Are you referring to a local IP address or the IP address?
00:00
Speaker 1
I'm sorry, say that one more time. Uh I'm not sure they they came and um had it gave us a fiber connection. Um but they said that we need to update the static IP on our router and I'm trying to figure out how to do that. Um they said that the way the router is set up currently it's not connecting with the fiber cable. It was working fine before with Coax and then we upgraded the fiber and now it's not.
01:00
Speaker 2
I'm assuming your are referring to the local- local IP address or the internet IP address.
01:00
Speaker 1
I'm trying to go through into my, I'm going into my router and trying to update it with a new gateway, subnet and IP address so that it can, it can connect, but I'm unable to get into my router and update those configurations. Okay. So we have a Linksys right now. We have a Linksys EA6100. That's our modem, correct? Okay. So, [silence].
02:00
Speaker 2
Let's just try. So your modem or your gateway is set into static IP address, or configured into static IP address. Now I'm asking sir if your modem or gateway is configured into static IP? No, it's your router. Who is your internet service provider?
02:00
Speaker 1
uh yes yes um I'm not sure um so I believe it's a uh uh local one then uh yes are you ready it's 14X 10 6 8 5 1
03:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Comm Cox Internet. So they also, they provided a modem, right? Black box. Or a gateway. Is it set into static IP address? Yeah, because we can actually change or we can set the local IP address of the router. Sir, but if you're referring to the Internet IP address, so you really need to call Cox to configure your modem. But, can you please provide the serial number of your linker system roeper?
03:00
Speaker 1
14758 There was an 8 at the end. I think you might have cut out. Hello? Yes . Correct. Yeah, my name is Colton Reddish. Yes, and Reddish,
04:00
Speaker 2
Okay, so it's one, four, X-ray, one, zero, six, zero, eight, five. One, four, seven, five. Okay, yeah. One, four, X-ray, one, zero, six, zero, eight, five. One, four, seven, five, eight. Okay, so can I know your first name and last name? Colton C-O-L-T-O-N [silence]
04:00
Speaker 1
R E D D I S H [silence] 9 5 1 9 7 0 4 7 2 9. [silence] It's Colton@mcookindustries.com. [silence] Um, no, we're using this same one. They they did provide us a new modem when they installed the fiber.
05:00
Speaker 2
and your callback number called and and your email. again, you have one linksys router, okay... this is actually the explanation. Do you have a new modem, sir? okay, so let me just explain you why you need to set the, local IP address into static. You can actually we do that if you have devices and because if you're going to use a public IP address of the router sir, it automatically change after a restart or reboot, particularly after reset. So, there are some devices that all the IP address of your devices that are connected to the router will change from time to time. That's why you need to set the local IP address because you don't want your devices to use a different IP address every time it was, it will reboot or restart. That's the purpose of the local IP address. But for the internet IP address, that's the router itself or the modem itself. You need to set the modem into static IP address and then set the router into static IP address to work together. That's why I'm asking if you're referring to the internet IP address, what is your IP address? Is it public or static and your modem?
05:00
Speaker 1
Um, how can I tell? Uh, yes they did. So, I, I, I tried to do that, um, but none of, like, when I go to, like, the linksys 192.168.1.1. Like, and try to log in. [silence]
07:00
Speaker 2
the router dot yeah, but then, when I tried also to verify, um, it shows that your Lincus, um, router is already out of warranty, sir. for out of warranty devices, we are no longer offer live support for this one. but then we have a page support. so I can still assist you on how to access the web interface of the router, where you can type all the credentials that it needs, but you need to pay 15 dollars and it's good for
07:00
Speaker 1
It doesn't accept any of the information. And so I tried to do it online and walk through that process, but it's asking for a password and the password doesn't work. Okay. I tried both of those um and neither of those allowed me to enter your linksys smart wifi. Okay. Okay. So what do you what do you suggest I do?
08:00
Speaker 2
that you can try you can try to reset your lynx system router and use the admin the default admin password or lowercase a d m i n or the password labeled underneath of the router yeah but that's the only thing that's the only password that you're going to use to access the web interface for this device so either you're going to reset your lynx system router or use myrouter.local to access its settings [silence]
08:00
Speaker 1
Okay. So when I type in admin, when I press enter, it says invalid router password. Please try again. The password underneath the router is SR0XE0Y. I type that in.
09:00
Speaker 2
it is actually let you insert, as what I mentioned earlier, reset the router. Try to use 192.168.1. 1 or myrouter.local to access the web interface and for the router password, is only thing that you're going to use admin or lowercase admin or the password label underneath it will work. How about the password underneath of the router?
09:00
Speaker 1
And it also says, invalid router password, please try again.
10:00
Speaker 2
that's why you need to reset your link this router for both password so it will work in accessing the web interface press and hold the reset button for just 20 to 30 seconds sir for the reset process. yeah there's a label reset on it. Of course you need to reconnect to reconnect to the computer so your link is default Wi-Fi name and enter the default Wi-Fi password connect with your links router first and access the web interface. Okay, so thank you so much sir and have a great day. Bye for now.
10:00
Speaker 1
That'll poll cost money, right? Okay. Yeah, I want you to come to the show. Okay. Sounds good. Well, thank you. All. Thanks. Bye.
