So before we proceed further, sir, with the troubleshooting, let me just run some verification with you and create a record of you here on our system. So let me start with your full name.
01:00

03:00
Speaker 2
All right. Let me just verify it again. It's five zeroes, D for Delta, one zero N for Mike, two eight C for Charlie, zero six, things, too. All right. And how many notes do you have, sir? I'm sorry? Yeah. Yeah. How many notes? How many MX2000 do you have? Or links is routers or devices? I see. All right. Thank you. And could you finally include the nr of nodes. Because in my inventory I have? [silence]
03:00
Speaker 1
Yes, I will, but, uh, I have to put it in another area. Um, Do I need to run a wire between them or what? But, um, the place I'm going to use will have a internet wire. I can connect it to the internet wire. Do I need to use the other one as a child or I can use it separately as a, uh, [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
okay, aren't you going to use it? I can help you in, you know, adding the child node for you to have two working nodes. You can connect to it wirelessly, sir. You can use it as a child, sir, it would be better if you're going to use it as a child because [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. Yeah we can connect it. I mean you need to move it near the the parent node or the main router that you have and then connect it wirelessly and then after we successfully added. added the child node we can relocate it to a different area.
05:00
Speaker 1
And how what is the maximum? [silence] You said 30 to 50. If it is more than 50 it can't connect it, right? Oh this house uh the other side that I'm going to use is more than 50 ft. So that I have Yeah I have over there I can connect it directly to the router. Does that work this way too because that is more than 50 ft.
06:00
Speaker 2
It should be at least 30 to 50 ft away from the parent node, or the main router. Uh what do you mean, maximum, sir? Yeah. Uh you can still connect it, but we suggest at least, I mean, within 30 to 50 for them to have a better communication. Yeah. All more than fee? Mhm. Okay. Excuse me. Yes. Yeah, you can
06:00
Speaker 1
Okay. That will work this way. So I can can you, you want me to bring it here to set it up and then later I, I disconnect and move it, or I have to put it in the the place that I have to use. My question is
07:00
Speaker 2
Can actually um add the Childnode as a wired Childnode using a uh using an Ethernet cable?
07:00
Speaker 1
Okay. So I can disconnect and move it and connect it to, to the internet on the other side, right? So I don't need to reset anything. Okay, I can go and do this. It is the spectrum.
08:00
Speaker 2
gathered it near the parent node so that we can easily add it to the network. And once it's already added we can proceed in relocating it. Yes sir. Yes sir. Yes sir. Um, I mean, you need to reset it as well since you have reset your main router, so that it would be able to connect, because it might be that uh, the child node is still configured as a child node on your previou- previous network. So, yeah, um, we need to reset it as well. Uh, by the way sir, just to confirm. May I know who's your internet service provider? Spider. Alright. Got it.
08:00
Speaker 1
OK. Do you want me to bring it here or? [silence] Oh, the parent node is in the it is in the garage and the computer is this way, so that makes it difficult to go back and forth if you need to take to use the pattern. Can we do it on the on the phone or not on the Android? [silence]
09:00
Speaker 2
now proceed and gather the child node near your parent node so that we can add it back to the network and reconfigure it. Well, we can do it on the phone, but we can actually give it a try if you want. No, sir. Because you know, considering the distance of your parent node and the child node, it would be difficult for your parent node to locate the child node. But we actually have a different way of adding the child node, which doesn't require the parent, I mean, the phone or a computer. So we can add it manually with a different troubleshooting. So it will be best if you can gather the child node near the parent node so that we can add it back to the network. Sure sir, no problem. You can take your time.
09:00
Speaker 1
OK, I got that one.
12:00
Speaker 2
I'm sorry, sir? What do you mean by 973 and 978?
12:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I have it something. You want me to go close to the to the first one for the main router, main router or? I, I, Okay, the one that is working the other MX 2,000, you mean not the main router, right? Okay. Okay. Not the main router of the house, you mean, right? But the modem, close to that. That's close to that one.
13:00
Speaker 2
the main router? yeah where is the main one? yeah, your your parent your parent node the one that is connected directly to the modem yes sir you need to gather it near the near the main router, the one that is working
13:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Let's need make the power here. Okay. But the closest power line is about 10 feet away. Is that okay? The closest power to that one is about 10 feet away. Yes. That let me see me to find another spot over there.
14:00
Speaker 2
Yes. I'm sorry. 10 feet away? Can you at least bring it at least three feet away?
14:00
Speaker 1
uh what i can do it by a extension cords uh you do that there's your outlets to last to that okay now we can put it next to that sorry for the delay okay connected I connected that and it is one foot away cool okay
15:00
Speaker 2
It's okay sir. No worries. Good. All right. That's good, thank you so much for that one sir. Okay, so let's just give it some time to reboot and set up. I mean um, at least two minutes then we're going to reset your child node.
16:00
Speaker 2
All right, sir. While waiting on that, sir, can I ask for, like, a couple of minutes? Like, uh, at least two minutes. Uh, can I-- I will just go to the toilet if it's okay? All right. Thank you so much.
