### Where Time Goes

**Models Supported**

| Model | Calls | Avg Handle Time | Avg Overall | Avg Accuracy | Avg Protocol | Avg Communication |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E8450 | 1 | 22m 58s | 3.00 | 2.00 | 2.00 | 3.00 |
| LN1400 | 1 | 7m 16s | 3.00 | 3.00 | 2.00 | 2.00 |
| MX5300 | 1 | 5m 42s | 1.50 | 3.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 |
| MX4200 | 1 | 4m 24s | 3.00 | 4.00 | 2.00 | 2.00 |

The **E8450** call took significantly longer than others, largely due to extended troubleshooting attempts and a complex recovery method that wasn’t aligned with KB guidance. This call also had the lowest accuracy score, indicating a mismatch between the steps taken and expected outcomes.

**Problem Categories**

| Category | Calls | Avg Handle Time | Avg Overall | Avg Accuracy | Avg Protocol | Avg Communication | Focus Area? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NO TROUBLESHOOTING NEEDED | 1 | 5m 42s | 1.50 | 3.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 | ✓ |
| SETUP | 2 | 5m 50s | 3.00 | 3.50 | 2.00 | 2.00 |  |
| HARDWARE | 1 | 22m 58s | 3.00 | 2.00 | 2.00 | 3.00 |  |

The **NO TROUBLESHOOTING NEEDED** category shows a clear pattern of low protocol and communication scores. The agent struggled to collect essential product details and failed to follow a structured troubleshooting flow, leading to a passive and repetitive call style.

### Week-over-Week Movement

No prior-week comparison exists.

---

### What Went Well

- **Proactive callback setup**: The agent maintained a polite and patient tone and set clear expectations for callback during business hours.  
  > We recommend that you call us again when you are near the product.  
  [#LTS00131006](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131006/)

- **Correct technical guidance on mesh topology**: The agent correctly confirmed that adding a middle node can improve backhaul signal in a mesh network, consistent with Linksys KB for Velop systems.  
  > So what you mean is, you have two satellite units, A and B. And then, that point B will be a bit weaker, right?  
  [#LTS00131167](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131167/)

---

### Growth Opportunities

- **Failure to collect essential product details**: The agent missed multiple opportunities to gather critical product information (model/serial), which is essential for accurate troubleshooting and support.  
  > There is a model number on the bottom of the device.  
  [#LTS00131174](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131174/)

- **Incorrect troubleshooting procedures**: The agent used an incorrect factory-reset procedure (20–30s hold instead of 10s) for the EA8450 model, which is specified in KB documentation.  
  > Attempted factory reset with 20-second hold.  
  [#LTS00131191](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131191/)

---

### Next Week's Focus

- **Always collect model and serial numbers early in the call**, especially before providing any technical guidance.
- **Follow KB-specified reset durations**: For EA series devices, use a 10-second factory reset, not 20–30 seconds.
- **Implement structured troubleshooting flows** for mesh performance issues, starting with signal strength checks and admin UI access.
- **Reduce passive dialogue** by taking control of the conversation and clearly stating next steps.

### Technical Accuracy

- **Improvement**  
  > Failed to collect essential product details (model/serial) despite multiple opportunities, violating protocol for product-specific support.  
  [#LTS00131006](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131006/)

- **Improvement**  
  > Incorrect factory-reset procedure (20–30s hold instead of 10s) for EA8450 model. KB specifies 10-second reset for EA series.  
  [#LTS00131191](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131191/)

- **Improvement**  
  > Failed to verify warranty status or support eligibility before suggesting paid hardware purchase, violating protocol for product-specific support.  
  [#LTS00131167](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131167/)

- **Improvement**  
  > No diagnostic steps (e.g., signal strength check, admin UI access, firmware version) were performed to assess current network health for mesh performance issue.

### Coaching Moments

- **Strength**

### Escalation Lessons: What L2 Did

No escalated cases were identified this week.

---

### Coach Appendix

- The week’s highest-signal trend is the consistent failure to collect essential product details, which directly impacts troubleshooting accuracy and call efficiency. This pattern should be prioritized in the next coaching conversation, with a focus on reinforcing the importance of early model/serial collection and structured troubleshooting flows.
- The agent’s communication scores were consistently low, indicating a need to reduce passive dialogue and improve call control. Practical exercises on active listening and structured question framing could help shift this pattern.
