sorry. so I currently have the model number MX062200. that's the current model that I have. sorry. I replaced the WH with the MX6200. my question is, can I connect the w h a and the 6200 to give me some direct access um to like my printer? okay. I'll try. yes. yes. sorry. sorry. sorry.
03:00
Speaker 2
[silence] Are you referring - if you can add the - to the MX2 onto the child no? Or [silence] one MX2. how many do you have? [silence] three. Okay. [silence] You as long as the WHU is [silence]
03:00
Speaker 1
Okay, can you tell me how to do that? [silence] I do [silence] in order for nick [silence] in order for them to connect first. Okay. [silence] Let's see here.
04:00
Speaker 2
checking. Yes, you can actually add it as a child node or extension to the current existing system that you have the MX6200. Do you have sir, the linksys app? Okay. You have first sir, you have to place the WHW03 that you have at least near with the parent node or within the same room of the parent node. You have to turn them on at least 5 feet. Yes. Before you connect them, sir, you have to reset them. So plug them in within the same location where your parent node is. Let's give them like two to three minutes and then we'll do a proper reset of each system we can do a soft reset now to clarify also then will sync them to Linksys app after doing that soft reset. Are you placing this? Yes. So, this will give their reset. So, after we will going reset them we will sync some with Linksys app, then will turn all the devices off wait for 30 seconds and then turn all of them on again with five feet cadrence and hopefully it will show up. Success but if it's not updating the app, we can sync those devices in the Linksys app what is your mode of chat:
04:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so I have to reset the the MX. Okay, cuz I do not want to reset the MX. There. Okay. Okay, okay, hold on. The the WH is going to be located um, in a different room. So, it's not going to be in the same room with the parents. But you're saying in order for it to work for for us to get it to set up, we got to first connected in the same room, is that what you're telling me? Right?
05:00
Speaker 2
not the MX said WHW03 not the MX just the WHW03 yeah will not do anything sir on the MX. Just the WHW03
05:00
Speaker 1
Welcome. So, I need to get the Blinksys app turned on first? Uh, uh, so, I plugged it into an outlet. Are you telling me I need to get the the Ethernet cable and connect it? Okay, so I got the power, but it don't seem like it's like lit. Is it O for on? The line.
06:00
Speaker 2
Let's turn on first, sir, the child nodes, the WHW03. Did you plug them in at least near with the parent? Okay. no, sorry, just the power. Can you double check, sir, if the there's actually a switch at the bottom? Can you check if it's on? I think it's the the eye. Yes.
06:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. Uh, let me see. It's hard to see. If it's blue, is it supposed to be a blue light? Okay, it's hard to tell, but the light is bad. Let me see.
07:00
Speaker 2
It's still not working or not lit up, sir. Usually, sir, if we just turn it on, or if we just plug it in, it will be solid blue or blinking blue. That means it's recovering.
07:00
Speaker 1
okay now it's it's ready the newest yeah now it's ready yes uh blinking red slow blinking red so the other one is yeah one a slow blinking red and then the other one is not working okay two of them are coming on
08:00
Speaker 2
Blinking red sir, or solid red?
08:00
Speaker 1
Both are blinking red. Okay, am I gonna need to have the Linksys app open? Yeah, let me see. And it would be on my phone, correct.
09:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Okay. So let's give them say two minutes before we proceed with the reset. Um, yeah, we will have to have the links is up. Sir can you open the links up? Let's make sure first that we can that we have the links is up ready. Correct.
09:00
Speaker 1
Oh, man. I won't. My password. Ah. Um, it says enter my, my email and then my, my, router, router password. Router password.
10:00
Speaker 2
What do you have, sir, on the app? [silence] Aside from the email, sir, [silence] aside from the email, do you have another option to log in? [silence] Do you have an option to log in using the router? [silence] Yes, let's use that one, sir.
10:00
Speaker 1
Is that the one that, if somebody wants access to your Wi-Fi? Let me see. No, I just have my I have my Linksys password. Excuse me. I have the password that goes to my VELA, which is the name of my my router, but it's for Wi-Fi access. I mean, I can try that. I don't know if that's the right thing or not.
