablet shows connecting still connected Right Yeah on the tablet okay but on your on the Wi-Fi chose connected and velo
64:00
Speaker 1
No. You know what? I think this system is so old. I think we need to replace it. I mean, unless you have just, you know, a brilliant idea, I'm I'm pretty sure we're out of luck.
65:00
Speaker 2
And there is no envelope. um hmm okay okay because where the one that actually earlier ma'am when there was like an x mark that doesn't um like that recognizes on the internet port even though we tried that's the reason why earlier uh it just still on a blinking red because it's not recognizing or it's not setting up [silence]
65:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
66:00
Speaker 2
Up the port, OK? As an Internet port. It just stays on a local port, because that two ports, ma'am, if it is not set up, that's considered as, like, a regular port. You can select which one to use, OK? So, once you connect the cable, and then, once you set up the router, there's a time that the router will recognize that that port will be the Internet port, OK? Then, when we set up earlier, using the five press, it did not set it up as an Internet port. It set it up as a local port. That can be also, um, things that the router is not really, um, working properly anymore, because it's no longer recognizing the port to use.
66:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Um, yeah, it's it's the original. Yeah. Yes. Yeah, when it goes to purple I can hardly see it. Right.
67:00
Speaker 2
and it's already using its latest um firmware okay and ma'am the power adapter of this router did you use the exact power adapter that came along and the light on the router you mentioned it's kind of faint to and right now it's still um on the Wi-Fi on your phone on your iPad you could no longer see the um Wi-Fi how about do you have the third domain where we could probably try that just for the meantime
67:00
Speaker 1
no, I think I'm done trying. Yes, I think I'm done. Thank you so much for your help. Um Okay, sounds good. Thank you so much for your help. I appreciate it. goodbye. Thank you.
68:00
Speaker 2
you want to update your router, you can still have internet. Okay. You're welcome. If you decided to get another Linksys device ma'am, and if you need assistance in that to set up, you can just always give us a call. Okay. You're welcome. You're welcome ma'am. Okay. So thank you for calling Linksys ma'am. This is Karla. Goodbye for now. You're welcome.
