00:00
Speaker 1
It's worked great for quite some time, I just moved houses actually a few days ago and I also changed internet service for riders and so when I change I got a new modem and everything. It's a modem router in one and I'm having a difficult time getting my node system to work now. In fact, it's not working. I've gone through the I tried most of the steps that I usually would have. I have three nodes.
01:00
Speaker 2
Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. I see. I see. [silence] Got this one, sir. And just to confirm, how many links routers do you have? All right. So for this one, sir, you mentioned that you just got a new modem for that one, the nodes really needs to be reset and reconfigured. And for us to proceed if we have the serial number of the
01:00
Speaker 1
Yes, give me one second. And I guess the parent parent node could be any node, correct? One is, Yeah, there is one that is connected. All of them are showing red. It's the Atlas six pack. Um, It's the intelligent, uh and, Yeah, the, Again, so I, I think any of them can serve as a parent node. So the one that is connected to the Uh modem right now. You ready for the trigger number? It is, 5 0
02:00
Speaker 2
Yes, sir, I assume none of your notes is currently wired directly to this modem router, correct? Af If I Aha Yes Yes sir.
02:00
Speaker 1
the DM identifier is D10M258C07766 first name is Sachin Lachman last name Malach is in Sam S is in john M is in mouse
03:00
Speaker 2
All right. Thank you so much for that one sir. So let me again verify the serial number to make sure that I got it correctly here. So it's 50D for Delta10M for Mike28C for Charlie07766. Is that correct? Thank you so much for confirming. And may I also have your first and last name? Thank you so much for that one. And what about your email address?
03:00
Speaker 1
Doc justin, J-U-S-T-I-N, at gmail.com. It's AT&T. And so one other thing I'd like to do, if we can get the time or if you can help me with this is actually turn off the router option within this modem router that is coming you know from their the website.
04:00
Speaker 2
Thank you so much for that answer. And may I know again, who's your new internet service provider? [silence] for their device. [silence] Yeah, regarding with that, one sir. Uh, I really do apologize since I'm not technically trained for their modem or device. Or if you sorry, if you really wanted to turn off the router option on their device, you really need to contact HM T. Okay. So, however, rest assured that I can walk you through on how to reconfigure this Linksys devices.
04:00
Speaker 1
Oh, okay. All of them are throwing solid red, correct? Yes. Try again. The one on the bottom, right? Okay. Person holding this, hold until I see a solid blue light, correct? A blue light.
05:00
Speaker 2
[silence] so [silence] just, uh just confirm you mentioned that the light on the parent node is currently showing solid red, correct? I see. And did you press the reset button on the node, sir, prior calling us? I see. So, for now [silence] yes, sir, so for now, we will just focus on the parent node, okay? So, again, sir, for reset, just press and hold the reset button and do not release it until you see the solid blue light. Yes, sir, that's correct.
05:00
Speaker 1
Now it's starting to blink a little bit. [silence] It went to solid blue, now it's blinking a little bit. I did. [silence] Ports, like Ethernet ports? On my modem I can do four Ethernet and then there's a red
06:00
Speaker 2
Uh-huh. And I assume the light on the node already gone to solid blue, correct? All right. And did you already release the reset button? Okay, that's great to know, sir. So for now, we will just wait for the light on this node to turn to solid purple or pink. Uh by the way, sir, I know how many ports does your modem have? Like LAN or internet ports on your modem.
06:00
Speaker 1
Fred Earl. On't port. Which I don't know what that is. It's plugged into. Yes. Um, number one. I do. I do. Modem or Well, adapter. I'll just get my. Laptop and get ready. But modem or router? Modem. Right?
07:00
Speaker 2
Got that one. And currently, this parent node is plug and into the LAN one on your modem, correct? All right. Got that one. And thank you so much for that information. And by the way, while observing or while waiting for the light on this main node to turn to solid purple. Just to confirm, do you have a computer that can be wired directly to your modem? All right, that's great to know. Secure. However, to your modem, as long as your computer has a LAN or Ethernet port. All right. Yeah. Now, for now, we will just wait for the light.
07:00
Speaker 1
Okay. I did that. It blinked a bunch of different colors and now it's blinking purple and now it's
08:00
Speaker 2
on this parent node to turn to solid purple, okay? However, we will use that lampshade later, just in case if this parent node won't be able to get online even though we have already reset it. Solid purple, okay. That means that the parent node is now on setup mode. So, let's try to reconfigure this parent node using the five press setup method. So, on the parent node sir, kindly press the reset button, five times within five seconds. That's like press, release, press, release, press, release, five times. Thank you. All right. That's great.