11:00
Speaker 2
let's use the one instead of the email. Uh, no, sir, when you actually set up the MX 6200, aside from configuring the Wi-Fi name and password, it will also ask you to create a router password. Um, do you remember your router password or no? Okay. Well, for this one, sir, since your parent node is working, we may not be able to use the default password, but, you actually have an option to reset password. It won't affect the Wi-Fi. It won't reset the Wi-Fi password. It will just reset the password that is associated on the app only. So you can use the reset password.
11:00
Speaker 1
okay I'm on my desktop like sis where do I go huh-huh how do I do that tablets and homes okay let me go to it so do a reset now that you saying the reset is not going to mess up anything right
13:00
Speaker 2
Sorry, sir. Are you trying to use, the LinkSys app here on your desktop? Uh, the LinkSys app here is not compatible with computer. It's only with tablet and phones, nur? Your smartphones sis? We can continue to share your phone for the Linksys app. Okay Sir.
13:00
Speaker 1
Okay. So hit reset pass. Oh, yeah. Reset password. [silence] Oh. And that's coming off of the device. [silence] Okay. Set root new pass word. [silence] Okay, it must be 10 characters. [silence]
14:00
Speaker 2
It's up there. Yes, Select Blog. Yes, we did that. Well, first. It will ask for it will ask for a recovery key. On the parent node. Yes, the MX six 600. It's a five digit key. Yes, it's 10 characters with capital letters, small letters, a number and a special character. And then do not order them, sir, double letters or double numbers.
14:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I'm trying to get him set up. Do you wanna say today? Okay, let me see, ma'am. Hey. Let me see,I'm sorry. Okay, recent password. Okay, got it. It's not advanc-ing. Look at the bottom of the router recovery key. I did. It's not advancing. Okay, let me go back. Okay, login. [silence] on a special character okay getting router settings dashboard awesome Okay, good job. Okay, I'm ready. Should the light, should the light, should the light be blinking red? Does it matter if when you said select it in the one okay okay so hold it until the light turns blue [silence] it was red it was blinking I'm holding it now it's blue let it go [silence]
15:00
Speaker 2
Either... It doesn't matter sir, either blinking or solid, you can just choose since we were just going to reset them anyway. So, um, once you start holding the reset button, press and hold the reset button sir for 30 seconds. Once you start holding it, observe the LED light because it's important. The LED light will start blinking red three times and then the light will turn off. And then once it's uh once it's turned off, wait for the light to turn blue before you let go of the reset. That is within 30 seconds. Yes.
19:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so let me do that for all three of them. Because I can do all three, right? Press and hold.
20:00
Speaker 2
Let go Say Yes. Yes the WHW 003.
20:00
Speaker 1
you tell if if if one is active? are you able to detect activity on the WH? okay. okay. okay. uh I got a blue a slow blinking blue it looks like a fade in and out yeah two slow blinking blues.
21:00
Speaker 2
Sorry, sir. No, sir, we don't have that option, sir, on our and for security reasons, so it will just depend on the LED light of the node. All right. Okay. All right. And are you done, sir, with all the
21:00
Speaker 1
no the first one No the first one yeah the first one that I it went back to red So so I want to do I do I new did restart it again reset I'm solid red okay I'm done I've done all three two out of the three are solid red okay they're already
22:00
Speaker 2
you just have one left. okay, that's fine. no need sir. so since since you have the WHW03 usually the LED light of this one after reset is um it's like a pink red or solid red. okay, that's fine as long as you're done sir with the reset. how many WHW03 left or you're done with the WHW okay. okay. and then we'll just have to wait with the one so if all the WHW03 sir are up and we will proceed with the link cs app again.
22:00
Speaker 1
so I have add a node to vell, uh, set up expand your mesh network coverage and I have replace links this router so I'm going with expand my mesh network. Okay, it says allow links is defined so i allow terms and conditions.
23:00
Speaker 2
So, let's open the, the longest app. And then there's the, uh, there's the three lines on the upper left hand corner. That's the menu. Select that one. And then scroll down, look for set up a new product. And then select the add node to your home Wi-Fi or home network. Yes sir. Select the add node to your, your current setup to extend. Allow sir, yes.
