Hey, how are you? I, uh, my name is Todd. I called in a few minutes ago and talked to a lady, uh, who gave me, uh, free support. She said, my router was still under warranty, and, uh, she got, my main router, rebooted, so it would work again, because it was, it was, uh, had a solid, whatever color. I forgot what color it was on there, but it wouldn't, oh, solid pink, and so it wouldn't run. We got it running, okay? So then, she, uh,

Look at it now. So it it goes it blinks red and then it went now it just went it tried blue it came on blue for like a second and now it's back to solid red. And now it's now it's kind of a green color. It's trying. Well, let me look it's hard to tell. It's not the bright blue that it's supposed to be when it's connected. Well, maybe it is now. My gosh, is it so the the main router when it's connected has a very bright blue color. This node just went completely dark. So, whatever light was on it because now there's a green light on. So, it's I don't know what it. [silence]
02:00
Speaker 2
mmm. Mm-hmm. A solid red. But it's blinking green. Mm-hmm. Uh huh. Like a dark blue. Okay.
02:00
Speaker 1
How's it doing? It's struggling. Let me see what the device list says and see if it's... It actually shows it online now. All right. So let me ask you this, because I've been working on this for 30 minutes to get that online. I have one more child node to connect, okay? So I assume I can go through the same process. So the problem I'm having is that the... Child node goes to... [silence]
03:00
Speaker 2
Um, uh.le that's uh good, sir. I see. Yeah, So, uh
03:00
Speaker 1
Eh with solid red light and then just stays there. Um, anyway, all right, I guess I'm gonna try to hook the other one up and see if I can get it to work. Yeah.
04:00
Speaker 2
All right, sir. You can actually try the other way to add a child node, sir. Um, I believe, uh, it was also indicated there, uh, in the email sent by the previous technician. So, there's the, uh, there's, 5-press method, uh, what we call the 5-press method. Uh, you just have to ensure that, uh, the, the child node is near the parent node while doing it. So, once the child node is on, setup mode, which shows, uh, purple light indicator or a pinkish red light. That means it's ready for setup or ready to be added to the network. You, by that time, you can perform the 5-press method. So, you just have to go to the parent node and Press the reset button on the,
04:00
Speaker 1
And that will try to find the child node. Okay, I'll. Okay, I'll look at that article too. Okay, thank you, have a nice day.
05:00
Speaker 2
a parent node five times within five seconds, not too fast and not too slow. It's just like uh normal counting at the same time you're pressing the reset button each second. Yes, sir. That's uh that's also one way of adding the child node. But in the event that it won't be able to connect, sir, you may need to reset the child node again. Anyway, um you'll know if the child node is communicating with the uh the parent node if it will start blinking after um after you press the reset button, follow the five press method on the parent node. All right, sir. All right, sir. No problem. You too. Have a great day. Bye for now. [silence]
