I just wanna set your expectations. The Linksys device that you have right now is actually already part of our end of life devices, which means we no longer manufacture this one and uh update its firmware. Also, um this device
06:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Uh, it's looking for um, well, when I type in my router.local, so it'll bring up the page, so to link to for the admin page. Uh, it doesn't come up. And I did this less than a week ago. I was able to go in and make some changes to it. So, I don't know what happened from then to now.
07:00
Speaker 2
is actually one of our legacy router. Like it's quite, you know an old model. But anyway when you try to pull up the record I mean, the web user interface what was the error you had encountered? mmhmHMM. [silence] Mhm. Hmm.
07:00
Speaker 1
And it says. No, let me. Yeah, I I tried um, Edge and I tried Chrome. and they both come up with the same thing and I deleted the browsing history. I've deleted the cache. I've rebooted both the router and the modem and it just can't get to it. and when I look at the when I do an IP config all, the so the DNS server is showing like the router or the gateway the same. So 192.168.1.1. but when I try it, it says No.
08:00
Speaker 2
So when you when you tap in my router.local it is just showing you a blue screen? Somehow or? Have you tried using a different browser?
08:00
Speaker 1
Your internet access is blocked, but it's not because I can get to other pages. no problem. Yeah. Yeah, what you said. Oh, I don't know the lingo, so, okay. [silence] Okay.
09:00
Speaker 2
So, your in edge is working fine. It's just that you're unable to access the web user interface. All right. Yeah, okay. So, can we try? Uh, like, uh, going to the myrouter.local once again? Um, Miss Valerie, but this time, can you try putting, like, H T T P S colon double forward slash?
09:00
Speaker 1
So it's my router.local correct? Okay. Thank you. And then I get a cute little cloud with the little dots in it. It says, hmm, can't reach this page. My router.local server IP address could not be found.
10:00
Speaker 2
Yes, ma'am. So, it's http, or sorry, https colon, www, my router, dot local. Mmhmm.
10:00
Speaker 1
the connection check the check the proxy firewall and DNS settings, if there, then not resolved and refresh. Oh, I bought this about two, uh, excuse me. Let's see Okay I could try on another computer and see what what happens Okay you know I bought this router like two years ago or less than two years
11:00
Speaker 2
Mm. I totally understand ma'am. Well, technically, this is an old model, um and the warranty is just a year. But anyway, that that doesn't mean it shouldn't be um behaving I mean, giving you this kind of behavior. But actually, we do have a lot of report regarding um the web user interface. Because, you know, Linksys has been updating the the page. That's why um some of the access was compromised or even the the browsers or the the links that you've been using to access it is having an issue. Um, I'm trying to locate something here on my end because I think there was an alternative link for you to access the
14:00
Speaker 1
That's o.k. because that keeps IT jobs up, right? Right?
15:00
Speaker 2
web bu i uh... but um it it's also because of like you know um we've been removing some access like old app from the you know old models um
15:00
Speaker 1
Let me try entering the interface. I think yeah, I think I entered the wrong. I hit a wrong. I'm in. Okay, thank you. So Firefox browser worked. Okay, great. Thank you very much. You too.
