hi I was trying to do the parenting controls on one of your devices and obviously when I go to the app and I put the internet and I give the post when I go to the app I then insert the website and it doesn't it doesn't work either I don't do anything so I was wondering if you guys had like an outage or something like that uh I uh know I can't I can't I can't it just doesn't work. Oh, I see what happened. So all you have to do is if you go in, um, to your browser history, there's a history that you should be able to see and that needs to be turned on. I can't tell you how to do it exactly because it's a bit different depending on what pin you have, but what you're trying to do is turn on that area. It's grayed out if you don't turn that on. So make sure that is on and then you should be able to take off websites that you want. Oh yeah, of course, I didn't. [silence] [silence] Yeah, thank you so much, that fixed it. [silence]

01:00
Speaker 2
All right. So you tried to access it on the app and also on the website, correct? But it doesn't work. All right. Can you provide the model number and the serial number of your linksys router? [silence]
01:00
Speaker 1
SD. MX 56. 5, 9. November 10. M29. The left. 3, 4, 9, 8, 8. Internet service provider is, uh, uh, community fiber. But they said it's got nothing to do with them. Basically we said look, this is a problem with it.
02:00
Speaker 2
That's, how about the serial number? I got it. I also may know who is your Internet Service Provider. Community fiber, got it. Mhm.
02:00
Speaker 1
And they said it may have undergoing auditing. And I said, look, this app never works. Why? You know? So are they, are they, are they, are they reported issues on this app, you know, like, so this actually we'll have to-go. You can go through more back and always use mobile app. I'm trying to connect it. I'm not at home, but I'm remote, but I should be able to connect it.
03:00
Speaker 2
All right, let's try to check that one out here, sir. Um, do you have a computer of a laptop or a laptop? Uh, no, sir. Okay. Yes, it will work. But let's try this one. Um, do you have a laptop or a computer that we can use? All right. So, um, are you at home right now? Can you connect to the Wi-Fi, to the Linux Wi-Fi? All right.
03:00
Speaker 1
Parent control is enabled, the device shows that the site should be blocked, but it doesn't block. Okay. And one more thing.
04:00
Speaker 2
So, for this one, sir, so that it will work properly, you need to be connected to it physically. Like, you should be at home. Yes. Um, let's try the website, sir. Yes, you can log in remotely, but we- we can use the website and you need to be connected to your Wi-Fi so that we can access it and enable the parental control on that way. Um, that's why, sir, we need to access the interface of the router by connecting your phone to the Wi-Fi. We will isolate that. Mm-hmm.
04:00
Speaker 1
there are too many devices on the network. Like, the way your router works, you the device, they keep repeating themselves. You know how to make it cleaner. meaning I don't want to reset it. But you guys must have an option where the device are not being repeated. Yeah, but I Yeah, but there are so many. The offline devices are so many. You know, there's like hundreds because what happens, they keep reappearing. Does that make sense? Oh, yeah, so. This is a problem, yeah. They keep reappearing all the time. I my computer. So if the device is connected and it then...
05:00
Speaker 2
You can just remove it one by one or manually, the offline devices. Yes.
05:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, so manage your Wi-Fi, can I [silence] log in remotely? [silence] So...
06:00
Speaker 2
Mm, I see, right, so yeah, the only option for you is for you to remove it manually or it's for you to reset the router, Mm-hmm, Mm-hmm, yeah yeah, I see that. All right, and the last option, sir is for you to, um, delete it manually or remove it manually. Yes. I guess you can still lag and remotely about, let's see a channel. Check it here, because sometimes where I'd.
06:00
Speaker 1
So look I have here. So look I have two login options. I have logging via email and logging by router password. Which is the best one? I should use. That one. That one. Okay. What can I do? Okay. What password am I going to use? Okay. Okay. Okay. I I think I think I have. Let me check it out. Out router router password.
07:00
Speaker 2
The app have some bugs issue. That's why,.... All right. So if you want to connect it remotely, you need to log in to your email, sir. Your email and password. If you want to access that remotely. Okay. So if you don't have a cloud account, sir, you did not connect your router to your account, you cannot access it remotely.
07:00
Speaker 1
[silence] I reset my password. you need to reset your link now to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi account password please find the reset button okay I am just trying to reset my Wi-Fi password if I create a new password will this change my router password because it says your network my go flying
09:00
Speaker 1
I've been here for a few minutes. What? What can I do for you? What? What? What? What? What? What? Stay with me one moment. I'm resetting them. [silence] yeah, I don't need to write the
11:00
Speaker 2
Not your router password, sir, but your account or cloud account password.
11:00
Speaker 1
so this password I can use it to log in remotely so you mean I can also connect via my phone using my website no
12:00
Speaker 2
Yes, sir. But we discourage you to use the app... If you want to enable your parental control, sir. The most accurate is for you to access it on the website. Like you should be connected to your Wi-Fi.
12:00
Speaker 1
So I just want to I wanna say Yeah. small small thank you. Thank you. Okay. Okay, but does this work? Because I've tried and tried and tried, but it doesn't work. yeah yeah, okay, but what I'm saying is why why is this not working? Can we log a ticket with the supply team? because this app should be working, that's the whole point of app, right? The app should be working properly. [silence]
13:00
Speaker 2
Um, no, sir, you should be connect, using the router password. So you should be connected to the Wi-Fi. So once you're at home, sir, you can contact us back, so that we can walk you through. Yes, you tried. Yes, you tried it remotely, but that's why we need to isolate it and access it on the interface using the website. And you should be connected to the Wi-Fi. All right. Um. We can't guarantee that one serv. That's why we're describing
13:00
Speaker 1
Okay, but do you guys report these bugs? Okay. And um, I don't want to stop internet for my son. But what are other ways that I can restrict website and apps? I want to know other methods of parental control. Yeah, but if it's not working, how do we fix it?
14:00
Speaker 2
Rich some users they use the app, so since it's not so accurate, there might be some bugs in that. We are still fixing that. Yes, we already report that ones our team. [silence] Yes, that's the only way the parental controls server. [silence] Right. That's why, sir, um, [silence] I already informed you that you should be [inaudible] us
14:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Yeah. Okay. and also does it matter if I have modern? I have four nodes at home. I have MX56 which is the latest one. And then I have MX55, the other nodes. Yeah, thanks. Does it matter? Yeah, I was just great hell. Might be good to do the trade. I'll see you outside. also like okay, I'll call you from home, yeah? Whatever you guys open until.
15:00
Speaker 2
connected to the Wi-Fi so that we can access the interface of your router and see if the parental control will work on that way and that's the time we will escalate the concern if once we isolated and it still it doesn't work then that's the time we will escalate it to our advanced team. [silence] I see. [silence] It doesn't matter, sir, as long as you are connected to the main [silence.] [silence.] [silence.] [silence.] or the main router.
15:00
Speaker 1
