Yeah, how do I know I'm connected to- that I'm using the 5 and not the 2.4? Uh, no, I don't think so. Uh, uh, my, my first name, Bill McLean, M-C-L-E-A-N.

Speaker 2
5 gigahertz network well well if you view the available networks did you separate by the way when you set up this router did you separate the networks uh the 2.4 and the five gigahertz Now. yeah so you need to separate the networks first so you would be able to identify which is the 2.4 and which one is the five because maybe they have different uh they have the same name so you won't be able to recognize if you're connected to the 2.4. So sir let me just create a record by the way can I have your name and uh first and last name as well as your email Okay and uh sir Bill your email address please [ silence ] you

Speaker 1
Yeah spectrum [silence] care uh hum.
03:00
Speaker 2
And who is your Internet provider? Spectrum, okay. Yes, so in your case, there, there's a need for you to uh separate the names. So I would suggest you better do that in order for you to uh to check if you're connected to the 2.4 or 5 gigahertz because if you really want to achieve um the ideal speed for your from your Internet provider, um you need to connect to the 5 gigahertz. And sir, upon checking here in our system, your uh router, the linksys router WRT1900ACS is already out of warranty, okay? It's even one of our

[silence] Andrew at the end of life devices, okay? It's for heave yeah, end of support, end of support devices. Um, and the, uh, technical support for this device also ended March 2026. So March of this year. So we won't be able to walk you through the process. But, um, we can give you, okay, we can give you some articles. Okay, we have this website support.links1s.com. You can find articles on how to access this links router, and change the Wi-Fi name as well as yeah, the Wi-Fi name and separate the the names from there. Okay? Uh, not the app sir, because the app will only uh, give you one option there. It will only show up one name, not the the 2.4 and the 5 gigahertz. So you'll really need to use a computer.
04:00
Speaker 1
I actually see... I actually see the 2... I see the 2.4, which I'm connected to, and I see the 5... which I'm not connected to. And they both have the same... I see them both. They both have the same name... Oh, wait. No. got it. well you know it's funny, on the app it did show both 2.4 and 5, and now it's just showing 5. So um uh, okay. All right, well, I... I... I still got this set up... [silence]

Speaker 2
I use the s.a.browser for that. You also. OK, so you see both networks? OK, well, then if you see both network, well, if that is the case, or then, yeah, try to connect to the 5 gigahertz and try to run the. try to track what's the speed that you're getting from 5 gigahertz network.