23:00
Speaker 1
Additional nodes into the power near the router has done.
24:00
Speaker 2
Agree to terms? Yes. Select node. Yes. Select node? Let it solve it. [silence] So we'll have to wait for the loading bar sir. Once it find at least one of the child nodes, you'll have a different page next. Once it's done looking for the child nodes sir and then it's able to add the child
24:00
Speaker 1
Okay. None are blinking yet. [silence] This could take from four to six minutes per child node. Oh, now that you're solid red.
25:00
Speaker 2
Node one of the child node will start blinking and then it will say adding child nodes. [silence] Okay, so since you have that page already, sir, um, do you see any changes on the WH03 child nodes? The LED light, [silence] so three of them are still solid red. right so let's just give it uh... let's just give them some time sir I'm going to set a timer for six minutes since you have that page. if you need to do something else while we're waiting you can take your time okay.
25:00
Speaker 1
Can you believe I found that box? I knew... I'm starting to think it's not like me just to throw something like that away. Okay, one is blinking. One is blinking red. Okay. Okay, so that's what we're looking for blinking red is the key. Okay. So, so why is going through this process? Um, that I can set this these additional nodes in any room to help give me the extra coverage, correct?
27:00
Speaker 2
Okay. So usually they're okay. Usually each node will take four to six minutes. So it might take a while. Yeah. So we'll just have to leave it us as it is as long as the nodes are blinking red. So that means that the parent node was able to find them. yes. Okay. correct, sir. Yes.
28:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. Is there a possibility of connecting a device with Ethernet to it? What that mean? Okay, cuz that's the only thing that I see is an Ethernet. Okay. Okay, thank you.
29:00
Speaker 2
yes. via ethernet sir yes to the child node. you can actually as long as there's an ethernet port available on the child node you can wired a device to it. so you can take your time sir. I'll just be here. let me know if you see any changes on the LED light color. you're welcome. Are you asking me, sir?
29:00
Speaker 1
Got one note over here atywin. It'd be solid green. Okay. Okay.
32:00
Speaker 2
Once the child node, sir, is online, um, you will, uh, the LED light of the W, the WHW03 will be solid green. Yes.
32:00
Speaker 1
I got one connected it's a solid green can I move it to another room or should I wait till all three are connected okay okay Ooh,thank you Jesus and two nodes.
33:00
Speaker 2
Okay, that's good. Let's wait through once three are connected. [silence]
33:00
Speaker 2
Well, usually, sir, we do not recommend the child nodes to be near each other, because it will cause interference. We recommend them to be at least 20, 30 ft. distance. Okay. That's the TV, sir.
34:00
Speaker 1
vector but I'm still I'm just going to set it near I'mducta node near the TV yeah I yeah that is my plan is to set the node I almost went out and bought a an additional MX Yeah, yeah and umm, It's just within the last two years that I think I replaced the MX, can you see when I replaced them? Okay, so it's been almost uh, it'll be two years in August. Yeah. so and and I did that because you all Linksys had recommended that I upgrade. And it wasn't until later on that I started having some other issues and come to find out I didn't need to upgrade, we had to do something in terms of um, uh cable wasn't giving the right communication. So, I spent
36:00
Speaker 2
Tell me more. Your network Well, this here is around uh August 24th of 2024.
37:00
Speaker 1
3 400 however much money it was that I bought that new mx and something just hit me today saying you know what I should be able to get some extra extension if these two things talk to each other. I should be able to expand and my assessment was correct. Okay two out of three are green. No it's still red. Yes. Oh yeah. Now the app said reset your node. Press and hold. So I need to reset it.
38:00
Speaker 2
Mm-Hmm. Hmm. Okay. And how's the other, W-H-O-0-33, Seer, the last one? Is it blinking? Oh, okay. Solid red? Okay. And how about on the apps, uh, what do we have on the linksys app? Okay.
