01:00
Speaker 2
I see, I understand. [silence] May have the serial number of your main note. [silence] Main one so that I could double check the yes, the password, okay? [silence] No, no worry. [silence] No, no, no, serial number.
01:00
Speaker 1
wait hang on then then I yeah then I I need a photograph yeah but they're wrong hang on a second no yeah it's over there okay okay serial number three three
02:00
Speaker 2
Is labeled with an "N" and yes. There might be another sticker. Okay.
02:00
Speaker 1
C 1 0. M as in Mary, 2 8. C as in Charlie, 0 2, 4 4 6. Yeah, I thought I tried that. Hang on a second. Let me uh, that was my guess too. A D M I N. Invalid router password please try again. [silence]
03:00
Speaker 2
hm hmm hmm alright thank you let me check this real number alright so you have the mr7350 and going back to the um password by the uh default router password for login for this model is word admin uhm can you try the word admin a d m i n all lowercase okay I see in that case you've already created a a router password before but if you forgot it you can actually [silence]
03:00
Speaker 1
Right, the problem, whoops, what happened here? Oh, it's going somewhere. Oh. Oh, all right, so and enter the recovery key then, correct? Yeah, no, no, yeah. All right, let's see, what do we do that. Submit. Create a new admin. Well, I'll just take it, I'll put it back to admin. Right? Oh, okay. Okay, so I can't, I cannot just make it admin. Okay, that's fine. Let's see, what do we do that. [silence]
04:00
Speaker 2
There's a reset option on that page.
04:00
Speaker 1
Username. Uh and we'll try this, let's see if this works. See? Okay. All right. So, that got me in. Uh so now to add the new unit as a a node. It's on and and uh it's glowing red. I'm sorry? Yeah, it's about it's about 15, about 15 feet away.
05:00
Speaker 2
Okay the child and let me check the child node right now is it near from the main parent node? Is it uh the child node is it plugged in near to the main parent node to the main router?
05:00
Speaker 1
Uh... right. All right, well, hang on. Hang on. See, I understood, but to do that, I have to move my computer as well. Uh, well, actually, wait a minute. No, I don't. I can just move this. If, let's see. Let me take let me take a picture of the, uh, info on the back of this one in case we need it. All right. That's done with. So now I'll move it.
06:00
Speaker 2
I would suggest you can move it a little bit. You can have it 10 feet away. It should be near to the main router. This is only for setup purposes for adding it. And by the way, is this your first time adding this child node? Okay.
06:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so now it's right, it's it's actually sitting on top of the other one. This one, yes. I have another one already. The same, it's the same, it's the same, an AX 1800 or whatever that other number is. Okay, okay, yeah, let me get that for you.
07:00
Speaker 2
Uh-huh. Okay. And by the way, is this your first time adding this child node? Okay. Can I have the model number of the new one so that I can make a record here? Okay. And how about the serial number since it has a unique serial number as well? [silence]
07:00
Speaker 1
External number on that one, uh, three three Charlie, one zero, Mary, two Apple Apple, one three six nine nine. Uh, I bought it from a dealer on Amazon. Okay. It's it's flashing flashing red. Yes.
08:00
Speaker 2
Right? Okay. Thank you. Also, where did you buy this cell node? Thank you. All right, thank you. And by the way, um, later on. I'm going to send you an email where you can attach the receipt of this child node. So that I can update its warranty and support. It has one year hardware warranty and support. Okay? And, all right. And right now, what's the light again on the child node? Is it back to red light? Uhm, Okay, let's give it a fresh start. We're going to reset it first. So let's go to the back of the child node. At the back, you will see that there are
08:00
Speaker 2
reset button, you're going to press and hold it. And while you're pressing it, you need to observe the light color in front it will go through blinking red, light will go off and once it shows a blue light, that's the time you release the reset button. you keep holding until light goes off and once it shows blue, release the reset. [silence] All right, let's wait next to have a solid pink or purple light on this child node. It will go [silence]
09:00
Speaker 1
Right. [silence] Correct. [silence]. Correct. [silence] Right. Uh-huh. [silence] That's correct. [silence] Okay. [silence] Right. Right, okay.
