## Week-over-Week Movement
- Improve protocol adherence (avg 1.75)
- Collect essential product details (model/serial) in all calls
- Follow KB-guided troubleshooting steps, especially for reset procedures
- Avoid non-standard recovery methods

## What Went Well

> **Accurate technical guidance on WPS button**  
> Correctly identified the blue button as WPS on a Wi-Fi 7 model [03:59–04:25], aligning with KB guidance.  
> [#LTS00131006](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131006/)

> **Proactive callback setup**  
> Proactively recorded customer's phone number and name to ensure continuity on callback [03:38–04:02], supporting case management.  
> [#LTS00131174](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131174/)

---

### Growth Opportunities

> **Failure to collect essential product details**  
> Failed to collect essential product information (model/serial) despite multiple opportunities [01:33, 01:43, 01:53].  
> [#LTS00131174](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131174/)  
> *What better looks like:* Always confirm the exact product model and serial number early in the call, using the script: “To help me guide you best, could you please share the exact model number and serial number of your device? You can find these on the bottom or back label.”

> **Incorrect factory-reset procedure**  
> Incorrect factory-reset procedure (20–30s hold instead of 10s) for EA8450 model ([05:07], [08:34]). KB specifies 10-second reset for EA series.  
> [#LTS00131191](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131191/)  
> *What better looks like:* Follow KB-documented reset steps precisely, verifying model-specific requirements before proceeding. Use the exact phrasing: “For your EA8450, the factory reset requires holding the reset button for 10 seconds.”

---

### Next Week's Focus

- **Start every call with a model/serial number check** – ask directly and document before proceeding with any troubleshooting.
- **Reference KB articles by name** when guiding customers through resets or configurations (e.g., “According to our KB article universal_mesh_full_rebuild.md…”).
- **Use structured troubleshooting flows** for mesh performance issues: signal strength check → admin UI access → firmware version → basic diagnostics before suggesting hardware changes.
- **Practice concise call control** – avoid filler words (“yes, yes, okay”) and restate the issue clearly after the customer describes it.

### Escalation Lessons: What L2 Did

No escalated cases were recorded for this week.

---

### Coach Appendix

- The week’s most significant trend is the **protocol adherence gap**, particularly in collecting essential product details and following KB-guided troubleshooting steps. This impacted both handle time and resolution quality, especially evident in the E8450 hardware case.
- Focus for next coaching should be on **structured data collection** (model/serial/warranty) and **KB verification** before executing troubleshooting steps, especially for reset procedures and mesh performance diagnostics.
- All evidence above adheres to quote governance rules – no new or reconstructed quotes introduced.
