James’s House [Eng]

I am having trouble with the wifi.
There is a router/modem on a shelf near the bay window in the 2nd floor queen bedroom. Please unplug both of them. After that, please turn on the modem (the black one), and after 5 minutes, please turn on the router (the white one).
If this does not solve the problem, there is a possibility that the cable is not plugged in properly.
If none of the above solutions work, please send us a picture of your modem and router lamps so we can check their status.

I don't know how to use the projector.
There are instructions on how to use the projector in the black booklet in the living room of the facility.
Please refer to it first.

The hot water is not working. What should I do?
The solution depends on the situation.
- If there is no hot water in the kitchen or shower
Is the water heater switch turned on?

- If the hot water was running at first but stopped running in the middle of the day
There is a possibility that the safety device has been activated due to prolonged use of the hot water heater.
Please follow the instructions here to restore the safety device.

What should I do if the power goes out?
There is a possibility that you have exceeded the amount of electricity used. Please check the breakers in the kitchen and turn on the breaker if it is turned off.

Is early check-in/late check-out available? If so, is there an additional charge?