10:00
Speaker 2
go through blue blinking blue and then solid pink or purple you will give it a minute or two. And while waiting, I believe this is not your first time calling Linksys right? And your phone number here, let me verify that is 1 818 49 74 117. And upon double checking it here, I'm speaking to Mark Linet. Is this correct? And your email is YRRplace17@me.com. All right, thank you. And I'll be sending the email communication Mark to this email so that you can attach the receipt of the new child node that you have so that we can update your warranty and support here, okay? All right.
10:00
Speaker 1
You just went, yeah. Going blue now, it just went red. Oh, was it red or- I guess that's purple. Yeah. Okay. Uh, hang on. Oh yeah, there it is.
11:00
Speaker 2
Is it blinking blue still? Kind of a pinkish red. Okay all right, so it's now ready. So, let's go next to your computer with the links Google Wi-Fi page. Let's add it from there. All right, on that link, Google Wi-Fi page, go to the very bottom part. You will see there a letter CA at the very bottom, right hand corner. Click CA. All right, click that. Okay. Link it to the Google Home app. Oh my God, why is it so difficult to do this? Okay.
11:00
Speaker 1
in activity. Yeah. Uh, let's see here. Router. Basic internetlig local advanced administration velop setup. Right. Just did that. [silence]
12:00
Speaker 2
it. And next, it will refresh the page. And then we'll go to connectivity. Connectivity is at the left hand side. All right. Click it. And then let's go next to CA router setup tab, the last tab. Yes, that's it. Then it was set up. Click that. And you will have there, to add the child node, let's click the button says, add wireless child node. All right. After clicking that, let's observe next the light in front of the child node. If it starts flashing pink or flashing red.
12:00
Speaker 1
Do I hit apply first? Okay. It's blinking right.
13:00
Speaker 2
not yet we're just going to observe the child node light is it blinking all right that's great so it responded to the adding process so we'll give it 2 to 3 minutes we'll now wait for solid blue on the child node
13:00
Speaker 1
silence I'm gonna guess that's red.
14:00
Speaker 2
Okay, it's still on the process of adding. So give it 1 to 2 minutes more.
14:00
Speaker 1
And we have blue. Okay. Yeah, it's oh, yeah, it did blink. It's now going back to red. Yes.
15:00
Speaker 2
Mm-hmm. All right, let's give it one minute more. It might blink again. And let's wait for another steady solid blue light. Okay. All right, waiting for solid blue. And is it solid red still? Okay, so solid red actually, it able to connect with the parent node but it is offline, no internet. For that, our work around is to restart your main parent node to refresh their connection. To restart is we're going to open the kyses found on the [silence] base of that for Mac. It is to press.
15:00
Speaker 1
All right. Hang on a second, because if I do that I'm probably going to lose you. So, let's see. Let me go in here first and turn off my Wi-Fi. Right, well, it shouldn't happen now because I turned off the Wi-Fi. All right, let me go do that. Oh, I'm sorry. The other -- okay. The child node is flashing blue. And it's -- no, it's -- it's -- it's gone solid blue.
16:00
Speaker 2
I'm going to have you unplug your main parent node for the power source, give it 10 seconds, plug it back in. Okay. Okay. Okay. No worries. I'll call you back in case we get disconnected. Okay. All right. Back inside. Flashing blue. All right. That'd be Okay, just continue to restart your main parent node. Oh, back now to solid blue. So we'll just going to check the child node if it's already in the network. So we're not going to restart your main parent node. Let's go back to your computer
16:00
Speaker 1
Yep. It, it apply? Okay. Yep. Okay. All right. So it's gone. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep, I'm there. Yeah, and actually says there's update available. Uh, oh, and that, it's the child note, yeah, the child node needs to be updated.
17:00
Speaker 2
in order the links to SmartWi-Fi page. Let's click the adding Child node. Yes. Then after clicking apply, refresh the whole page by clicking the refresh icon on your web browser at the upper left hand side. All right. And once it go back. Okay. Let's go back to connectivity and stay at the basic section, the first tab. And going to the right hand side of basic, you will see the firmware update and below is details. Click details. All right. I believe Okay. All right. Yes, please. Let's go ahead and update firmware over child node.