08:00
Speaker 1
Called it blue. Yes. If they can probably see the one flying that works, it would be putting out there right. You'd look. Belop set up. There's they look set up FED, which is the. Let's see the Mac address. Fed and then there's 60. Reloc 168 guest, which I imagine is probably the same.
10:00
Speaker 2
solid blue all right if the light on the node is still showing solid blue after a minute that means that we have successfully reset and reconfigure the parent node however again we will wait for another minute okay just to be sure [silence] yeah by default the Wi-Fi network of this parent [silence] yeah bellow setup and the last three MAC address of that node [silence] [silence] ah hold on sir uh don't worry I'll let me double check the
10:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, Yeah, okay. So I connect to that. Also, I'm seeing that my old network name, so in my house, my network was named Abraham LinkSys. That is still also being cast. Oh, okay. It is.
11:00
Speaker 2
Correct the full Wi-Fi name for that. parent node. okay, hol'. All right, so the default name of that parent node is underscore Vello setup. FED, like Fox ketika Echo Delta. All right. Mm-hmm. Ah, ha. It could be possible, sir, that, uh, before you changed the, yeah, before you changed your your internet service provider, uh, this parent node that we just reconfigured was not the parent, so it could be possible that one of the child node. right now was the, yeah, was the previous parent node. So, by the way, is the light on this new parent node still showing solid blue? That's great to know. That means that we have successfully reconfigured
11:00
Speaker 1
So I get the other nodes that you're saying. Uh, okay, let me go get them. I just need them all plugged in next to each other, correct? Okay. Give me a few minutes. Where do we put the other? I know one is downstairs by the bar. Do you know where the other one is. Would you look at that?
12:00
Speaker 2
Configure disperse mod. So let's now add or reconnect the child node to the network. So since this is for re-configuration, we now kindly move them next to the parent node. Yes sir. So you may unplug and relocate them to the parent mode for now. Thank you so much. That's correct sir. No worries sir. Just take your time. [silence] [silence]
12:00
Speaker 1
they both need to be plugged in.
13:00
Speaker 2
yes, sir, make sure that both child nodes are turned on.
13:00
Speaker 1
but blinking blue. Okay. Once they're flashing red. Yes, I do. I always.
14:00
Speaker 2
All right, that means they're that they are still booting up. So, we will wait for their lights to turn to flashing or solid red, okay. The same as earlier. All right, so once their light already gone to solid or flashing red, that's the time that you reset uh each child node. Yes, sir, that's correct. And by the way, sir, does your phone have a link? Okay, that's great. And I know the operating system of the phone that has the app. Is it an Android or iOS? Got that one. So, once we reconnected these child nodes to the network, we will then
14:00
Speaker 1
They are now both blinking red.
15:00
Speaker 2
log in into the linksys app for us to personalize the wi-fi name and password for your system okay hello sir how's and going there all right that's that's great to know so you may now proceed for the reset sir again for reset just press and hold and do not release the reset button until you see the solid blue light. [silence]
15:00
Speaker 1
What do you love about blue.
16:00
Speaker 2
All right, so we will just wait for their lights to turn to solid purple or pink. For in the meantime, can you like connect your phone that has the Linksys app to develop set up a FED network? And the default Wi-Fi password is
17:00
Speaker 1
Yes. working on it. Okay. Yes, that's purple. Correct. Yeah. And I see two new Vilops setups networks in my settings.
18:00
Speaker 2
Is labeled on the parent node? Thank you so much. Yeah, you can do that now, and just make sure that the phone is connected. So do not open the Linksys app as well, okay? Just connect your phone for now. Thank you so much. That's great to know, sir. And what's the light behavior now on the child node? I'm sorry, both are showing solid purple, correct? Amazing. Amazing. So that means that they are already on setup mode. So again, sir, we are going to reconnect this child node using the five
18:00
Speaker 1
Okay. on the parent made. Okay. Okay. Okay. I did it. Yeah, it's blinking white. It flashed a bunch of different colors and then now it's back to blue. And now... The... One of the other ones is blinking purple. The other one is still... Now they're both blinking. One is red. One is blinking purple. Yeah, they're both blinking red.
19:00
Speaker 2
So on the parent node, can you again press the reset button five times within five seconds? Yes sir on the parent node. Thank you so much for that one and is the light on the parent node starting to flash again? That's great to know and what about the? That's brilliant sir. That means that they are now trying to reconnect to the network. So we will just wait for their all right. So for now we will just wait for their lights to turn to.
19:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Yes. S is in Sam. C is in John. M is in mouse. dot. J. U. S. P. E. I. N. at gmail.com. They're blinking right right now.
20:00
Speaker 2
viously the same as the parent, okay? Thank you so much. and I really do apologize for this one, sir. While observing the light behaviors on the child nodes, may I have again, your email address? mhm. yeah, mhm. Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. so rest assured that the light on the child nodes will turn to solid blue, the same as the parent after one to two minutes. yeah, currently they are now like currently they are trying to connect to the system. Hello, sir. Are both child nodes still showing flashing our red? I see got this one and we will wait for another minute.
20:00
Speaker 1
Blue is still blue. Oh. The one that was blue is now solid red. Oh, yeah. [silence]
22:00
Speaker 2
that's great to know though don't worry rest assured that the light on that will automatically go to solid blue all right so we will just wait for they last or the other chanel
22:00
Speaker 1
Okay, let's go to solid blue. [silence] All right, just a sec. All right, there. Yes, just to confirm that. strong innovation conditions, agree. Enable Bluetooth, sure. Connect the router to your modem/source of internet. Notepad additional notes, solid blue, solid. Okay. Do you use the same Wi-Fi settings? Yes. Linking to my account.
23:00
Speaker 2
That's great to know sir Alright, that should do it. So I'm just to reassure that we have successfully reset and reconfigured the Entourage system. So, on your phone, sir, kindly now open the Linksys app. Mm-hm. And again, make sure that it is connected to the underscore Velop setup network. Thank you. Uh-huh. Mhm. Yeah, just press connected. Just press next. Mhm. Mhm. Thank you. [silence]
23:00
Speaker 1

24:00
Speaker 2
[silence] Hello, sir. [silence] How's it going there? [silence] Aha, got that one. [silence] Mm-hmm. [silence] So, just to confirm, sir, you're on the screen that says configuring your Wi-Fi network, correct? [silence]
24:00
Speaker 1
Something went wrong and we couldn't find your Wi-Fi settings, so you'll need to enter them manually for your other devices to reconnect automatically. Choose "Not yet." It's not stuck to configuring. Okay, now let's connect to your new Wi-Fi. Step one: Open your phone's Settings app. Okay, so not, I just go connect to the Wi-Fi? Yeah, it's not showing up yet.
25:00
Speaker 2
Ah, sir. If that's the case, yeah, kindly enter your Wi-Fi name and password, sir, on the fields. And don't worry, rest assure that you can just use the same name or sorry, the same credentials as you used before. All right. All right. Uh-huh. Yes, sir. Yeah, kindly reconnect your phone to the new Wi-Fi name of the network. Sorry, of the system.

Still on the doing bill up setup FED, which I'm still connected to. Let me close my... Again. Uh, I'm not seeing it. Oh, I'm on the screen that says now let's connect to your new wifi.
26:00
Speaker 2
Ah, try to reload or refresh the wifi on your phone. Can you go back to the link stick up? And, tell me if you are on the screen that asking you to name your wifi. So, that means that you have already personalized the wifi name and password. How about on your devices? Can you check if they can already detect the new name or the new network of the system?
26:00
Speaker 1
let me open up my laptop. yeah i did that i can try that again i'll turn it off while i log into my laptop uh yeah i'm sorry if my laptop is also not showing it but i see the lap set up a d in my laptop yeah the lap set up
27:00
Speaker 2
You can also try. Thank you so much for that, and Sir and you can also try to turn off and on the Wi-Fi settings on your phone. Oh, I see. Just to confirm your devices are still able to detect the default Wi-Fi name of the parent node, correct? Oh, I see. alright. So, however, on the Linksys app it asks you to connect to the
27:00
Speaker 1
It says, yeah, it says, now let's connect to your new wi-fi. Step one, go to your phone settings app and select your new wi-fi. Wi-fi name. Your wi-fi password. Step two, once connected, return to this app and tap next below. Yes. Okay. It's done. Connected to devi- set up. Yes.
28:00
Speaker 2
like your new or the Wi-Fi that you created. is that correct, sir? uh-huh. I see. That's kind of odd. However, your devices should now be able to detect the new name. Uh how about this one, sir? Can you connect your phone, I sorry, your computer to the Velo setup F-E-D network instead because we are going to access the web user interface and personalize the Wi-Fi name and password there? Uh sorry, is your laptop already connected? Okay, that's great. so now. So on your laptop, kindly open a browser and type in the address bar like the upper search bar.
