[silence]
01:00
Speaker 1
Yes. Okay. Yes. Yeah, I understand that sir. But, sir, let me just set your expectation, okay, that these links, this Linksys Smart Wi-Fi remote access website has been discontinued. Okay. Um, that is with the connection of your, if you're going to change your email account, your lingcessmartwifi account email, uh, we may not be able to get any emails. Cause, uh,
02:00
Speaker 2
I can access my account, but that's fun. And it says I've got four nodes, 23 devices. But the problem is I got to change my email. And I don't want to, I just want to change my email, because I don't have access to AOL anymore, because I deleted that account. That's what's going on.
02:00
Speaker 1
that that is related to the Linxsi smartphone, wifi website. So, as per management, um, the website has been discontinued. Though the website is discontinued for your router and internet connection will still continue to work normally. And you can still manage your router local settings by accessing Myrouter.local. Okay? If you really want to use the Linksys app, uh, you have an option on the Linksys app to access the, uh, there's a local access option as well. So, that's the changes they've made, uh, that's the update actually with regard to the Linksys smart wifi. So, I can show you another way to access your router. Okay.
03:00
Speaker 2
Okay, um, silence silence Okay, um,
03:00
Speaker 1
So, instead of using the app, you can use it you can access the router by using the web interface. Just go to http://my router.com. Yes, it's still working. but if you change, if you'll change your email you we may not be able to do that anymore. Anymore. Yes, can you hear me? [silence]
04:00
Speaker 1
he change your account sir we may not be able to do that anymore.
05:00
Speaker 2
Yep. so if I know as it is, are you ever going to have to email me? Yes. you will have to email me? so I should just leave everything alone. cuz it's working. Okay, so I should just leave it alone and even though even Okay and so that email address is really irrelevant anyway. It's just kind of a username basically. [silence]
05:00
Speaker 1
Yes, as long as you're still logged in, as long as you don't sign out from your account, you should still be able to view it. [silence] creating, you created an account, like, uh, where did you create an account, is it, um, to register, to register your, uh, product, oh, that, that doesn't have to do with the link to smart waizer, there, that's a different thing, it's for the registration of your product, yeah. [silence] Yes, that is correct. [silence] Okay.
06:00
Speaker 2
Does that have anything to do with my router? It doesn't. Yeah. I went to linksys.com. Yeah. Well, okay. Okay, so I don't need to worry about that. That's just if I want to replace it or buy something. Okay, as long as, as long as this app is working and my account is working, then uh we're, we're good to go. Um, all right. Well, you have been very helpful and I will ignore the fact that it's AOL. I'll consider that a username. I got rid of AOL after 20 years. And so I, I didn't realize it didn't realize that this would.
08:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, you can always do that. You can go to change the Wi-Fi password. You just need to go to Wi-Fi settings to do that. OK. Speaker 1: Okay. No worries, sir. I appreciate your patience as well, so thank you for choosing Linksys. This is Abby. You too have a great night, Mr. Jon. And you have a great weekend as well. No worries, sir. Bye-bye.
09:00