17:00
Speaker 1
So do I select it or just... I don't know. Yeah, there well, it seems to yeah, it seems to be just update. Um, I can't select it. All right, go ahead. As all update. Update firmware, blah blah blah, router boot. Okay, so, do you want to continue? Yes. Yes. Downloading firmware, but I don't see any progress on the line. Yeah. Yeah, that's good. Sure. So, there shouldn't be any progress bar or anything. I mean there's a there's a bar at the bottom, a big white
18:00
Speaker 2
A to close the page and write corrupt the firmware. All right. [silence] Um, they're should be but since it's not showing I'll just going to rely with that page if after the downloading firmware it will says restart next restart router And while waiting on Mark I'm I was able to send now the email where you can attach the receipt of this child node where you had purchased it from Amazon. All right.
19:00
Speaker 1
Would you expect it to take this long? [silence] Talablu. [silence]
21:00
Speaker 2
normally the update will take five minutes minimum and while waiting for the update the light on the child node is it blinking blue or just stays a solid blue light? okay during the update next it should be blinking blue Well, give it one minute more. We'll we'll wait for a new page to show up on that. Links to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi page. It's I. It's okay for now, since um, where we're going to wait for the method I was I was.
21:00
Speaker 1
Yes. Hmm. [silence] No, nothing. [silence]
23:00
Speaker 2
success restart or restarting router. so give it one minute more [silence] And no changes still on the page. Let's reload the page this time. Click the refresh icon.
23:00
Speaker 1
okay and then go back to develop setup updates are available details all right do I want automatic or manual yes then that's what I clicked last time update from where do you want to continue yes oh there we go
24:00
Speaker 2
Yes, please. Um, how about basic tab of connectivity and then let's check if there's a prompt update. Let's update it again. All right. [silence] Is there a a button that says update to click? Let's click that again, please. To update firmware of the child node. Okay. [silence] Let's check if there's now a progress bar. All right. So, just wait for this one to finish the downloading firmware and next[silence]
24:00
Speaker 1
[silence] The progress moved a tiny bit right at the start and hasn't moved since.
25:00
Speaker 2
that will be a realtor will restart or the child will restart. It's not yet moving. We'll just skip [silence].
25:00
Speaker 1
Yep. At least we got something. Wi-Fi. Yes, But by Wi-Fi. Still no progress. [silence]
26:00
Speaker 2
give it a time again since there's already a progress bar.
26:00
Speaker 1
sorry, [silence] yeah, [silence] yeah, [silence] Yeah, [silence] I have [silence] I've grown. [silence] Okay. [silence] sure. [silence] All right, so I quit that. [silence] home. [silence] Okay.
27:00
Speaker 2
Safari, okay. Do you have other browser aside from Safari? You have Chrome? All right. We're going to close that Linksys page for the meantime, using your Safari and we'll use your Chrome browser to access your main router settings. Could be something to do with the browser itself. All right. go to connectivity yes basic tab Excel. Okay. all right. Yes. Yes, please. Okay. all right.
27:00
Speaker 1
Well, that's weird. It actually backed up a hair. And now it's going forward. All right. No, not really. It moved, it moved about the same as it did before and then stopped. Yeah.
29:00
Speaker 2
the progress bar is now moving [silence] okay, we'll just give it uh two to three minutes for the progress bar to move [silence]
29:00
Speaker 1
has not it hasn't moved no it's not moving at all yeah okay back to connectivity
30:00
Speaker 2
and how about the progress bar? is it moving at all? it hasn't moved. There's, we'll try other ways to update the firmware on the child node. We're going to access its settings. Um let's close that downloading page. Like close the entire tab and then open a new one. Re-access the settings. All right, and next, let's check the IP address of this child node. Let's close connectivity by clicking OK button. And then go to troubleshooting option.
30:00
Speaker 1
[silence] Okay. Yeah. Okay, let me go up. [silence] There it is, yeah, I see it. uh 192.168.1.78.
31:00
Speaker 2
And then on the troubleshooting page, first tab is status and then devices, you will see the tables off devices. we will look for the child node that its name should be linksys 136999 and may have its IP address. All right, you may have the IP address please of your child node. All right, so next let us open a new tab on your browser. We're going to access the settings of your child node. But the address bar of the new tab type HTTPS
31:00
Speaker 1
wait a second .1.78 0 slash K. Oh, they went to they went to Google my IP address 192.1 68.1.7 8 IP address my.
