01:00
Speaker 1
I don't see I didn't see a model number on it. Um, we need to check and see if it's working properly because our uh all of our wi-fi is working except for our printer will not connect to the to the uh wi-fi and also we have um a password on there. So we've got like a hundred different uh listings on the wi-fi thing, you know, connections and we don't have a hundred, I mean we've got maybe 10 at the most. So uh it's possible that it's been compromised or our system's been compromised or something. We don't know exactly what to do with that. [silence]
02:00
Speaker 2
right now we're starting one map you just made know what's the problem with this router SilentMm-hmm
02:00
Speaker 1
that might be a security thing, you know? Yeah. not connecting at all. I mean, we have a printer that it just won't connect to the Wi-Fi at all. It goes I've tried turning it off and turning it on, unplugging it and all that stuff and it just it won't connect to our internet. It's asking us to download software to start all over again. And we it's, you know, we were using it before, so we don't know why it's not [silence].
03:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Alright and also may I know, may I know your internet service provider, ma'am? Okay. So when you connect your printer, ma'am, to the Wi-Fi, what's the error message? Mm. yeah.
03:00
Speaker 1
connecting or if you, if it's on the list of items to be connected, yeah, that's what I'm trying to find out. it's a Hewlett. Mm-hmm. Yes. Yes, ma'am. it says download the software to get started, you know, to restart the whole thing all over again, reregistering and all that stuff. So I don't know if it's on the Wi-Fi list of things that are connecting to the internet or not. I don't know if you can pull that up on your end or not. Uh, I called I called Hewlett Packard and he said it was a security problem with the Wi-Fi.
04:00
Speaker 2
I see. I see right. And this printer is working before when you connect it to the Wi-Fi? Hmm. All right. It just said it needs a software update. Um all right. Let me double check here. Hmm. Alright! So what the mm-hmm, yes. What what did you call man?
04:00
Speaker 1
So I don't know if I don't know I have no idea Uh huh Yes, ma'am. I spoke to him briefly. I didn't have time to get into it completely. So, but what I'm trying to find out is why we have so many items attached to our Wi-Fi connection. You know, on the list, it's I'm listening. Uh well, well we have an iPad. We have iPads. So it tells us how many items are connected to to the Wi-Fi. There's a ton of them. So I don't know.
05:00
Speaker 2
So you already contacted the manufacturer of the printer. Where did you find that many devices are connected? Is it on the app or website? in your iPad or is it the link s app?
05:00
Speaker 1
What's connected to your Wi-Fi? I don't know if you can if you can see that from your end or not, what's connected to the set
06:00
Speaker 2
Like where did you find out that there are many devices? Yes, where did you find out if, what are the devices connected to your Wi-Fi? Is it, did you access it on the browser or is it the app, the Linksys app?
06:00
Speaker 1
Linksys Wi-Fi. Linksys system. Yes, ma'am. Yeah, our Wi-Fi is working okay. Our internet connection is working okay, but we can't get our printer to connect to the Wi-Fi. Of course, that's not your problem, but uh, but what would you would you what did you need me to do? Uh, uh uh, you only okay? Okay.
07:00
Speaker 2
I can help find it in my end, man. But try to access a browser. Your iPad is connected to the Wi-Fi, right? All right. Uh-huh. OK. Open a browser. Let's check how many devices are connected. And also, let me see here. Uh-huh. Yes. OK. So on the address bar, kindly type.

08:00
Speaker 1
Well, I don't know. We disconnected the internet cable and waited, you know, 20 seconds or whatever and then plugged it back in. The internet came back on, so. Okay. Okay. Okay. 192.168.1.1 Just the numbers that I typed in. That's it. They didn't go anywhere. Here, let me see. Hold on. Okay, I'm sorry. Um, it goes to router, it goes to the the website.

There's a, uh, there's a long bar on the upper part, corner of that screen. Did you input the one there? Um, it should not be on the search bar, ma'am. it should be on the address bar or URL bar. But let's try the ask this other, [silence] How about this? Type in http:// Oh, no, mom, it should be the other one. But let's try this one instead. Now, delete that one and then type in http:// / /.

