Speaker 1

00:00
Speaker 1
Um, and it is not, it just doesn't, it doesn't read. So I, I try to put in, I changed the the the Wi-Fi passw and the Wi-Fi name. Um, and I put in the password that I thought the, the admin password would be, um, and it's not working. So I try to reset the password and it asks me for a five digit code and it says underneath the router, but I don't see a five digit code underneath the router. Um, and I want to see if I can grab some help with, with with that. Uh, the model number? Yeah, the serial number is 32X20M27A00731.
01:00
Speaker 2
uh... uh... Oem what's the models or the one but your Roads or router? Or can I have the serial number? Uh uh uh... 164744 uh... 1690 thank you so much. Let me just pull this one up here [silence]
01:00
Speaker 1
[DOWNWEIGHT] Yes. I don't believe so. I changed so long ago. I think I changed it on the website when it was still available. Um I probably changed it two or three years ago. Um and I changed the winewy name and wines and has said. Um but I'm trying to access like the admin controls, but it says that I changed the admin controls and I haven't hit on there with [silence]
02:00
Speaker 2
certainly. So this one sir is the EA7200. Okay, how did you change the wifi name and password. Did you use the liksis app? Okay.
02:00
Speaker 1
What is the the is basically the same password as my the admin control should be the same password as the Wi-Fi password but it's not allowing me to log in. So I hit reset password and it's asking me for a five-digit code a recovery code but it's and it says it's on the bottom of the the the router but it's there's no I don't see a five-digit code anywhere on there. huh.
03:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, usually you save for this one, for the EA7500, it doesn't have, since this is actually part of our first generation routers, so it doesn't have any um five-digit recovery key that you can supposedly use to reset your um admin password so you can log in to the Linksys app. So we actually uh made some updates on the Linksys app as well, because we're actually using Evolve system already that is actually in Mesh. [silence] So more likely said this one this one is no longer compatible with the Lynx his app because the links he app we also discontinued using the link the Lynx account or the cloud server. So you can only access your router locally where you can change um settings of your links his router. So you need to go to the IP address, which is 192.168.1.1 or to the my router dot local. And then um you can try the default router password, which is admin all lowercase A. D. M. I. N. If that doesn't accept sir with the router, then our um our last option for this one is to really do have a full factory reset and then set it up again. So you can customize your um WiFi name, WiFi password, and then
03:00
Speaker 1
okay. okay. yeah, i tried to access it um through my i p address, uh but it says, it says i have to install the app and that's why i installed it in the in the first place. it says lynxedoes not support my browser, but i'm on i'm on chrome, um and i also tried it on safari and that didn't work either. yeah. I I'm using a I use my phone.
05:00
Speaker 2
Sure, did you use your phone or did you use a computer? Ah. OK. So, um, you have to set your your, um if you're using your phone, and then you're trying to and then you're going with the IP address. So, um yes, it actually will pop up a or prompt you up a message that your browser doesn't support it. You need to set up your browser if you're using phone, um as a desktop mode.
05:00
Speaker 2
So the IP address will be able to read it as like a computer browser. So you'll be able to access the IP. More usually for this one, yes, we really do recommend setting it up using the laptop because you have to access the web interface. And then if it prompts user where it asks you to download the Linkeasy app, you'll be able to see a picture of a phone. You just need to double tap the phone picture so it will route you to the admin page. Once you access the 192.168.1.1 sir on your laptop.
06:00
Speaker 1
I'd say my router password is wrong. Spectrum. Yeah.
07:00
Speaker 2
And, uh, by the way, sir, who is your internet service provider? Spectrum, okay.
07:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, this is my passwords long if I if I connected like if I connected through ethernet, my laptop to my router, would that bypass you know, the password or would that allow me to change anything? directly? yeah, bypass the the the router password. Oh, I see. Oh, man. So, it'll be easier if I just uh,
08:00
Speaker 2
Uh, you mean, sir, you mean bypass the Wi-Fi password to connect? Oh, um, for that one, sir, um, for the, for the router password, you can actually only bypass. To connect it to the wire directly, but it will still ask you for the router password.
08:00
Speaker 1
I can I'm I'm on the 192.168.1.1 and it's it's it's asking me for the router password again and it has the hint of the password um and I'm putting in the putting in the password and it says it's incorrect kuchoya. And is there a pain on the letter? I press
09:00
Speaker 2
uh. I see. Well, our last option on that one, sir, is to have a full factory reset on this one. So everything that is configured on that linksys router will be removed or deleted, especially the Wi-Fi name and password that you associated. And then it will revert back to its default Wi-Fi name and password. But if you are connected directly, at least it will be easier for you to set it up and then go through with the setup process after you reset the router. Um, yeah, there's actually like a reset button at the back of your linksys router. [silence]
09:00
Speaker 1
Oh. Oh. Yeah. Sure. Okay. Yeah, that'd be great. Yeah, it's K T B D O K E 2000@hotmail.com.
10:00
Speaker 2
,[silence] and you just need to press and hold that one, sir. So, for this one, sir, the device is actually showing as out of warranty. And then usually for out of warranty devices, we no longer provide further technical assistance over the phone unless we avail our paid connect service, which is $15 for 60 minutes of troubleshooting. But I know that you actually know your way of connecting or like doing factory reset. If you want, I can send you an email step-by-step on how you can do the proper reset and then how you can set it up as well. I can send it to your email for free. All right, and can I have your email address. Sorry, sir.