38:00
Speaker 1
no it says I it says reset your node press and hold and then it says I've done this this will erase all settings okay plug additional nodes into the power next oh it's like it's restarting I don't think so no no I do not [silence]
39:00
Speaker 2
[silence] before you do that one, sir, what's your option on the link list up? Do you have an option to click next? Um select sir, I've done that. Do you have an option sir to go back to the main page like on the main dashboard? Oh okay. Um yeah, let's try sir, one last reset on the last WHW03. So, um same thing, press and hold, the LED light will blink red, and then it will turn off, wait for it to turn to solid blue before letting go.
39:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Did you let go already? Okay.
40:00
Speaker 1
I should I not have? Okay. Okay, don't let it run through the process again. Close it. Okay. Okay. Ready to complete set up? Complete set up. I don't want to continue. [silence]
41:00
Speaker 2
I know, so it's okay to let go, I think it's already 30 seconds. And then, um, just go back, sir to DLINKSYS app, um, close the app, remove it on the running background of your phone and then open it again to refresh the app. Uh, yeah, do not let it run to the process again. So, just close it and then remove it on the running background, then open it. Um, yeah, just proceed sir, complete set up.
41:00
Speaker 1
Looking for the child nodes. This could take up to a minute. Yes, yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am.
42:00
Speaker 2
And then what's your option now, sir, on the page on the app. Ah, okay. But the other two WHW 0 3 0, they remain solid green, right? Ah, okay.
42:00
Speaker 1
[silence] yet this doesn't have anything what was No. No, no changes. Red. [silence] I'm accurate. Oh four to six minutes. And I, and I don't and I actually don't need it. Do I have to have all three? Yeah. Right. I don't have to have it. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I'll do that. I'll plug that in. Okay. Yes, ma'am.
43:00
Speaker 2
Might we could close that one sir, because it's already beyond six minutes. Can you close the app and then we move? You mean the other child node? No need, sir. If you, if you... Oh, okay. If you, if you think you're good with the two child nodes that we have, then you can just use that one, sir. You can just unplug the one that's solid red. Alright. Oh, okay. And then you can close the app. And then those two child node remain solid green, right? Okay, sir. You can unplug them, sir, and then move them to your preferred location. So, plug them in and then let's give them like...
48:00
Speaker 1
okay, stay on the phone, let me take the first one. i gotta run quickly. let me do the first one. and you said it should be what color?
49:00
Speaker 2
d to 5 minutes we'll just have to wait for them to turn to solid red that means they reconnected again yeah I'll just stay here [silence] solid green sir uh once you plug it back in it will start the recovery
49:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. okay. It's red blinking red blinking red blinking right. Okay, let me go relocate the other one.
50:00
Speaker 2
Okay, that's fine Sir. It will take, it will take a few more minutes.
50:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I'm relocating the second one. [silence] All right. [silence] okay. The one one is blue. It's already connected. That's a good thing, right? Yep. Solid green. Solid green. I'm sorry. It just went, it just went to red. God bless America. It just went to red. Okay. Okay. Now it's green. Solid green. [silence]
51:00
Speaker 2
[silence] say say solid, solid blue or solid green. Okay. But let's give it some time, sir. We're we're still within the six minutes time frame. Okay.
54:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay, so that's screen. Let me say. So let me see at the one upstairs is done. You said 20 feet. Okay. Okay. Oh, okay. Okay. This one is solid green. It's working. Two. Two. Two. Wait a minute. Say that one more time. OK, like right now, that TV just started buffering. Why is that happening? OK, so
55:00
Speaker 2
Okay, so how many do we have sure Solid green? Two of, okay, that's good. Right. So observe their connection. You can connect a device wired to it and then if there is a device that's near with that child node, um just refresh the WiFi connection of that device and then connect it to the same name, uh same wifi name because it will copy the same name that you have with your MX 6200. So it will try to connect to that node and then just observe if there is any changes with the connection. Um, for this child node, yeah. Turn off, turn off the WiFi. Maybe it's connected to the farthest node. Turn off the WiFi on that TV.