15:00
Speaker 2
All right, still on the result page. Okay, can we, you are still on the result page, man? All right. Can you delete that one and then change it to my router.local?
15:00
Speaker 1
Got mine? [silence] Got mine. [silence] What do we know? Looking for user? I look user. Interface. Let's see if that pulls up. Okay. Then it tells me how to access a link. Let's say smart Wi-Fi router. Gives me instructions on that. Okay.
16:00
Speaker 2
going to be smart be wise page yes, the user interface.
16:00
Speaker 1
That's it. It's just giving me instructions on how to Do it. Right. Can you do a remote access? [silence]
17:00
Speaker 2
All right, okay One moment here. Okay, let's see. You are still routed to the search page or to the result page, because you should be routed to the alenisxmartWifi page, where you need to access the interface and input the router password. yeah, it's just an instruction. Okay, let me double check. Um, no, I'm not.
17:00
Speaker 1
Okay. okay. okay. Right. Right. Uh, no, it's just asking me to re-register or start, you know, like when you first get your printer and it asks you to, to scan the QR code and, you know, start all over again, like you just bought the printer. Yeah. No, it won't. Mhm. I mean, it's it may be, [silence]
18:00
Speaker 2
I don't have that access here at my end. Because since only the printer is not connected, right, or won't connect to the Wi-Fi because it gives you an error to download a software. I see. All right, and you already unplugged and then re-plugged the printer, but still it won't connect. Okay, got it.
18:00
Speaker 1
something I have to go to HP, and spend three hours on the phone with them trying to straighten it out, but what I was trying to find out, yeah. Yeah. Correct. Yeah. Uh-huh. Right. Okay. Well, what I'm trying to find out also is I'm not sure how we did this, but uh somewhere on the iPad, it tells you what all the devices that are connected to the Lynx it. Okay. there's like hundreds of them on there, and we don't have that many, we'd have maybe 10 or 15 maybe at the most.
19:00
Speaker 2
Mhm. because if that's the case, because if this is the case, then since you mentioned that some of our the devices are working and connected to the Wi-Fi and only the printer is not, you really need to contact the manufacturer directly so that they can assist you on how to connect their printer to the Wi-Fi. Mhm.
19:00
Speaker 1
And we-we don't have a way of telling whetherwhat to do with it. Okay. Hold on just a minute. Yeah. Hold on. How did you find all of the devices that were connected to the Range? Okay. Taketa, Sadie, is your Jonathan?
20:00
Speaker 2
Yes, and that is why. Yes. Yes, ma'am. That's why I'm asking if where did you um check that one out, if it's a from the website or from the app so that we can double check if it is from the Link service website or from the Link service interface. [silence]
20:00
Speaker 1
Hold on just a second. It's that what you did. Yeah, I got logged into the link. Okay, because he has the lynx's app on his iPad and I don't. He's trying to log into it.
21:00
Speaker 2
well we want to have the dr. Chike Okay, I see.
21:00
Speaker 1
0. 5 6 60 10 zero. this thing is being recorded okay he's into it he's logged in and he's it's getting the router settings okay I'm on the router itself. That's the last five connections and stuff, but total total devices, it says 484. Yeah, 486. 486 devices. We don't have 484 devices, but I don't know. Devices to the internet router. No, that's not. A speed check. I don't need a speed check. I don't think. There you go. Devices to internet. It's asking me to do a speed test. Should I do that or?
22:00
Speaker 2
Did you click devices? Are they connected devices or offline devices? Just click the devices.
23:00
Speaker 1
Shouldn't do that. Okay, let me. He doesn't. I got to clear this out. Unfortunately, my iPad is dumbing. There you go. Okay. I still don't have my three lines, though. So, let me go back to another one. here. Yep, you went up here. the wrong page, but okay. All right. [silence]
24:00
Speaker 2
All right, just click the three lines on the upper left corner of the screen. Can you see it? Mm-hm. [silence]
24:00
Speaker 1
How do you know I've got 15 devices? Yeah. How do you know? I mean. The blue picture tells you, like this one's white. That's not connecting. Okay. I think. Most of them are connected, like television, iPads. Yeah, pretty much. What's this one? That's the link. Yeah. [silence]
25:00
Speaker 2
So 15 devices are connected when you click the devices. All right, are they connected devices or offline devices? I think you can recognize that devices that are connected, the 15 devices. Um because the other devices are I think they are offline. Maybe they're
25:00
Speaker 1
That's offline.
26:00
Speaker 2
If... Mm-hm. If there is a device there, ma'am, that you don't recognize, what I can highly suggest is for you to change the Wi-Fi password of your Wi-Fi. But if you change some settings of your router, the devices that are connected to your Wi-Fi will be disconnected and you need to connect it manually using the new pass...
26:00
Speaker 1
Oh, brother. We don't see we don't see any printers. There's no printers on here at all, is there? Not that I can see. Yeah, it's not. But it's the bottom is showing. I don't know. Go ahead. I'm sorry. I was I was going to say that at the bottom of the page it says offline devices 106. So, the printer might be in there somewhere. I don't know. Let me see that something.
27:00
Speaker 2
for the password that you will be creating. But since, yeah, because it's not yet connected. That's why it's not showing there. Right. So for that, mmhmm. I just go ahead, ma'am. [silence] but on the offline device, there are options for you to remove that one. Just click the device. If you bought, [silence]
27:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay. Okay, so okay, okay, okay, okay. yeah Yeah. Okay. Okay. No, that's Okay. That's Okay. I'll just call back if I need to. I'm thinking it's going to be one of these offline devices somewhere that's not connecting to the printer. It's not listening. You know, Yeah, it is. That's the printer right there. Okay. And is it online or No, it's offline. Okay, well you need to turn it back on then I don't know. Offline. I have to go to the printer and
28:00
Speaker 2
If you are bothered, if you are bothered to see if how many devices are connected. And if this is the case, then try to contact your manufacturer directly from the printer, uh, of your printer. And if still there is an issue then you can contact us back so that we can try to double check your router. Good. I can provide you a ticket number so that you will not repeat yourself. Um, in case you will contact us back. [silence] and then the person is just kind of stammering um, [silence]
28:00
Speaker 1
and log it in and register it, but okay. All right. Well we got you for part of the problem anyway. So we'll call the printers and see if they can help. thank you. Thank you for your patience. You're welcome. You too.
29:00
Speaker 2
mm-hmm. all right. all right ma'am, thank you so much for contacting assist. you're welcome ma'am, and have a good one. bye, for now. [silence]
