It wants to kick off and kick off. And I've been contacting my internet provider, uh Spectrum. I don't even know how many times this last month, it's been terrible. Now, four times already today, it's, you know, and it's charter or Spectrum keeps telling me that they're it's all connected at their end. So I just don't know what to try. And now I wanted to try to get on the app. What can I, what can I try? I mean, I, I can't, I had downloaded the app when I got this thing, and now today it says my password isn't right. It's incorrect. And I'm like, no, it's not. I haven't changed anything. So, can you help me at all? [silence]

Speaker 1
2 years what whatever plan? Service plan. Yeah. And that's how many? Oh, let me see here. I need my glasses. I don't see very well. 12124. I don't know if it's something in these connections or. I mean, I haven't changed anything. So I don't get it. But. I didn't. I tried to use it. Had the devil of a time. I put it back in the box, drug out my old one. And now charter's been telling me, you know, to switch the back to the this router. So I've done that. But I get the same problems. It's connection. It. I can get connected to the Wi-Fi, but it goes out and. It goes out and it goes out and it goes out and they've tested my my your move. It blinks red. It's red now. I mean it's off again. Blue. Blue. Blue.
04:00
Speaker 2
What is the light indicator? What is, yeah, what's the light color of your Linksys router? When that happens, do you observe that it's blinking red light? And until now, is it still blinking red or blue? but normally, what is the light color of your Linksys router when it's connected? then it clearly shows that there's something might be disrupting from the source, Internet source. we we could not um, I mean, blame just one side only of the device. What we always do, we always bypass the Linksys router first to isolate the problem properly. we always check or or include the Internet source, which is the modem that was provided by Spectrum,
05:00
Speaker 1
Uh-huh. Okay. it's one of the newer ones, she said. I've talked to them, it seems like, daily, and they show that it's connected on their end. But, you know, when did I get it? I think it's been maybe a year ago that they brought a different one? I've only had two of them from them and I've been with them 20-some years. But it was about a year ago when they brought that in a different DVR box or something. Well, it was before Christmas, I had a devil of uh
06:00
Speaker 2
we check if that's really working, but that really takes time. And we will check if your Linksys router does really work. But if it's going to function properly, then technically, then it should be your spectrum modem. How old is your spectrum modem? [ silence ] yeah, but since when did, yeah, my question is, since when did you got your spectrum modem? Since, when did you experience this problem, when the router or your Wi-Fi disconnects?
06:00
Speaker 1
over and over and over. And they kept telling me things were fine there. And I I said, I'm done dealing with this. I'm going to put it in the box, because of course, it's a busy time of the year. put it in back in the box, drag out the old one. And now here, what two weeks ago? Or about a week no, about a week ago, when I talked to him, she was asking about the old router I had. And I said, maybe, you know, I mean, I have an old one. That was the first one I ever had myself. And she said, well, it you need um better speed or whatever. So I had to pay an extra $5 for a double whatever the speed. And so I did and everything. And she says, but you need to um then she asked me about this router. And she said, you need to use that one because that one's capable of keeping up with everything. But lo and behold, it's just not. It's doing like it did before Christmas, just keeps throwing it off. And I keep calling them and calling them and I don't understand. Let me gra. It is my serial number, is where would they have that, that right on the front that's device. Oh boy. Actually, wait just a second here. Okay. All right. It is. Oh, wait. That's P. Oh, five oh six three oh two. Oh, sorry. I need to see if that number is right. I don't know.

Speaker 1
you know, I've, you know, I've been more than patient with this router and you know, I'm not going to pay for technical support on a product I bought of yours that basically never worked right, that I don't understand, but I can send you my receipt here. Good lord, I mean, mind you, this i i should have gotten things addressed when I was having troubles in like October with this darn thing, November. Okay. How can I send you a picture?
10:00
Speaker 2
I've only one year warranty. Since you've said you have an extended warranty from Walmart, we need a picture of the receipt. So we will validate here if it's gonna be accepted or not. So in that way, we will know if we can help you over the phone without charge or if it's gonna be invalid owner and then you need to [ silence ] Right. Yes, it should be.
10:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, so that's how we validate the warranty of the device. In Linksys, and I know every company has its own warranty policy. Now, if the device is out of warranty here, there's no free technical support. Okay, um, we can help, uh, you with our best, we can try, but for out of warranty device should be a paid service, or we can send instructions through email. All right? I know you don't want to pay if in case if it's out of warranty here, but you have an option which you can follow instruction. So, um, in order for us to valid... Okay, let me finish it first. In order for us to validate if if this extended warranty is really, um, valid, then you send us the receipt and we'll check and validate here on our end. Okay? I'll send you an email. I'll send you the email and here are the details on site. There's steps that you can follow. All right? If not, then that means you have other option agreement. Then, I can provide this option as a solution. All right? So, you can follow this process and you can send the receipt for us to validate if really valid. All that information's in line. All right? Make an option for us. I'm I think. All right. So, that's all for today. Okay. And thanks. Bye. If you have an option, then you can follow the step. Let me finish. All right?