56:00
Speaker 1
So turn it off or go to the settings. Let me go to. So I'll do setup connection, it doesn't let me. Okay, the connection strength is strong. scan again to see all networks, should I do that? Okay, I got the network. All right, it's connected. [silence]
57:00
Speaker 2
go to the settings of your TV and then turn off the Wi-Fi of that TV to refresh the wireless connection. Yes.
57:00
Speaker 1
band with saver should that be on or off [silence] yeah well it's on the Roku. [silence] It says when bandwidth saver is turned off, an app that has been streaming for four hours or more will continue to stream. [silence] Let's see what happens if it's on. If you haven't used the remote in four hours, a message will display asking you if you're still waiting. If you don't respond, the app will stop streaming. Okay. So that's the only difference. Okay, so
58:00
Speaker 2
Bandwidth, saver, is that, sir, on your TV? Let me double check if that should be on. Did you leave it on, say? okay. Okay. And then, did you connect the TV back to the Wi-Fi? Okay. But try to check, sir, if it's... try to check if it's, like.
58:00
Speaker 1
Okay. [ silence ] Well right now it's not doing anything.
60:00
Speaker 2
If you have an improvement with the connection if or if it's still buffering. [silence] It has an ability to pull.
60:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, no, no, no, it's it's it's working, but you know how it is. Whenever you got somebody where you're trying to recreate something, it's never going on the happen, while they're on the phone. You know what I mean? Yeah. Sure, sure. I will. Okay. Now, there is a link, sis. Um, no, I think I think as long as I got those two as long as I got those child notes connected, then I'll be able to observe and make sure everything else is good. So so I'll take it from there. Yeah, that that'll that'll be good. Um, yeah. [silence]
61:00
Speaker 2
So I have any sites. Okay. Oh, okay. I see. Yeah. But as long as it, but as long as you think that it's working, so then you can observe the connection. Would you like to try other device? Oh, okay. Yeah. So, so, so, so, for the MX 6200, sir. If they're online. The LED light are solid white, but for the
61:00
Speaker 1
Yes. There are online. So there's an app on my computer. Uh, yeah, there's an app on my computer, a LinkSys app. Is that not the same? What is that? Um, all right. I have to turn on the laptop to tell you, but I was able to access my panel through my, my, my desktop, through my my laptop, with no problems.
62:00
Speaker 2
uh-huh. all right. So, yeah, um, do you have any follow-up questions or will there be anything else? What's the color icon of that app?
62:00
Speaker 1
Okay, let me tell you.
63:00
Speaker 2
What's my nose say? Okay. [silence] I think that's the web interfacer.
63:00
Speaker 2
Sorry, I'm not sure what you're referring to. Can you please explain further?
64:00
Speaker 1
Not going, not going. It's not doing anything. It says link this remote, not to his, the URL says link this remote management.
65:00
Speaker 2
Where are you at, sir? access router?
65:00
Speaker 1
so I'm in the wrong area so then I go to the dance my router dot info
66:00
Speaker 2
Oh, okay. Well, for that, that website, sir, for the, um for the Linksys, um that one has already been discontinued. So that's the reason why it's no longer moving forward. Um try instead, sir, uh no need, sir. Just, um, you can open a new tab on the browser that you're using and then go to myrouter.ph Correct. [silence]
66:00
Speaker 1
OK, access develop within the router password. ok.
67:00
Speaker 2
Yes, enter the router password that you have created on the app earlier.
67:00
Speaker 2
okay yeah just use that one sir my router dot info and then login using your router password because the remote access page for this one or the website for remote access that one has already been discontinued um I guess two weeks ago sir we have last month we last month we received an information that it was about to be discontinued and then they implemented that one like around two weeks ago All right. So yeah anything else there? You're welcome sir. If anything else just give just give us a call okay and then if you decide to change the um sorry if you decide to use just use the
68:00
Speaker 1
OK. All right. Thank you. You too. Bye-bye.
69:00
Speaker 2
the other child nodes just reset that node again sir and then add it using the link sees app since you know now how to log into the app and then add the child node from the options on the app all right you're welcome sir so yeah I hope you have a good day now sir you take care okay thank you sir m bye
69:00
