Speaker 1
Yeah, Hi there. I've got us on hold and, yeah, so I was on the, I'm having trouble with my, I've got a Linksys um, developer system. Um, I've been in trouble with two, two of the, basically the two Nodes, not the parent Node. Um, went online yesterday and used the chat box. I tried a few things and it still didn't work, so it's recommended that I call you to discuss.
13:00
Speaker 2
Sure. Okay, uh holds
13:00
Speaker 1
That's right. Yeah. Yeah, that's it. Well, I've actually unplugged them for now, but yeah, they were red. So it said, I've got a summary of what we did, if that helps you. Okay, so the model number is WHW 03V220J20M3BA12993.
14:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Got it. And uh, your number? [silence] Okay. I've got it.
14:00
Speaker 1
Okay. It's James Russell. That's right, yeah. Uh, it's J M Russell and then it's 06 At aol.co.uk. Uh, it's Um E E as a provider. Uh, E E.
15:00
Speaker 2
all right, thank you. What is your, what is your first name and last name? James Russell. And what is your email address? it's okay. Okay. Who's your internet provider? What? What's the name again? I'm not familiar with that. ee. Oh, okay, got it. Thank you. All right, so you can tell me what have you done so far? The troubleshooting setup?
15:00
Speaker 1
Let me get the summary for you. So, um, two child nodes stuck on solid red light after reset and power cycle, won't reconnect to power node even when nearby. Steps tried is power cycle, factory reset, extended power cycle with parent node. Outcome was that the nodes remained solid red. [ silence ] They were, they sort of flashed a little, a little bit. I think they came on blue for, so I think they're off for I did two minutes on the power - two or three minutes on the parent node, and then I did a five minutes on the, the other, on the, the other node, and then they just, they just went back.
16:00
Speaker 2
What troubleshooting have we done so far? Okay. Okay, thank you. Since you did the reset on the child and then I'm assuming that they were maybe solid pink or magenta, right? after the reset.
16:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Bring the child node or the extender node to where the main node is located, plug it in three to five feet next to the main node or five feet away from the main node. Plug it into power. Oh, thank you. If passible, yes. All right. When the red solid, press the reset button, hold it down for 20 seconds for those child nodes.
17:00
Speaker 1
Okay. [silence] Okay, I've got my. Um, so the first one I reset is like a very faint blue, so it's not quite- it's not like the Aqua blue, it's more of a darker blue. That's, yeah, more fade. The second one's just doing the same thing. Um, looks like it might be pulses a little bit those pulse I think. And like a darker a slightly darker blue. Not as bright as the um blue on the uh main node. Okay. Uh, okay, yeah. So that's when they are magenta then, so I had to-
18:00
Speaker 2
What is the, the light of the child known as now? [silence] Okay. [silence] Okay. [silence] expected light on those child nodes is solid pink or maybe purple can be magenta. [silence] that means they're ready they're ready for setup for ready for them to show that. [silence]
19:00
Speaker 1
Oh, but I, I'm the pulsing, Magenta, I would say. Uh, one's gone solid red now actually, one's gone, one's still on blue. On the, on the parent one, okay, yeah the other two have both gone solid red by the way, you see now. Okay, just done the reset on the there, Eno's, that's flashing amber now, orange. [silence]
20:00
Speaker 2
Alright. On the main node, there's a reset button. Press and release that five times, but not too fast. That is the one-second gap between presses. So it sounds like this: press, release, press, release, five times. Reset button of the parent nodes. (silence) That's okay. Right. Now observe the light of the child nodes we're trying to add and they're also [noise] blinking.
20:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so first one is blinking red. Second one's still solid at the moment. Oh, yes, they're both blinking red, basically. Uh, yes, fine. Now I've got some emails I can be doing. I'll just hang fire. Thanks.
21:00
Speaker 2
blinking maybe blinking red or magenta, then they're communicating to the main node, and we just need to wait three, up to five minutes. that's okay. all right that's good, that's a good sign. So I will set the time right here, that's two, five minutes. And while we're waiting, you might get board. Just watching for five minutes. You can ask me questions, or maybe grab water, coffee, or tea. Have it right over here. Okay, cool, cool.
21:00
Speaker 1
But uh, yes they're both on solid blue now. Okay.
26:00
Speaker 2
Allo? [silence] All right. thank you for patiently waiting. What what happened to the light? [silence] Perfect. You can move them back to where they were before. Do you want me to sign the law when you move down?
26:00
Speaker 1
Don't say again. Do you want me to? Um, you're going to stay on the line. Okay, great. We'll be a minute. Thanks.
27:00
Speaker 2
just move them to where they were before yeah I will stay on the line
27:00
Speaker 1
[silence] I think they're just coming back online. OK. Right, one of them is flashing red. And let's try another one. Yes, they're both flashing red. [silence]
29:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Mm-hmm. All right. We're gonna wait 2 minutes and
29:00
Speaker 1
No. All right. Okay. Play a bit longer. Okay. Just wait a bit longer then. Have you been timing that? Or not? I was just saying, have you been timing it to know exactly how to plug them in? Probably about a minute ago.
30:00
Speaker 2
and it should be solid, Blue one, and being after two minutes. So all I'm saying that we need to wait three up to five minutes and expected light should be solid blue. Yes. I'm sorry, didn't hear that. What was that? Okay, sure. [silence]
30:00
Speaker 1
I'm not sure how long it's been but one of them's gone back to solid blue. That one is also.
32:00
Speaker 2
Great. So that means it's all working now. Right? Yes. You have a question. Do you want to ask something? Are we all good? Very much. Welcome. Thank you. For cooperation and I hope you have a good one. Very welcome. Cheers.