28:00
Speaker 1
[silence] [silence] [silence] Why am I getting a warning when I try and access my router's mirror? [silence] [silence] [silence] But I've I'm I'm in now. It's loading the links to Smart Wi-Fi. [silence] I got to do the recovery [silence] so give me a second. [silence]
29:00
Speaker 2
http://My router.local
29:00
Speaker 1
um you're on in password hey wifi settings okay
30:00
Speaker 2
yes sir, so once you enter the five digits recovery key, uh you need to create a new admin password and set your expectation we are not creating a Wi-Fi password, okay, just the router password. And make sure
30:00
Speaker 1
[silence] Yep, and I'm at the Wi-Fi settings, and I'm ready to update the Wi-Fi name to my old one and the Wi-Fi password. [silence]
31:00
Speaker 2
[[silence]] Yeah, you already... Sorry, have you managed to log in into the web user interface? That's great to know, sir. And kindly press apply once you are done changing the wifi name and password, okay? Thank you so much. And by the way, sir, I would recommend uh not using the same wifi name uh like the AT&T router so that your devices won't get confused to which network they are connected, okay? Uh huh. Thank you so much. And don't worry, I'm sure that you can uh huh. Don't worry, I'm sure that you can just use the same password.
31:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, it's just, it says waiting. So it's just, you know, loading or something.
32:00
Speaker 2
Sir, just let me know once you have personalized the Wi-Fi name and password for the system, okay?
32:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. One, my phone, then, uh, it does say, waiting, it's loading on my computer. Okay. So I should, that's Wi-Fi Stand? Okay. Well, it's trying to connect on my phone. I'll do it on my laptop as well. Okay, looks like my phone is connected. I said, looks like my phone is connected.
33:00
Speaker 2
And that's fine, uh yeah, you may need to reconnect your computer and your phone to the new wifi name of the system. Yeah. The personalized wifi name. Umhm. Thank you so much for that. And, by the way, sir, I assume you want to manage... Yes, sir. I'm sorry. That's... that's great to know. So, yeah, and I assume you want to... [silence]
33:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, it would be ideal. Just go back to the app and press next. Okay. [silence] then it still says it's, oh there it goes, computers. Drop it. [silence] My phone says please wait. Looking for child nodes. [silence] Just looking for your child nodes [silence] soon as loading. [silence]
34:00
Speaker 2
Yes. And that's fine, sir. So I assume you're on the screen that states configuring your child nodes. So for that one, let's wait for one to two minutes for this one.
34:00
Speaker 1
network router then it has two child nodes how do I tell if it's the right one I imagine you yes no it's still in that setup and the screen it says your network router and it has a picture of a node and then it has two small pictures of other nodes and it says next or add more nodes okay it says remove old router system from your account
35:00
Speaker 2
[ silence ] confirm, are you already on the dashboard? Like on the, you know the, the on the, the link app let's go on? All right. Yeah, maybe press on next. And then press next again once you are in the help us help you screen.
35:00
Speaker 1
Okay, okay. Yeah. Is there anything else what you want me to ask? Uh- huh. Okay. Um, warning. That says, "Delete from my account" or, "I'll do it later." [silence] Okay. [silence]
36:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, and, yeah, you can just do it later, sir, and I'm going to set your expectation, sir, since you are with me right now. Uh, for the remote access or the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi access. I really do apologize, sir, but that feature has already been discontinued, okay? However, rest assured that you can still manage the nodes uh, using the local router password. The same password that you changed earlier when you tried to log in into the web interface. So, technically, sir, you can still manage the nodes using the Linksys app or web interface. However, this time we can only do it locally. Mhm. Thank you so much for your understanding. And are you or are you already on the screen that says home Wi-Fi is ready?
36:00
Speaker 1
looks like it yeah now i'm just back to the normal screen so i've got four devices three nodes it's yeah back to like the regular app perfect okay thank you for your help yeah thank you for your help thank you yep you too bye bye [silence]
37:00
Speaker 2
Oh, so I assume you. That's great to know that means that you're already logged in into the app's dashboard and that should do it. Thank you so much for your cooperation and patience. So for these child nodes, all we have to do is unplug them and then relocate them back to their designated locations. Okay? So once once they have been relocated. Sir, there's no need to press their receive button. So just wait for their lights to turn back to solid blue. All right. And is there anything else, sir? You're most welcome, sir. And it was totally at the same effort. Sir, thank you so much again for your time and cooperation. And again, thank you so much for calling lens support. You have a great day. Sir. Bye for now.
37:00
Speaker 1
All right, thank you. Almost my pocket. Thank you.
38:00
Speaker 2
I'm sorry, sir. You may now end the call.
38:00
