06:00
Speaker 2
concerning of the warranty status of your Linksys router, sir. Actually, it indicates in our system that this product is no longer under warranty and I really apologize that live support is no longer available. However, we have a paid support so I can still assist you configure your router settings, but... actually, it's dual band. Yeah, we can separate the bandwidth, sir, but as what I mentioned earlier, we are no longer offer live support for out of warranty devices unless you're going to proceed with the paid support and it's good for 60 minutes of troubleshooting.
06:00
Speaker 1
You have made a change to my connection in the last couple of weeks or so because my printer worked fine before, but now they're, the Epson people are telling me that what I'm getting is a 5G connection. So that means somebody had to have changed it from what it was which which worked to what it is now which does not work. So if you guys changed it, I want it changed back.
07:00
Speaker 2
uh i really apologize sir but we don't have the option to change the settings of your router since we can't connect it locally and then check if your other devices are working if there's only one device affected with this issue it might be the device itself might have in trouble have you tried to connect your printer to your other network or to a different network
07:00
Speaker 1
I'm getting nowhere I'm calling everybody I've been working on this now for a couple of weeks and uh I'm getting nowhere I just can't print and when I call the technical people at Epson they keep saying uh cancel the the the printer you have and and open a new one download new programs uh restart the computer they say all these different things and finally after a week and a half they told me that the connection was not right that it was uh it was connected 5g and the printer will not work with 5G. [silence]
08:00
Speaker 2
You can also try to use a different network server if your current one works. [silence] Yeah, I totally understand that one, sir. In my end, I can actually assist you to split the bandwidth of your wireless network, but then your router is already out of warranty, and to configure the router settings, you need to pay $15. But let me just ask you, sir, how about their other devices? Are they working?
08:00
Speaker 1
Yes, my, I can, my computer work. Well, I, I think so because my, my router is also supplying the signals to my TVs. You know, I, I get Internet service and, and it goes through my router to my TVs. And they all work fine. Okay, so you can't do anything.
10:00
Speaker 2

On the web interface there's an option where you can configure your wireless setting. So go to Wi-Fi setting to separate to separate the band. You can actually you can actually save that in once you're labeled.
11:00
Speaker 1
It's labeled Reset, okay. I, let me see here. I see something that's in red, but I can't read it cuz it's, it's just hard to, I guess it could be Reset. It's, it's a recessed button. You have to reset it with like a, pencil. Okay. Send me the instructions. Okay. Send it to me in in an email. Thank you. Bye. Mm-hmm . Bye.
