12:00
Speaker 1
Um what I'm trying to do is I have an older Linksys router that I'm just trying to swap out. So I'm uh these new nodes this um the uh uh 6200s, I'm giving it the same one.
13:00
Speaker 2
Okay, Steve, it says here that you have two nodes, and the last technician that worked with you, you can't seem to access the interface. It also mentioned here that the recommendation is to swap it, but says that you can do it by yourself to swap the parent node. So are you calling for the same concern or a different concern, sir?
13:00
Speaker 1
local network configuration same IP address starting IP and then what I'm doing is I have named a different SSID and then when I'm done I I turn the other one on off and then I change the SSID I the SSIDs on the new ones to be the old SSID name so all of the devices that are connecting to that SSID automatically swap over to well to the new one what has happened now is I've got the second one configured when there's when I have it on a SSID that none of my devices know about I can access the UI through the web to do on the configuring once I swap it over to the to the old SSID and all my devices connect to the new 6200 router I can't access the UI anymore it just It kind of partially loads and, but I can't see my DHCP reservations or connectivity. I can't see anything. It's just open. And I've read that there's a CPU overload issue, so that's where I'm at right now. Okay, let's go back a little bit. Yeah, it's uh linked directly to my, T-Mobile Gateway. Yeah, I shut the old router off. Transcribe this audio from the right channel.
14:00
Speaker 2
Okay, let's go back a little bit, Steve, okay? You have an old Linksys router. You use uh the old wi-fi name to this Linksys router, and then um I want to make sure where is the MX62 wired, sir. Is it to this old Linksys router, or um okay, so you remove the old Linksys router and hook up this MX62 to that modem and use the same wi-fi name and password -- your old wi-fi name and password.
15:00
Speaker 1
Fix my. And I redid the cabling. Uh, actually I got it wired so it works with both of them but I just turned the old one off. I have them both working right now but they're different SSIDs, names. But like I said, when I turned the old one off and changed the 6200 SSID to the old SSID name and all the devices start connecting to the 6200, then it just gets overloaded and I I can't access the UI to do my like my DHCP reservations and things like that. Uhhh Uh. Right now I've got... I know I saw a list of devices. I think it's like [silence]
16:00
Speaker 2
uh-huh [silence] uh-huh [silence] uh-huh okay [silence] ow [silence] And uh how many uh devices do you have sir? Like uh those um 20 30 40

And just to confirm, you already swapped the parent node, right? This is uh, this used to be the child node and now this is a new parent node. Okay. And let me just check.
