Oh hello Josh. I just need some straight forward product compatibility clarified. I have just bought an AC two two zero tri-band router and I'm having all sorts of difficulty trying to get it to work with my well of six mesh system. I've got the Mx550. And I went on last night and used your online chatbot and it says the two products are not compatible. Yet when I do my searches online outside of Linksys it says they are compatible and I and I don't know whether to return the product or not. [silence] No the the main route.
00:00
Speaker 2
Thank you for calling links are my name is Josh how may I assist you today? Now. 11:00:13.760,11:00:22.880
00:00
Speaker 1
the router is the main router is the AC 220 tri band uh router and I want to add on the VELLOX um uh nodes as as children Okay, uh sorry I'm not actually, I'm not beside the product at the moment I'll I'll call back later. I thought the AC 220 was was the um oh actually I'll show you, no wait a minute, just wait a moment. Um if I can master my iPhone what I can do is I can tell you cuz I bought it off Amazon so Amazon I'll know the model number on. Um uh two seconds, please, uh order history. Um new orders. Um. [silence]
01:00
Speaker 2
children. All right. As we may have the exact model number for this ribbon router, the one that you mentioned AC220, because AC220 is not the model number, that refers to the data transferred speed of the router. Oh, I see. Model. I understand. Uh huh. No worries. Uh huh. No worries, sir. [ silence ]
01:00
Speaker 1
All right. Okay. I bought the Linksys EA AC 8300 router. Okay. Okay.
02:00
Speaker 2
I see. So yeah, that's the correct model number, which is the eAsh A83-00, and I'm going to set your expectation that this router is not compatible with the MX5500. Since, uh, yeah, this is not one of our mesh devices. So, if you want to, if you want to use the MX5500 to the EA, the MX5500 will be wired directly to the EA because, uh again, the main router is not compatible with mesh technology. So, how about this one instead? You can purchase a...
02:00
Speaker 1
You'd think it had lead lined walls, but I'm having difficulty getting a good mesh with my current system, so I wanted a router with four antennas and then to push all the velop system and turn them all into, cause I've, I have used a two band MR router, but again, I've been struggling with that. And I thought I needed even more antennas to make it work in my property, which is why I went for this four band. Okay, I'll just have to return the product and um, I'll write a, a note to Amazon because if you go on Amazon and ask Rufus, Rufus will tell you that it's compatible with the velop six system. So, okay. [silence]
03:00
Speaker 2
i see. all right. yeah. for this one. yeah, no worries here. i'm gonna also set your expectation that this e-8300. it's still working as a router with this MX5500. however, they will have their own network, like they will have their own different networks, you know.
03:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. Yeah, no, I just, I kind of get that. Um, I, um, uh, can you, uh, you've got, can you see my mobile number? Uh, or do you, okay. Uh, is there a, I'll tell you what would be really helpful because what I want is a more powerful Linksys router that works with your mesh system that I can then use my four existing nodes as children rather than having to sacrifice one as a parent. Does that make sense? Uh, I'd love to know, because obviously I bought one model which is incompatible. I'd love to know, uh, what, what routers, standalone routers are compatible, compatible with your Velop6 system. If you, if you can wire me a link or something that would be great because I, I went on your website last night and I found it slightly bewildering. [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
Oh, work since again. So, so if you if you're gonna use this EA Anderson, yes, sir, according here on our yeah according here on our yes, actually, so this MX.
04:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, sure. OK, Josh, so it's the letter O and the number four, then the letter A, C, A, M, E, R, A at gmail.com. So, when you look at it, it says, O for a camera, because I'm a photographer by trade. [silence] That's great. Lovely. Thanks very much for your support and help. No, that's fine.
