So in regards to the current unit, a solid red light indicated that it's not connected to Spectrum whatsoever and it may need a factory reset so it can try to reconnect and work successfully. And in terms of, setting up the router all over again from scratch, if you have the Linksys app, the app will guide you all the way through from setting it.

Uh if you may not have the app, you can try setting it up using your computer instead, since it can be set up either through the phone or through a computer. However, before any further. Uhuh, I'm sorry, what was it? In setting up the router, it does not need a internet. Before any further troubleshooting may also start, I do have to set expectations that your current MR 8300 version 1.1 is unfortunately...
06:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Really? Okay. Okay, I didn't I didn't I didn't realize it was that old. I thought it was maybe like three years old, four years old. Okay. I'm sorry. Uh, okay. Uh, what would it okay. If I down Okay. If I download app and go follow the process and try to reset it. Otherwise, what would it cost to have uh you or technical support people troubleshoot for me if I can't get it working? [silence]
07:00
Speaker 2
Uh, I'm sorry. I see. Uh-huh. In terms of that one, we cannot troubleshoot it for you, since we're only available through the phone support. We can at least try to guide you through it.

08:00
Speaker 2
But since it's no longer in warranty, it is optional, it cost $15. Um... On the laptop, you cannot download the app since it needs to be on a phone or tablet. Instead, you go using the web browser. To enter the router, you just need to search my router. local. All in one word. It is my router. local.
08:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Um and then follow instructions. Okay. Okay. Then last question. Okay. Cause I did not realize okay. Would you recommend then maybe getting new router. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. But now Okay. it now Okay, even my phone, no internet connection. Okay. Go to settings. no WAN Wy're nacionales, not even my phone is not functioning.

Speaker 2
[HUMAN_REVIEW] mm hmm okay yes in terms of the current model that you have an MR 8300 is one of the middle age routers it's still working it's still good it's still one of those strong and still considered good and up to date however it's not the optimal that it can provide you so yes it's can it's best to consider getting a new one
09:00
