It looks to me like with this 2.4 thing in here. I can either connect to that or the other one, but not both at the same time, which does not help me. I need to be connected to both my computer and my printer at the same time. The last person I talked to had me do that, but I don't think that's working. [silence]
14:00

Now, I have two different Wi-Fi is showing up. 2.4 is supposedly my printer and it says it's connected. And then I have Nita 2 which I guess is my computer, although I thought the name of it was just Nita. I didn't think there was a 2 at the end of it.
15:00
Speaker 1
Connect Anita, too, please. [silence] Yes, please. Just connect. [silence] All right. All right. Can you please go back to the browser and try to... try to reload the page?
16:00
Speaker 2
Do I want to click connect automatically or connect? Now it says connected and secured, but of course it does not say 2.4 is connected and secured. Hold on. I had to go do something. Hold on. [silence]

Speaker 1
Okay. Can you open again, the join.zoho.com? Mhm.

20:00
Speaker 2
You know what, are you in the Philippines? Oh, I don't want to connect to anything outside of my country. You know what, I'm going to plaster links with how falsely all this was advertised to me. I it's ridiculous that I am having this much trouble and can't get my printer to work. I guess, I'll just have to return the router and I'll have to get one that was made in the United States if that's possible. [silence]
20:00