32:00
Speaker 2
[silence] On too forward slash 192.168.1.78 forward slash CA and then letter CA, Charlie, Alpha. And then search for it. And let me know if you are routed to Linksys page. Sign in. [silence]. I think um, let me check, how did you access the main router setting? Is it using an IP address?
32:00
Speaker 1
the main setting I got to htp 192.org.168.1.1 forward slash UI forward slash 1.2.1.6.9.9 dot and then a whole bunch more. yeah 203. um. i I am i gotta sign out. okay. [silence]
33:00
Speaker 2
uh uh okay, all right uh okay, thank you for the details, and we're going to log out from the main relture settings, can sign out, go back to the main settings uh page and then at the top right hand side, you will see the sign out option. Let's sign out first. All right, and let's try it again, accessing your child node settings. So let's go back to another tab and then access.c.
33:00
Speaker 1
Charlie Alpha,
34:00
Speaker 2
TPS colon 2 forward slash 192.168.1.78. divide.exe same thing I let's try Safari browser for okay. icey got it 4. Okay. [ silence]
34:00
Speaker 1
Now this is. Church IP address. No. Yeah, that didn't work. Okay. All right so good. Yeah. Right. All right, hang on. Stay there.
35:00
Speaker 2
It didn't work. So this time the other option that we have to update firmware on there, child is to reset it back to factory settings, access it locally, and then we're going to manually update the firmware. So for the reset, okay. So we're going to press and hold again the reset button at the back of the found node. Same process, wait for the light to go off, and once it shows blue, release the reset button. Okay.
35:00
Speaker 1
All right. It's blue. Let me get back to the computer. Oh, or hang on. Let me. Oh, I can still see it. Yeah, there we go. Oh and yeah, I can see it.
36:00
Speaker 2
Alright, and let's wait for it to turn solid. pink or purple next.

37:00
Speaker 1
All right. Link's just set up. Okay, hold on. Oops. [silence]
38:00
Speaker 2
open wifi on your computer let's look for the default wifi name of this child module the links to set up a wifi name. Yes, select and connect to it. And if it asking for password, you may use the password at the bottom, I believe you had uh got a picture of the sticker, right, you can check its default wifi password. [silence] the password at the bottom of the [silence] cloud node. [silence] Yes. [silence] okay. [silence]
38:00
Speaker 1
Okay. [silence] All right. [silence] All right passwords one W48KW E-M-L-G. Show password before KYG. Okay. Hello? Okay, we've joined. [silence] Not one dot one. One dot one. Safari can't find the server. Try that again. Oh, I see what's wrong. Sorry. H-S-G-P-S. Say it one more time. [silence] Forward four times.
40:00
Speaker 2
Alright. Let's open a browser. Next. And let's access the settings over the child node. So we're going to use the HTTPS: two/192.168.1.1. Search for it. Yes. Okay.
41:00
Speaker 1
1 92 oh oh that's the problem 192 192 . 168 this connection is not private show details it doesn't seem to unto it uh I'll visit this website okay

Okay, sign in. Okay. Okay? Where am I gonna see that? [silence]
43:00
Speaker 2
app page. It will show a one-moment screen next. [silence] Yes, sign in with Word Admin since this is the child node. A-D-M-I-N, all lower case. [silence] [silence], all right. And let's click also the C-A at the very bottom right hand corner. [silence] [silence] And then let's go to Connectivity and then Basic tab then Details.

There is a button that says choose a file on that page right? On that basic tab. Alright, so before we click.
44:00
Speaker 1
Don't don't change my Wi-Fi. I am on my regular Wi-Fi.
45:00
Speaker 2
Choose a file. We're going to connect your computer to your network main Wi-Fi because we're going to re-access next the support website. So change the Wi-Fi connection from the child node to the main router. And we will change the Wi-Fi on your computer. So we'll disconnect from the main setup Wi-Fi name and connect back to the main Wi-Fi. All right, let's go back to your browser, open a new tab and search support.linksys.com.
