Yes, Ben, what I'm trying to do is I guess I haven't been into my I I'm trying to check some stuff in my router. It's been a while. And I can't seem to get into it. It comes up access V-E-L-L. I've tried all the passwords I possibly had and I can't get in. Can you help me? Yes. I'm trying to get into it on my laptop computer, which is where I was able to do before and I can't seem to get in there now.
03:00
Speaker 2
Hi, thank you for calling Linksys. My name is Brent. I'm going to help you today. To confirm, you want to access your Linksys router. I see. To confirm, am I speaking with Miss Diana? Match
03:00
Speaker 1
Yes you are. Correct. Yes it is. I went on to the 192.168.1.1. I couldn't get through there. Uh, I I don't know and then I went into something that comes up with a login with your router password and then it comes in with um, access V-E-L-O-P router password and I I put in different words I've had in there and it just isn't coming up. What am I doing wrong?
04:00
Speaker 2
Four one nine two six two nine, seven zero five. Perfect. Thank you so much. Uh just to confirm, is the model number of your router, is it an MR 9600? All right. Thank you. You mentioned you tried to search or tried to access your link this router. What was the website that you tried to search? and to confirm your laptop is it wired or wirelessly connected to the Wi-Fi or the internet with a wire? Alright thank you so much. And is it connected to your Linksys? Alright can you try opening a new tab? On a new tab try searching my router period local all in one word hit.
04:00
Speaker 1
Okay, it came in sign in, log in with your router password and then it has a square box and it says access, B-E-L-O PLP, router, password. Okay. Yes, 7 4 0 1 6. Okay. Oh, I have to create, why do I have to create a new one?
06:00
Speaker 2
Is there an option that says Reset password? Can you click on that one? Once you click on that one, is it asking for a five-digit recovery key? Look underneath your Mr. 9600. There should be a five-digit recovery key there. You need to use that key to type it into the laptop. All right. Now, after you've entered the recovery key, it should be asking you to create a new router password instead. This router password
07:00
Speaker 1
Even okay, right now my, I guess I'm kind of confused because when this was set up, um, it was set up what maybe using my iPad. Does that make a difference if I'm using the iPad or the computer? Shouldn't it be the same? If I'm logging into
08:00
Speaker 2
Take note, this is not your Wi-Fi password. This router password is just for you to log in to your LinkSys account or to the LinkSys router's settings. So without this password, you cannot enter the router's settings. So in-- so in terms of our suggestions, please write it down on a paper, so the next time you might need to re-enter the router settings page, you need to use this password. [silence] In terms of the password, for-- yes. In terms of logging in, they should be the same. For example,

Speaker 1
You know what? I'm going to do something here. If you don't mind while I have you on the line, I'm going to check my iPad password and see if it gets me in there, because it's something weird that I can't get in on my computer. That's very weird. And I can access this with the Linksys app on my iPad because we've been having some difficulties with our security system. And those guys were just out and I wanted to check my whole system of what was on there. And this is where I'm finding out. I've been unable to get on.
09:00
Speaker 2
If you try using the Linksys app, which is where this unit is compatible. and you created an admin password there or a router password, it should also work on this web interface. But if you can no longer remember the router password, this is the time we need to reset and create a new one instead. You can also recycle passwords if you need to. Go ahead.
09:00
Speaker 1
So let me try this on my iPad and see if I get on. I appreciate your patience here.
10:00
Speaker 2
Go ahead. no worries there. as long as we can help. [silence]
10:00
Speaker 1
[silence] Wow. This is ridiculous. I wonder can they can they change the password on me if they were doing stuff with it? I'm I'm I'm I'm very confused. [silence] Wow. I'm going to try one. I'm locked out all over. Gee. I'm trying the various ones that I've had go on there and they're just, oh my. I, I never thought I'd have this kind of experience. I'm going to try one more thing here. [silence] I am just very confused. Now this is kind of weird because I have your Linksys app on my iPhone, okay? And I was able to get into look at what's on there, but when I try to log in to the, let me try one more time. Hold on again here. I can, I can log on to get the link this stuff here. It's got a question mark.
11:00
Speaker 2
Alright. When you mention about IRM, you mean all devices that's connected right now? On your app, there's a device list. In the device list, it shows all devices connected whether it's currently online or offline. So, you can check all devices there.
14:00
Speaker 1
I can print those off. Okay, okay. That makes sense. And if I have, say I have a, say it's a iPhone and there's a two behind it, does that mean that there's two phones listed for that individual? Now, I, never mind. I answered my own question on that one. Okay. I think I've got it now. All right. I, I, I, all right. I appreciate your help. It's just, I'll, for some reason, I'm not able to get it on to the big desktop computer. [silence] And [silence] Okay.
15:00
Speaker 2
No, unfortunately, there's no option. The only option for it is to take a screenshot and from that screenshot, you can, you can print it out, but other than that, there's no other option to print it out as a documented form.
15:00
Speaker 1
But I can get those on my iPad. So that works out for me. I think you, and I appreciate your help. Thank you very much. You too. Bye-bye.
16:00
Speaker 2
[silence] I see. [silence] All right, thank you so much for calling Linksys. [silence] Take care and have a great day. [silence] Bye bye for now.
