Speaker 1
I've had it for a few years now. I've been using it and my my my internet service changed. So I'm trying to get connect it to my. It's the same provide Verizon but I'm instead of using fiber optics now. I'm on. I'm on 5g home Internet. No, it's not. Let me, I think it was reset. One second. It is blue.
09:00
Speaker 2
been using this for a while. Okay. And with your internet provider now? Virgin. Again. Got it. Okay and it's having a purple light right now. Correct? What's the color though. On top.
09:00
Speaker 1
at the moment, but it was just blinking, I think. Yeah, it's it's blue at the moment on the Perry node. It's blink blue. Yeah, on the parent node. It's bling blue. It's it's it's stopped blinking. It's light blue now. Uh it's blink. So it's blinking from dark. Yeah, it's it's blinking from dark blue to light blue. I don't know if it's reading or something.
10:00
Speaker 2
uh huh blinking blue only on the main node I mean that. that. that. says that you have. uh huh. just make sure it's plugged in. uh huh.
10:00
Speaker 1
yeah it is [ silence ] on the back of the the link sys the ethernet wire is plugged into the internet port should I do that [ silence ] there are four ports there's ethernet one ethernet two ethernet three and then there's an internet next to that and three and internet [ silence ] both they have a yellow line under them
11:00
Speaker 2
okay. yeah. if it's blinking, that means sometimes it has something to do with the physical connection. make sure that from your new modem, the ethernet cable on the Lens. they still plug in on the one port, the internet port, not the ethernet. that's gonna be we have um what do you okay. [silence]
11:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so the, sorry, the, um, the, the other two nodes, those are purple, but the parent node is light blue right now. It's not blinking anymore. Do I have internet? Yeah. Is it working? Okay. And then what do I do next? Cause the, the two other nodes, those are still purple. [silence]
12:00
Speaker 2
YouTube anchor typo.[silence] Yeah, so you don't actually have internet right now check.[silence] if you have internet trust to yeah because your main is solid blue.[silence] Yeah, that means earlier it was just rebooting.[silence] but right now it was able to detect already the internet from the modem.[silence] Yeah, just place it right beside this one within five feet, they're both disconnected and it's currently on setup mode.
12:00
Speaker 2
Okay, press the reset button there five times, press release, press release, press release, five times. Main one only.
13:00
Speaker 1
[ silence ] Hello. [ silence ] Uh, no, they're still just solid purple. Yes, MX 4300.
14:00
Speaker 2
Yes, so the main node, once you did the five press, it will blink. Once it will go back to solid blue, the child notes nearby should flash. Is it already flashing? Okay, just to make sure, can you read the description and the sticker underneath? Check if the model number is MX4300. MX4300. One second. Okay. Um, yeah, I just asked my senior technician.
14:00
Speaker 1
okay MX 4200 and MX 4200 they're both MX 4200 oh
16:00
Speaker 2
Okay. MX 4300. Those are mesh routers, actually, the MX 4200 child nodes that you have. This MX 4300, uh, which is your current main node, this is just really a stand-alone router, which is not designed to be compatible with this MX 4200. That's why I'm wondering why, uh, it works.
16:00
Speaker 1
okay yeah they look the same that's why i thought they were together okay
17:00
Speaker 2
more in when in fact this MX4300 is totally different from the MX4200. So, it will not Actually, if you'll ask me which one is the updated between the two, it's gonna be the MX4200. That's gonna be the updated and much better router when it comes to its wireless standard. This MX4300, it can be used as a router only, but there's no compatible mesh router to it. You can add a regular extender, but then again, when it comes to performance, the mesh is much better. So, if you want to have an extender, you can remove this MX4300 and set up one of your MX4200
17:00
Speaker 1
uh and uh okay so uh basically um sorry okay that means I'm I'll be working with two nodes then. right okay okay so if I need to extend my internet I can use the two mx4200s. okay all right uh I think oh they're both purple right now
18:00
Speaker 2
We can then add your additional MX4200. So two only. That's if. go ahead. yeah, it's like you have two routers there, because this MX 4300 is also our router, but it's not a mesh. This MX 4200 can be a router and an extender. right now. I see. yeah, that will be a better option to have the MX 4200, set up as a parent and the other one as an extender. Do you need assistance with that or you can do it?
18:00
Speaker 1
[silence] Do I need to use the app? You say that you can't use the app anymore, right? [silence] [silence] I see. And that's all? OK. [silence]
19:00
Speaker 2
Right. No, you can't. It's like this, all you need to do is to completely remove the of the MX 4300 including its power adapter. And then plug one of your 4200 directly to your modem. And then after that, once it turns to back to purple, you can do the five press reset. Actually that's the easiest way to configure the nodes. Press release, press release, press release, press release. By doing that, within three minutes, your linksys will turn to solid purple including the extender nearby, which is also purple. And your Wi-Fi name will be the one that is on the sticker underneath the current parent node. That will be your Wi-Fi name for both MX 4200. That's all. Yeah. We're open up until 11:00:00 pm. So, just in case you
19:00
Speaker 1
Okay, that's some good. Thank you so much. All right. Bye.
